Review with your Captain ahead of trip. Be respectful, they are up wayyy before you get there. As a Charter Passenger you can purchase a three day salt water and a three day fresh water licenses for total of $30- out of state licenses. Bring rain gear- jacket and pants. Wear non marking water proof shoes/ boots. Bring a neck hoodie, extra layer. Weather changes fast and isnโ€™t always accurate.

Red fish are plentiful and stacked up. They are beautiful and hit extremely hard on artificial baits.

Just bring some water and enjoy the variety of stuff youโ€™ll catch plus Mackie knows where they all are at every tide stage and with the wind and sun. Heโ€™s really an expert on the place and has been fishing it since he was a kid. Really cool to just listen.

It can be tough, but a good guide can put you on them (just can't convince them to eat!). Be prepared for hot weather (sunscreen and lots of hydration).

The guide was fantastic and put us on fish immediately. It was perfect for my daughter who was a rookie. If you are looking for bigger and more specific type of fish then you will want to choose the time of year that you go out of Slidell.

The environment is beautiful, salt water species, some fresh water mixed in depending on salinity levels means you never know what you.may catch. The lakes and bayous are huge...dont forget bug spray ( though capt. Had some to use)
