Lafitte Fishing Charters: Everything You Need to Know

Are you in the middle of planning an upcoming fishing charter trip? You're not alone. Each year, thousands of people plan (and go on) memorable fishing charter trips for a number of reasons, including:

  • As a way to blow off steam with friends
  • As a bonding experience with family
  • As a thank you and celebration for coworkers or clients
  • For a bachelor or bachelorette party

Fishing charter trips are popular because they combine fresh air, nature, exercise, and excitement into one unforgettable day (or days) that people of all ages can enjoy. But here's the thing you should keep in mind: not every fishing charter trip is up to the challenge of keeping you and your party entertained and comfortable. That is why so many people from across the U.S. come to Lafitte for their fishing charter trips. In Lafitte, we have the fish ... of course ... but we have so much more.

First, let's talk about the famed fish of Lafitte, Louisiana

Lafitte is in the heart of Louisiana's bayou, and just a few minutes from New Orleans. Our unique location grants us access to pristine inland saltwater, and, as a result, some of the finest saltwater fish on the planet.

Specifically, Lafitte is known to be king of speckled trout and redfish. Our temperatures and ecosystem are exactly what these schools of fish long for, and it's not uncommon to see them accumulate in masses.

But how do you find the fish? Ah, our fearless captain comes to the rescue!

Lafitte may be home to enormous schools of saltwater fish; however, that doesn't mean you'll be able to pluck these fish out of the water with little effort. What fun would that be?

Of course, it's also not fun to struggle all day long to walk away empty-handed. Luckily, with Get the Net Charters' Captain Nick, you'll never go home fishless. Captain Nick's grown up on these waters, and has studied the behavior of the fish and wildlife on these waters.

The result is nothing short of magical: It's as if the Captain has an innate understanding of where the fish will be, and at what times throughout the day. He's more than willing to share this information with you, ensuring you have one of the most successful fishing journeys of your life!

Now let's talk fishing charter trips without the water
