January 23 kicks off Mardi Gras season - one of the most exciting times to be down here in New Orleans. The season - which runs through February 9 - gives visitors to the Bayou an opportunity to take part in a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Mardi Gras ("Fat Tuesday") is the last day of the Carnival season, and always falls on the day before Ash Wednesday (the first day of Lent). And while Fat Tuesday is the official Mardi Gras day, we here in New Orleans know how to make the celebration last for several weeks.

Yes, we know that's a pretty bold statement, but we stand behind the claims we make. How can we be so sure that our fishing charter packages offer the avid fisherman everything he or she needs?

When the thermometer begins to dip, and sunny days give way to grayness and cold, fishermen across the country start hunkering down for a few off-season months.

But they don't have to. Down here in Louisiana, there is no off-season for fishermen, particularly along the fabled inshore of Lafitte (just outside of New Orleans). Here, the natural habitat is the perfect breeding ground for redfish. One day spent on our waters will have you wondering what took you so long to head to Lafitte to get your fishing fix during months when so many others hang up their rods and reels.
