These waters are known for Speckled Trout, Spotted Seatrout, Redfish, Flounder, and more – with any luck, it won’t be long before "Fish on!"
On these trips, it’s common to jig using light tackle.
Families who love fishing together will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Also remember to bring snacks so that nobody gets cranky on an empty belly!
Your boat for the day is a 25’ Bay boat with space for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
Your captain will provide rods and reels, as well as lures. Live bait is available.
Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.
You can’t go wrong when you bring bottled water, sunglasses, and sunblock. If you’d like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation.

Really enjoyed this experience! Nick was the most professional guide that we have fished with. He was ready to adapt to any situation to catch fish and didn’t stop until he found them

My son and I booked a trip with Captain Nick. We had great communication, a good safe trip and we caught fish. Captain Nick kept us on fish and away from the storms

The speckled trout were biting and we caught the limit in 3 hours with non stop action. Could not have asked for a better day on the water!

Wasn’t a dull moment, it seemed like at least one person in our party was reeling in a keeper every moment Captain Nick was everywhere from baiting, netting, of course getting us off bottom snags can’t forget filleting the catch of which we limited out Highly recommend using Capt Nick

My father started guiding inshore trips in the early 80s on Calcasieu Lake in Southwest Louisiana. In 1984, my parents started Big Lake Guide Service on Calcasieu Lake. I came along in 1987 and it seems like I’ve been in a boat ever since. As a child my parents employed up to 12 captains. As scary as it sounds, you could say I was raised by fishing guides, literally and figuratively. They were all like my older brothers. My parents somehow cultivated an environment of competition and respect on their dock. Competition amongst each other and respect for the customer, themselves, and the fish. They all strove to be the best on the dock every morning. The best fisherman, the best with customers, and the best conservationist. These lessons have stuck with me and I’ll carry them until I’m long gone.

Child Friendly
I have no age limits on taking children fishing, however, I do believe the shorter trips are more enjoyable for them. I’ve got two of my own, and believe one of the best things an adult can do is take a child fishing.
