I can’t help but love my job when I have good customers and catching plenty of fish. Red fish and speckle trout are what we have been chasing and doing a fine job of catching em. For the most part the red fish have been between 3-7lb with the occasional lil one and a couple in the 9-10lb range . As for the speckle trout they have been some beautiful trout for this area . Running in the 14-20″ at 1 1/2 to 2 lbs . Catching both species trolling the banks with plastic swim baits has been the most productive here lately. I did make a run out to the pass a couple days ago looking for the big bull reds . We found them between 20-30 lbs Its always a blast hooking into a fish that screams drag and bends the rod uncontrollably .

I’m Captain Jason Shilling, owner and fishing guide of New Orleans Style Fishing Charters. I fish the bayous of Lafitte, Louisiana for red fish and speckle trout. Located just 40 mins south of New Orleans, Lafitte is home to some of the finest inshore fishing the New Orleans area has to offer. I’ve been fishing these waters my whole life and know how to show y’all the true meaning of southern hospitality, good times, and lots of action.
