Captain
James Kennedy

Member since July 2020 Slidell, United States

Background: Captain James Kennedy's been fishing waters of South Louisiana his entire life. He's a native of this area and a Coast Guard licensed captain. As a young boy, he had a dream of fishing professionally. After many years of fishing in tournaments he succeeded in qualifying for the 2006 Bassmaster Classic and spent the next few years fishing nationally as an Elite Series fisherman. This was a milestone achievement he would always remember. Spending so much time on the Louisiana local waters, he's become an expert on them. Today, he enjoys the most taking other people out and watching them catch fish. Reach out to Captain James and together enjoy unique fishing in South Louisiana!
Techniques: Captain James usually fishes popping corks for Redfish and Speckled Trout. In the right conditions he'll use artificial lures. Sight fishing in the fall is one of his favorite styles.

Specs, whites and sharks

Breezy tuesday

Jul 26, 2023 Slidell

Set out with the Moriarity team today to chase trout. It was a little bumpy in Lake Borgne but the breeze kept us breathing. Its hottt right now but the fish cooperated and we boxed some nice trout. And sharks. The bull sharks seem to be everwhere but they are fun to fight.
