Texas residents over 65 enjoy RECIPROCITY in Louisiana so long as they have a valid license for Saltwater Fishing in Texas.

- Bring your own drinks. Guide may provide bottled water. Guides will keep your drinks, snacks, and bottled water in their ice chest on the boat(s).
Waitlist: Since this is a trip for 6 persons and will fill up fast, persons interested are encouraged to go ahead if the trip is full, register, and go on the waitlist. Our experience is that there is a good chance that a spot will open up for waitlisted fishermen. Those on waitlist will not have to pay a deposit unless a place opens up.
