Trip Summary

Had a great day fishing the Louisiana marsh with Omar and his veteran crew. The redfish bite made us work for them, but we stayed after it and put some quality fish in the boat. Our Lafitte fishing charters put anglers in the heart of the Barataria Basin, just outside New Orleans. Always an honor having our veterans aboard and sharing a day on the water!

Covered a lot of water today from Lafitte all the way to Bay Jimmy and the Grand Isle area. Fished marsh drains, points, bays, and channels with both live and artificial presentations. Water quality ranged from stained to fair, but we never found a consistent bite. Saw very little bait activity and no concentrations of feeding fish. Ended the day without a quality redfish, trout, or black drum. Hopefully the pattern improves once the winds settle and the fish reposition.
