Incredible.

6 Hour Trip – St. Louis Bay on November 15, 2025

Captain Troutman exceeded every expectation when it came to scheduling, services, professionalism, and most importantly: fishing expertise. Black drum, flounder, trout redfish, simply non-stop action and fun with my group of friends as the Captain was constantly putting us on fish, rigging us up to cast back out, or helping getting the fish unhooked and into the boat. The best part is the preparation and care he ensures with the fish at the end, sending you home with an incredible dinner to cook that night, sea to table. To anyone in the area, you won’t regret going out on these waters with a true native and fish whisperer.

Full day with Captain Eli

6 Hour – Mississippi Barrier Island - 8:00 AM on November 1, 2025

It was easily the best fishing day I’ve ever had off the Mississippi coast. Captain Eli Troutman set the tone from the start—friendly, prepared, and completely at home on the water. We headed out under perfect skies, and almost immediately the snapper started hitting. Then came the cobia, powerful and thrilling, each catch made smoother by Eli’s calm, expert guidance. He kept us well-fed with snacks and drinks throughout the trip, making the whole experience feel effortless and fun. By the time we headed back in, the cooler was full and so were our smiles. Eli cleaned the fish for us at the dock, sending us home with beautiful fillets and even better memories. A fantastic captain, unforgettable fishing, and a day I’ll be talking about for years.

Capt Eli Troutman will put you on fish. Big fish.

8 Hour – Mississippi Barrier Island on November 1, 2025

I’ve booked Capt Eli for inshore MS sound trips, offshore trips, and Chandeleur Island trips. I don’t think I’ve ever had more fun fishing, and my PR trout and redfish were both caught with him at the wheel. He grew up on the coast and I think he can smell where the speckled trout are - maybe that comes with the last name. He consistently puts his customers on limits of stud trout. If you want to fish the MS/La coast, look no further because you just found the best charter out there.

Captain Troutman’s name says it all!

8 Hour Trip – Chandeleur Islands on November 8, 2025

Captain Troutman's charter to Chandeleur Island was epic! He knew exactly where to find the fish, and we crushed it with tons of redfish and the biggest speckled trout we’ve ever seen. The man is very knowledgeable on the local ecosystems, history, and wildlife. His expertise and friendly attitude made the trip unforgettable – I highly recommend booking with him for an amazing fishing adventure!
