Thread: Christmas in New Orleans!

I have seen programs filmed in South La as well --- Charters out of Venice La are the Rage for those coming from the Northern areas -- there are size Restrictions and limits .. I did catch a few Redfish when working offshore but the sharks got most of my better fish from around the oil Platforms , a lot of guides fish the area between the river and the Gulf.... With all the Canals out in the marsh it makes one wonder how they ever find their way back If fishing offshore the Tide is important to know as well..

This is Fishin Magician (Markham's) website:

New Orleans fishing charter - Salty Dog

I know there have been a few people here that have gone out with him and had a lot of fun. He used to be more involved with CDC, and was always a stand up guy. The redfish I've caught before hit hard and pull like a train. A lot of people love to eat them, but I didn't care for them fried. A buddy leaves the scales on his and grills that side down. I'm sure there's an abundance of recipes online.

Hope you have a great time with whatever you choose to do on your visit.

cajunfishingadventures.com is a one stop for fishing and duck hunting if in season. From fly fishing for bull reds to the blue water this place in Buras (down the Miss River on the west bank) fills the bill.
Very nice resort type accommodations with a great cook. Ryan Lambert has many (16 or so) guides that work from there. He is usually booked but may have cancellations due to the flood in sola. Check it out.

I would not use anyone but Markham! I promise you, you will NOT be disappointed!!! I will be going down there at the beginning of October to visit with him and his fiance.

I agree Markham is who I would go with, just search some of his old posts on here. He is truly an amazing very detailed fisherman!!
