Fishing is ALWAYS hit or miss anytime/anywhere. I fished Lake Calcasieu (also called Big Lake by locals). The speckled trout & redfish have different schedules on best times of year to fish so if targeting a certain type do your research for this lake to choose wisely!

Be sure to apply lots of sunscreen, wear a large brimmed hat, and long sleeve fishing shirt to protect from the sun. If you have issues tolerating extreme heat, bring shammies.

Yes I would recommend fishing the Lake Charles area. There are abundant game fish and miles of fishing grounds to explore.
