Get ready for a day of adventure fishing for Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, and Sheepshead in the waters around Vermilion Bay, South Louisiana. As the name suggests, this is one of the best places to fish for Redfish, and with a choice of light tackle or fly fishing you can be sure to land your perfect fish in your favorite style.

You’ll be fishing out of a 2023 Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid Bay Boat that’s outfitted to the gills with the most sophisticated electronics and equipment available on the market. It’s like a Ferrari on the water! This boat can run faster than traditional flats boats, increasing your fishing time and the range of areas you can fish in a day.

Fully loaded with the captain and 2 to 3 anglers, you can go anywhere other bay boats can go, with speed and comfort. It only drafts 13″ of water inshore and can go offshore to fish for big Cobia, King Mackerel, and Tripletail on those nice summer days. This is the best equipment money can buy!

Captain Troy Nash is one of the very best captains out there. Louisiana-born and with 30 years experience running charters all around the world, he is an incredibly skilled and seasoned captain who brings every ounce of his experience and local knowledge to each trip he runs, taking you to the very best spots to make sure you land exactly what you are after. He is always happy to do everything he can to let you get as much as possible out of every trip.

I have been in the charter fishing business for over 40 years now and have held a 100 ton masters license for the last 34 years. I have worked as a guide all around the world, from the British West Indies and the Florida Keys, to Austrailia’s Northern territory and have fished for just about everything out there. I love fishing and teaching others how, and nothing makes me happier than taking people out for a great day on the water Over the years I have featured on ESPN2, Florida’s Sunshine Network, Fox Sports and Outdoor Life Networks “Addictive Fishing” show with host Capt. Blair Wiggins five times, including the first show ever produced.
