Born and raised on the Bayous of Lafitte (Barataria Basin). There is no greater way of life or joy than to share our heritage with those visiting New Orleans. I love to see the light in people's eyes as they land their catch - whether it is their 1st or 100th fish, it is always a pleasure to share a bit of the Bayou with others. I own and operate Big Dog Fishing Charters and have a team of Captains waiting to show you a great time!

    Kapetan Beri je bio fantastičan!

    4 Hour Trip (PM) • 2 adults

    Riba nije htela da grize, ali kapetan Bari je uradio sve što je bilo potrebno da nas dovede do gladnih riba. Ulovili smo ribe i proveli se odlično. Toplo preporučujem kapetana Barija! Ovo je bio moj prvi put da pecam u Luizijani i ovo putovanje mi je garantovalo da ću se vratiti.

    Sunrise Departure - 6+ Hour Charter • 4 adults

    Излет је био одличан, капетан нас је одмах довео право на рибу, а када би риба успорила или стала, преместио нас је на друго место где смо их поново хватали. Провели смо се одлично, капетан је био забаван и веома искусан. Хвала на одличном времену проведеном на води, Б

    Maksimalni ulov oba dana!

    Sunrise Departure - 6+ Hour Charter • 2 adults

    Риболов је био тежак у ово доба године због непредвидивог времена. Спор почетак, али смо се одлично снашли оба дана! Big Dog Charters је имао више водича, не само једног. Имали смо Чада, мог главног човека од сада па надаље. Планирао сам да пецам само један дан, а на крају сам пецао 2 дана. С њим не можете погрешити!

    Uslovi nisu bili idealni, vetar je jako duvao, ali smo ipak ulovili gomilu ribe. Kapetan Mark nas je i pored vetra od 20 milja na sat doveo do ribe. Deca su se odlično zabavila.

    This was the second time we fished with the captain. Marina was nice and clean, good boat, nice gear. We ripped some lips and murdered sheepshead. We will be back in April.

    Kapetan je bio fenomenalan i učinio je izlet zabavnim čak i kada nismo hvatali ribu! Brzo menja mesta ako nema akcije. Definitivno vredi svakog dinara!

    Kapetan Mark je bio stvarno kul! Naučio sam da nikada ne treba nositi bananu na ribarskom brodu! Mark je pobrinuo da ulovimo ribu, da se zabavimo i da budemo bezbedni. Zaista se potrudio da naša 12-godišnjakinja bude u centru pažnje i da doživi dan koji nikada neće zaboraviti!

Šta se peca sa Big Dog Fishing Charters – 24' Boat u Lafitte

Jesen ne oskudeva u raznovrsnosti vrsta koje možete upecati. Od Bassa do pastrmke i Druma, imaćete veliki izbor. A kako vlažnost vazduha polako opada, ovo bi moglo biti idealno doba godine da provedete vreme napolju pecajući sa porodicom.
