Had a great 2 day trip out of Cocodrie with some awesome people. Thanks Capt. Tommy Pelligrin for setting it up. Call or text Capt. Terry to book your next fishing adventure. 225-892-5384

Capt Joe from New York returned to Dularge for 2 days of fishing. Definitely not 2 of the best days to choose if he had a choice!  Whenever Joe comes to town he comes with a bucket list, this time he wanted nothing but big fish. Trout, slot reds or sheep’s were not an option, lol. 
Capt Terry took on the challenge of making them happy. Yesterday was extremely tough with only a few fish caught and these guys fish hard! Today was very different with lots of bull reds and drum caught! More than enough to wear out normal fishermen! They ain’t normal! Lol

<div>Beautiful day on the water with a group of high school buddys that come down a couple times a year. We found a lot of 12” trout with a few keepers mixed in early. &nbsp;Then, we made a move and got on some big trout. &nbsp;The big trout bite wasn’t as fast, but they were definitely more fun to catch. &nbsp;The biggest trout was 21 inches. We even boxed an ‘endangered’ 18” red fish. &nbsp;We had a great time catching, and I can’t wait for them to come down again.</div>

As we transition into the winter season, temperatures may be cooling, but the fishing action is heating up! Lots of red drums, my personal favorite, are still abundant, along with ample slot redfish, trout, and sheepshead. Secure your booking today and join the excitement on the water!
