If you're ready to discover fishing in and around Lake Pontchartrain, Slap Yo Hook Fishing Charters has you covered. Your guide for the day is Capt. Steve, so you'll benefit from his extensive sportfishing experience. This is a veteran-owned and operated business.

These waters are known for Tripletail, Jack Crevalle, Catfish, Atlantic Croaker, Largemouth Bass, Black Drum, Redfish, Weakfish, Alligator Gar, Speckled Trout, Flounder, and more; with any luck, it won't be long before you hear, "Fish on!"

You may need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so it's best to know what to expect in advance.

It's always a good idea to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and non-spray sunscreen. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but please avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

Fun and Easy Day of Fishing!
6 Hr – Fishing Trip on October 19, 2026 • 2 adults

Had a great day of fishing with my nephew today. Captain Steve is a true gentleman, intelligent, knowledgeable and passionate about fishing. Knowing we wanted to target specs and reds, he brought us to honey holes, structures, and marshes in search of our prey. And despite windy conditions, we caught fish! For folks looking for an easy to get to, relaxed fishing experience, with a high chance of catching success, Captain Steve in Slidell is your man. Highly recommend a six hour charter. The morning of fun on the water flew by so fast! Will definitely be booking again with Captain Steve, soon.

Reported catch:
Flounder
Speckled Trout
Atlantic Croaker
