Fishing is not just a sport or a hobby, it's a way of life. To be out on the water at sunrise and see the beauty of God's creation in the beautiful colors as they come up over the horizon makes my office one of the best places to be. I have fished since I was 4 years old with my first Snoopy pole. I have loved fishing ever since, I have spent countless days running the bayous and bays of South Louisiana catching everything from fish, shrimp, and crabs. I enjoy sharing the knowledge that I have gained over the years with each of my clients. I have fished the waters of Shell Beach, Delacroix and Hopedale since I was around 8 years old. I would love to have you join me on an adventure of a lifetime. 'Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime'

    Couldn’t have asked for a better day on the water

    Full Day Trip – Inshore • 3 adults • 1 child

    Hands down, the best guided fishing trip we’ve ever been on. Lines stayed tight all morning long. This was our first fishing trip for our son and he had an absolute blast. Captain Don provided a top notch experience that we can’t wait to book with him again.

    Reported catch:
    Speckled Trout

    Awesome trip, very beginner friendly

    Full Day Trip – Inshore • 5 adults

    Had a few buddies from out of town who wanted to try fishing in Louisiana. Don somehow managed to put them all on a redfish and was great throughout the process. Would highly recommend and plan on fishing again with him sometime soon!

    Captain Don was amazing. He knew what he was doing and got us on the fish, even when we wanted to catch some big bull reds. If you’re in NOLA and looking to fish, he’s your man.

    Really good guy. Knows this area and conditions were terrible. He still made it his priority to find clean water and we caught fish.

    Brought 3 14-yo boys for a birthday. A little early in the year but we grinded out a mess of fish and packed the freezer. Easy parking. In and out from the marina maximized time on the water.
  • A satisfied angler gives a thumbs up next to a neatly arranged catch of fish on a cleaning station by the water.

    Great captain, great fishing, cap took very good care of us and has a great personality, made us laugh the whole time, was a perfect experience

What's biting with Peter's Net's Fishing Adventures in St. Bernard

If you're after Monster Reds, hit the waters of Biloxi Marsh and you won't regret it for a second. Black Drum can get gigantic there this time of the year, too.
