The fish are not as big as in Galveston; however, don't be fooled, as plenty of keeps are in the lake.

MEET YOUR CAPTAIN

Experience the Water with a True Veteran

Hello, I'm Captain Ken, your guide to an unforgettable fishing adventure. Rooted in the Waters of Southern Louisiana, my journey began where fishing wasn't just a hobby but a way of life. With a family background steeped in expertise and enthusiasm for the waters, I've been honing my boating and fishing skills since childhood.

After high school, my love for the sea led me to serve our great nation in the Marine Corps. For over 24 years, I explored coastal waters across the country, always ready to grab a fishing rod and uncover each area's hidden fishing gems. From Coast to Coast, I've learned that every region has its own unique story waiting for a fisherman to tell.

A Passionate Guide After the Marine Corps

Now retired, I have pledged my time to what I love most — sharing the joys of fishing with fellow enthusiasts like you. Whether you're a seasoned angler or holding a fishing rod for the first time, my mission is to ensure that every outing is as thrilling and memorable as my very first catch.

Your Adventure is Anchored in Safety and Success

Onboard, I abide by the “three S's”: Safety, Snagging fish, and Smiles. My Marine Corps experience prioritizes your safety, ensuring a smooth and secure journey. With safety assured, I focus on the thrill of snagging fish, crafting an environment where laughter and joy thrive.

Join me for a fishing charter experience where calm waters meet exciting catches, and every turn of the reel brings a smile. Let's create unforgettable memories together because there's nothing quite like the joy of a fresh catch on the open water.
