Hey Anglers!!!!!  

Well, the winter is coming to a close and spring has sprung.  As normal we are coming into another awesome year and projections are that we are going to have an above normal year on Speckled Trout, Redfish and Drum due to the bumper crop of offspring of these species had last year.  We are in the final planning stages of building new lodging onsite behind our existing lodges to accommodate more anglers and to offer options to our clients.

Due to the overwhelming demand and need for onsite meals, we partnered with one of the local restaurants to offer, if needed, Breakfast Sandwiches, Lunch, and Dinner.  Meals such as Shrimp Creole, Crawfish or Shrimp Étouffée, Boiled Crawfish or Shrimp or Gumbo just to list a few.  Nicole can help you with the orders to make your experience one to remember. 

Bookings have been early this year!  It seems that you are getting into the groove with Nicole on getting your trips booked for the year so you get the best dates for fishing and lodging.  The fishing since the beginning of the year has been outstanding!  I was lucky enough to get some Trophy Trout in February with writer Todd Masson.  We caught 17 that day with one almost 7lbs, one right at 6lbs and six over 4lbs!!!  All caught on MirrOlure Topwaters!!  Many people have inquired about doing a Specialty Trophy Trout Topwater Charter.  I am going to offer a “Specialty Trophy Trout Trip!”  These trips are for anglers that are wanting the experience of catching more quality fish rather than high numbers of fish.  These trips are not to fill the ice chest, any fish that weigh’s over 3lbs will be released, if you catch a personal best we will take some awesome pictures and measurements for a replica mount! These are only 2 person trips and are not only to catch fish but to educate you on the “how to” on catching Trophy Trout!  I only have a limited amount of days per year to do this, and I have had an overwhelming response on these trips.  Contact Nicole ASAP if you want to book a Trophy Trout Trip!  The last available days are as follows but you must call Nicole to make sure they are still open: July 23, 24, 25, August 21, 22, 23, or September 18, 19.  



Lastly, I would like to thank all of my longtime customers and our new customers for your loyalty and friendship over the years.  This June will make Bayou Charters 25 year Anniversary and it has been awesome!  Yes, hurricanes Katrina, Isaac, Gustav were some tough ones over the years and nothing was crazier than the Deep Water Horizon BP oil spill right in our backyard!  Many of you remember when we had the small camp above the boats that would wake you up nice and early or the camp across the street that looked as if it was from the 1920s!

Bayou Charters couldn’t be successful without our awesome clients, many of you that I now call friends.  Thank you again from all of us here at Bayou Charters for your business.

May Report & News

FISHING REPORT Hello, Bayou Charters Fans!!!  What a year so far! Because most of you follow us on Facebook , you have seen the outrageous fishing trips that we have been having since the beginning of the year.  Limits of redfish have been flying in on all boats super early everyday! Catching and releasing has been the name of the game, with 100’s of fish being caught everyday!  I have been in business 25 years, and I have never seen the redfishing anything like it is right now! For the speckled trout fishing, shrimp were late this year and just starting to hit the exterior bays and lakes, so we are beginning to catch trout pretty good.  With the Mississippi River at the highest recorded level, we are fighting the freshwater near the river. The great thing is that we can head east towards the Biloxi Marsh and Breton Sound, (which we normally fish later in the year), but the trout are waiting on the reefs and rigs!

TRANSITION PERIOD The year is flying by faster and faster each year!  We are now moving into our late Summer transition period where our fish are going to start schooling up in certain areas and the fishing is going to begin to get even crazier than it has been.   As many of you know the Fall and Winter fishing in our area, east of the Mississippi, is the most productive in the world.   This is the time of year when duck hunting trips begin with Blast and Cast Packages , shorter boat rides to the fishing grounds, and ice chests of fish that are flowing over you should make sure to come and see us.   The transition period is one that the fish move daily due to the huge amounts of bait moving from the outer waters to the interior bays.  This movement to the interior bays allows us anglers to catch many species together at one fishing spot!  Yep, speckled trout, redfish, drum, flounder and largemouth bass can be caught on the same VersaMaxx cork presentation at the same fishing s
