There's a fish with your name on it in St. Bernard and Capt. Andy Jones Fly & Spin Fishing will help you catch it!

Having logged hundreds of hours on these tides, Captain Andy Jones is prepared to put you on fish. September to March are great months to fish Louisiana Reds with the biggest bulls coming into the marsh in January and February.
Whether you're looking to throw a fly in front of a 40' Bull or spin fish points and banks, Captain Andy will guide you into the species of fish you're pursuing. Venture into the scenic waters and flats of the most productive watershed in North America- the Mississippi River Delta. If you're a seasoned angler or it's your first saltwater experience, you're sure to have a great day out on the water with Captain Andy.

These waters are known for the largest Redfish in the world, Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, and Alligator Gar. With Captain Andy, you'll have tight lines in no time. He usually practices catch and release, unless you would like to take home something in slot for dinner in which case he would be happy to filet it for you.

Captain Andy will tailor the trip for the experience you are hoping for…no cookie-cutter trips here! Multi-day trips will explore different areas daily. You can fly fish, and use spinning and popping techniques with light tackle, bait, or a mix of all to keep it fresh and interesting. You will improve your techniques throughout the day and will leave the trip a better angler.

You will be fishing from a Maverick HPXV technical poling skiff with a 90-horse Yamaha outboard motor. This watercraft is considered one of the finest in the industry. Its carbon fiber hull makes it lightweight with minimal draft so your guide Andy can pole you in stealth mode to those tailing reds in the skinniest of water. It can comfortably accommodate 2 guests, perfect for couples or fishing with your best buddy.

You might need to get a local fishing license before the trip.

Half Day Trip with Captain Andy
Half Day Trip on February 11, 2024

I had an amazing trip with Captain Andy in February 2024. He was extremely professional and also a great guy to hang out with. His boat is great, his equipment is great, and his personality is great. Even better, he knew all of the spots and put us on the fish every time. We went fishing for Redfish and finished the half day after catching six absolute monsters. Captain Andy offered great advice telling us how to get bit and bring the fish in the boat. He provided truly white glove service and when I head back to New Orleans I will for sure be contacting Captain Andy again. I highly recommend fishing with Andy!

Full Day Trip on January 14, 2024

My second time fishing with Capt Andy and I couldn’t say enough about him. Enjoyed my first time fishing with him so much had to book him again. Be it Fly rod or spin gear Capt Andy has you covered! Couple things I really appreciated about my time with Capt. Andy, outstanding work ethic. He works hard to give you the best day possible given we are always at the mercy of Mother Nature. Secondly, Capt. Andy is just a straight fishy guy with fantastic vision. This guy can spot a fish a mile away. He was an excellent communicator and very patient. He can talk you on to a fish even if you don’t see it. You will absolutely learn from this guy. Wealth of knowledge and happy to share. He not only put me on fish, but also did a great job of improving me as an angler. I’ve fished plenty of guides in the past, rarely will a guide give the level of attention I received while on his boat. Finished the day with my personal best bull Red Fish and also a better fisherman in general! If you’re looking to experience the Louisiana marsh, I would highly recommend Capt Andy. First class experience can’t wait to be back on his boat!

Full days with capt. Andy
Full Day Trip on January 3, 2024

This trip was nothing short of amazing minus a little chilly weather. Zipping around the flats and getting put on fish every day. This was my first guided red fishing trip. I had a little difficulty seeing fish until capt. Andy pointed out exactly what I should be looking for. He instructed me on how to cast for these fish, set the hook, and fight these fish. I learned a lot and had a blast catching these tough fighting fish. Would 100% recommend a trip with capt. Andy.

The most fun and most fish!
Full Day Trip on December 5, 2023

I have only been Red fishing in Louisiana once, but the bar was set high by Captain Andy Jones. He was a great teacher showing me how to spot fish, gave casting and stripping tips, he communicated great and told me what to expect. He has spent years learning the marsh and works his tail off finding the fish. He is very knowledgeable on flies, lures, gear, and what you need to make the day successful. I fished with him for 5 days and I had shots at sheephead, black drum, and red fish. The number one thing is he is personable, easy going, on point, had a great lunch, and he makes fishing fun! I cannot wait to get back down and fish with him again!

Full Day with Captain Andy
Half Day Trip on April 5, 2024

Had a great day with Andy. Trip went as planned, on time, and Andy worked hard all day. Andy did a nice job of asking questions prior to trip in order to customize our day to the type of fishing we wanted to do. He put us on plenty of fish and gave detailed instructions, when needed, but knew how to not be overbearing...good bedside manner, I guess you might say.

I've been fishing in LA with my own boat since 2018. Being on the water is my passion and I consider it a privilege to share my passion with other anglers. I have a bachelor's degree in organismal biology and a master's in education. Teaching and helping others is also a passion of mine and I bring those skills with me on the skiff. Sight fishing for reds is definitely a team sport and I am good at communicating with the angler on the front of the boat to successfully see and catch fish no matter their skill level.
