Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, Fowl Language Guide Service is here to show you the ropes of Louisiana's world-class inshore fishing. We're talking redfish, speckled trout, and whatever else is biting in the rich waters of the Gulf. So grab your hat and sunscreen, 'cause we're about to hit the marsh!

What's the Deal?

Picture this: You're cruising through the maze-like waterways of central Louisiana, the smell of saltwater in the air, and the anticipation of your next catch building. That's what you're in for with this full-day charter. Captain Jerryd's got all the gear you need - rods, reels, tackle, and even a live bait tank to keep those shrimp frisky. Safety gear? Check.

Fishing the Flats

Ever seen a redfish tail in skinny water? It's like spotting gold, and that's the kind of excitement you're in for. We'll be using a mix of techniques, from sight-casting to those tailing reds in the shallows to drifting live bait in deeper channels. Jerryd's boat is set up for inshore fishing success, with a shallow draft to get into those backwater honey holes where the big boys hide. You might be tossing soft plastics under a popping cork one minute, then free-lining live shrimp the next. It's all about reading the water, finding the fish, and adapting to what's working on the day.

Angler Tales

"Jerryd did awesome! My son has always wanted to go Frog hunting, so we finally booked a trip. Jerryd with Fowl Language made this trip a core memory for not only my boy but the whole family. They provided delicious food and good company. He was so nice and encouraging with my son when he was nervous. We are first timers and we're able to get a total of 17 frogs. While Jerryd may be a Fowl hunter, he knows how to get the frogs too! We cannot wait to book another trip with Fowl Language!!" - Madelyn

What's Biting?

Redfish (Red Drum): The star of the show, redfish are what put Louisiana on the map for inshore fishing. These copper-colored bruisers can grow over 40 inches long and put up a fight that'll have your arms burning. They love to hang around structure in the marsh, and when they're tailing in shallow water, it's a sight that'll get any angler's heart racing. Fall is prime time for big bulls, but you can catch them year-round.

Speckled Trout (Spotted Seatrout): Don't let the name fool you; these aren't your average trout. Specks are aggressive feeders and one of the tastiest fish in the Gulf. They school up in deeper channels and around oyster reefs, making for some fast action when you find them. Spring and fall are your best bets for big numbers, but summer can produce some real gators (that's local speak for big trout).

Sheepshead: These striped convicts are the thieves of the inshore world, known for their uncanny ability to steal bait. But land one, and you're in for a treat. Sheepshead have powerful jaws lined with human-like teeth, perfect for crushing crabs and barnacles. They're a wintertime favorite when other species slow down, and they put up a surprisingly good fight for their size.

Smallmouth Bass: Wait, smallmouth in saltwater? You bet! While not as common as their inshore cousins, smallies can be found in the brackish waters where fresh meets salt. They're aggressive fighters and a blast on light tackle. Finding them is like hitting the jackpot, adding a unique twist to your inshore adventure.

Time to Get Your Line Wet

Alright, folks, here's the deal: Louisiana's inshore waters are calling, and Captain Jerryd's ready to put you on the fish. Whether you're dreaming of that bull red of a lifetime or just want to fill the cooler with some tasty trout, this trip's got you covered. With room for up to 3 anglers, it's perfect for a day out with friends or family. Remember to grab your Louisiana fishing license before you come, and get ready for some real Cajun-style fishing action. Don't let this chance slip away like a big one off the hook - book your spot with Fowl Language Guide Service and let's make some fishing memories!

Redfish

Redfish are the crown jewel of our inshore fishery, known for their copper color and distinctive tail spot. Most run 3-10 pounds, but bulls over 20 are possible. You'll find them tailing in shallow marshes, cruising oyster bars, or hanging around dock pilings. They're here year-round, but fall brings big schools to the flats. Redfish are prized for their powerful runs and excellent eating quality. Sight-fishing for tailing reds in skinny water is a rush like no other. To hook up, try gold spoons, soft plastics, or live bait like shrimp or mullet. Here's a local tip: on calm days, look for their wakes or tails breaking the surface in very shallow water. Cast well ahead of them and wait for the thump. Whether you're after your first red or chasing that monster bull, these fish deliver an unforgettable fight.

Sea Trout

Sea trout, or speckled trout, are a staple of our inshore waters. Most run 14-20 inches, but trophy-sized gators over 5 pounds aren't uncommon. Look for them in grass flats, around oyster bars, and near drop-offs. They're here year-round, but fall and winter can be prime as they school up in deeper holes. Trout are known for their soft mouths and tendency to shake hooks, making them a fun, finesse catch. Anglers love their willingness to hit artificial lures and their excellent table fare. To up your odds, try a popping cork rig with live shrimp or a soft plastic under it. Here's a local secret: on calm mornings, work a topwater plug slowly across grass flats - the surface strikes are heart-stopping! Whether you're after numbers or that wall-hanger, sea trout fishing rarely disappoints.

Sheepshead

Sheepshead are quirky inshore targets, usually 2-8 pounds with distinctive black stripes. You'll spot these "convict fish" around structures like docks, bridge pilings, and reefs - anywhere with barnacles or crustaceans to munch on. They're here year-round, but the bite really picks up in early spring when they school up to spawn. Sheepshead are notorious bait stealers with those chomper-like teeth, so they'll test your skills. Anglers love the challenge and the tasty white meat. For best results, use light tackle with a small, strong hook. Here's a local tip: thread a fiddler crab onto your hook, get it right up against a piling, and wait for that subtle bite. Set the hook hard - these guys have tough mouths! It takes some practice, but landing a big sheepshead is seriously satisfying.

Smallmouth Bass

Smallmouth bass are a hard-fighting freshwater favorite, typically weighing 2-6 pounds. You'll find them in clear, cool waters with rocky or gravelly bottoms. These bronze beauties love structure - look around fallen trees, boulders, and deep pools. Spring and fall are prime times when they're most active in shallower water. Anglers prize smallmouth for their acrobatic jumps and powerful runs. They put up a great fight on light tackle. To catch 'em, try soft plastic tubes or jigs bounced along the bottom. A local trick: when the water's calm, toss a topwater walk-the-dog lure at dawn or dusk. The strikes are explosive! Whether you're after a trophy or just want consistent action, smallmouth bass deliver an awesome day on the water.
