About Your Trip

Despite being partially erased by Hurricane Katrina, the Chandeleur barrier islands remain an extremely productive fishing ground and one of the best places to hook up on prize-winning fish off the Gulf coast of Louisiana. Captain Rich has years of experience in this area, and is ready to take you on the trip of a lifetime.

On this trip, you'll target Tripletail, Sheepshead, Redfish, Cobia, Red Snapper, Black Drum, and Flounder—all of the nearshore Gulf
gamefish in one place! You'll be chasing these fish aboard Captain Rich's 26' Blackjack center console—the perfect boat for chasing big-time Reds and other gamefish in these waters. It has everything you need for a blue-ribbon experience, including Simrad electronics and radar, Blade Power Pole, and a MinnKota trolling motor for sneaking up on shallow-water Reds.

Captain Rich knows how to put you on 'em, and has years of experience guiding all kinds of guests, from seasoned anglers to first-timers. Prior to becoming a guide, Rich spent more than a decade in law enforcement, and loves taking out police, EMS, veterans, and others who've served their country or community.

Captain Rich will provide all the rods, reels, tackle, bait and ice for your trip. All you have to bring is your Louisiana fishing license and your sunscreen, and Captain Rich will take care of the rest!

We vet our guides to make sure they are the best of the best. We want guides who not only put you on 'em, but show you a great time, keep you safe, and give you a memorable experience with your group.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the case of inclement weather, our guides will make the call and we'll work with you to reschedule your trip or issue a credit for the full deposit of the trip to be used on any of our trips across the country. Your safety is our top concern.
Each trip’s price is set by the guide and factors in all of their costs. A big determinant of cost is often the type of boat and associated fuel costs, but other guide costs include leases, marina / slip fees, bait costs, and the cost to provide and maintain all of the gear you’ll need on your trip.
Once you book the trip, we will connect you directly with the guide to go over any additional details. In the meantime, our team is always available to answer your questions via email, text, chat, or call!
