Great day of fishing! Highly recommend it!

If you book through Jean Lafitte harbor make sure you ask for Jason Toombs. If you know how to fish you will slaughter them with him as your captain and he is fun to hang out with on the boat.

We were scheduled to go out of Grand Isle but had to change to Lafitte due to T.S. Cristobal. The conditions were less than ideal but Captain Jason managed to help us fill the box when the fish didn’t want to bite. He also managed to avoid and out maneuver the rain all day. Great with the kids and super knowledgeable on the water.

We booked with JLH charters in order to participate in an annual tournament out of Sand Dollar Marina.  We ended up with an eight man crew… without out the deckhand (Mr. Knuckles and captain Jason).  The 30’ft boat was just right for the trip as we ventured across the bay from Grand Isle and into the marsh seeking Speckled Trout and Redfish.  The ride would’ve been much too rough in a typical bay boat had it not been for the long well built aluminum hull that rocked and rolled us over 7 mi of choppy waters.  We hit some key spots that obviously had provided many schools of specks for the taking… we just hit it on a slow day.  These guys knew what they were doing by providing a professional attitude, knowledge of the area, teaching us all a little something about the basics (esp. the teenagers) the bait we needed (even trolled for shrimp) and a well rounded selection of music.  One regret is that we forgot the sunblock so we definitely got our daily dose of Vitamin D!  Regardless, we had a word of prayer and as Pslam 121 says, “the sun will not harm you by day nor the moon by night”.. The Good Lord kept all our skin from baking too much.  Captain Jason and Mr. Knuckles were so kind after we’d fished hard all day as to bring us by a pretty cool private beach on the way back to the dock.  The younger guys really enjoyed running around and exploring the place… even had a close encounter with a dolphin who’d been swimming around behind the jetties.  Overall we had a great time and Captain Jason along with Mr. Knuckles made it happen in a big way.  We all caught fish, took some excellent pictures, and were blessed with a moment in time we’ll always remember.
