Great day of Fishing
Focused Tide Window on May 28, 20262 adults1 child

We have chartered with Captain Nick before and had a great time, but today was above and beyond. Nick got me and my 7 year old son on fish quick and we had a 2 person limit of trout in an hour. I have had some guides who pull up and head in, but Nick switched target species and kept fishing. Awesome experience with Captain Nick.

Last day
Extended Window (Standard Trip) on September 29, 20252 adults

We decided to take a trip the last day. As things go it was going to be choppy so Capt. took us out a smother dock. The fishing was a little slow but that’s fishing and Capt. did all he could do and it paid off we caught fish -trout, couple of reds and a flounder so was a good day. For inshore you’ll be glad you booked this one.

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.
