Spend the day in St. Bernard Parish fishing with Capt. Jaron Thomas and get hooked on the beautiful fishery of Southeast Louisiana!

Depending on the time of year, you might hook into Speckled Trout, Flounder, Black Drum, Redfish, Sheepshead, along with a few other surprise catches. On the day of your trip, you're likely to drift and fish with popping corks and light tackle spinning setups. 

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. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty stomach!

You'll find yourself aboard a 24' Skeeter with a capacity for 5 passengers. It has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Capt. Jaron has rods and reels for you, along with live shrimp!

You will need to buy a Louisiana Saltwater Charter license. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain.

Don't forget to bring bottled water, sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be water on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Fishing In LA With Capt. Jaron will make it easy for you to go fishing in St. Bernard. So, how about booking that trip?

    Fishing w Captain Jaron

    Breton/Chandeleur Sound Trip on November 24, 2025 • 2 adults

    was a great experience. i’ve fished plenty and the best guide to have is one that wants to catch more fish than the anglers. Thats the case here. He kept us moving and active. Most importantly he was good with my 9 year old son who has more questions than a game show. We will be back!!!!

    We had a spectacular day catching Redfish with Captain Jaron. We had our limit by 9:30am, he kept the action coming by moving to the next location when he sensed we covered the waters. Fished all day and released 3 limits of reds 16” to 34”.

I began fishing when I was 4 years old and have fished nonstop since then. The outdoors is my passion and I enjoy teaching about it more than anything.

    I had a recent 3 man trip with a client of mine the last weekend of January. We set out around 1:30 and were able to catch 20+ redfish within a couple of hours. They were also able to catch some flounder and speckled trout as well. The weather is right and the high water temp has had the redfish wanting to eat lately.
