    Fantastic trip Lots of memories

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Captain Frenchy is THE most enjoyable captain I have ever fished with on any other charter I have been on. Being we are from Pennsylvania, we were inexperienced in the techniques to catching these Southern fish. Captain Frenchy took us out, taught us all his knowledge, and we had fish in the boat in 10 minutes of putting our lines in the water. AMAZING and Memorable trip I Highly recommended taking Captain Frenchy out on a charter. Its like fishing with an old fishing buddy.

    My son and I, fishers from Florida, had a great time fishing with Captain Frenchy! We learned a lot about the differences between our waters, and really enjoyed his knowledge and the amazing scenery. He definitely leaned into our preferences, going fast for my teenager and letting me check out the cool fort. We caught our first speckled trout, a croacker, and a blue crab. It was really apparent that he was willing to work hard to find the fish (his ability to spot the fish was crazy!) and tailor the trip to what we would enjoy. We will definitely look him up next time we're in NOLA. Thank you captain!

    A knowledgeable guide.

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults • 1 child

    Captain Frenchy takes his work very seriously. He guided my 14-year-old daughter and me on a day when the odds were against us; the weather hadn't set us up for success, and we knew it would be a tough outing. However, Frenchy has an expert eye for reading the water and put us on fish right away. When the action slowed, he worked tirelessly, moving us again and again while using every trick up his sleeve. While the fishing was challenging, we spent a beautiful morning in the gulf swamp seeing gators and wildlife. We truly enjoyed Captain Frenchy’s company, and he even gave us a great tip on where to grab fresh oysters on our way back to the city. All in all, it was money well spent. Thank you, Captain Frenchy!

    Fun morning on the water!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 1 adult

    Had a lot of fun with Captain Frenchy! He loves to be on the water and he loves to put people on fish! I’ve had charters in the past where the captains seemed indifferent if we caught anything or not, but Captain Frenchy did everything he could to find fish and we ended up catching several different species despite some very tough, windy conditions. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone fishing near New Orleans!

    Good Times!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    While we broke the record for the least amount of fish on any of Frenchy’s excursions, you would never know it! We had an amazing time! Weather was beautiful, we saw wild hogs, gators, dolphins, you name it! We still caught enough fish for what we expected but Frenchy is such a professional, his goal is to catch dozens on every trip! Would highly recommend. 😊

    We “smoked” the speckled trout. Caught 97 of them and released half our catch

What's biting with Captain Frenchy in New Orleans

The fishing is still very good, with Bull Redfish and Flounder continuing to bite well. As fall transitions to winter, cold fronts push bait out of the marsh. The fish are hungry and feeding up it gets cold.
