It was a beautiful day, but the wind was a bit challenging. A little patience and determination got the job done, and some fellas had really good catches.

Capt Jack went fishing today with his dad (Mr. Buddy), Freddy, and Dennis. The guys had a great time, bringing in 60 Trout. The fellas fished the Four corners, Shrimp Lagoon, and Shell Lake. Fishing out of the wind in all the bayou’s of Delacroix.

Capt. Calvin had a charter with a few buddies today also and they caught 25 Redfish, 2 Drum, and 2 Trout. Great job fellas. 😉👍

Have to give a shout out to the catch of the day, to the guy with the best named boat. The “Trout Bitch” brought in one whole Redfish today! 🎣🔪

Great fishing out of Sweetwater

Yesterday was some great fishing out of Sweetwater & today was way better! A lot of speckled trout were caught today. Fish were caught all over the interior of Delacroix. We heard of some speckled trout being caught in Lake Batola and Grand Lake. On yesterdays charter, Captain Jack came in with 15 beautiful reds and 13 beautiful speckled trout. Today, Captain Jack came in with 15 beautiful reds and 40 beautiful speckled trout. Both days he fished with Scott and Scotts son, Cole.

They flew their own plane in from Little Rock, Arkansas. So glad they had good trips, because they went to the city for the first time and were robbed of the planes key, computer & flight bag. Whoever stole it sold it to someone on the street, the buyer (purchased his computer for $80) called Scott and he was able to buy it back for ($100)…. Anyways, back to fishing business..Today was a top notch day for fishing, no wind, trout biting, water cleared up tremendously! I would recommend you trying to come down asap, to get in on the good trout action. Captain Jack has a couple days available this week..possibly Wednesday & definitely Thursday. If you are looking to get in on an awesome guided fishing trip, hop on Captain Jacks boat & get ready for some fun & good fishing! Whether you want to fish with Captain Jack or bring down your own boat, I suggest getting down here NOW. The live shrimp situation is great! We have beautiful live shrimp. The weather is looking beautiful for the rest of the week. Gather up your buddies and come on down! We do have some lodging available for the week, limited spots, call Monday 504-342-2368, if you would like to book. Hope to see ya here at Sweetwater Marina, where we love our customers! 

The start of a beautiful weekend to come!

🦐 WE HAVE PLENTY BEAUTIFUL LIVE SHRIMP! 🦐 We also have plenty dead shrimp!!🦐 AND plenty minnows!!

Today was the start of a beautiful weekend to come. Hope you come join us at Sweetwater Marina.

Capt. Jack has a charter with Robert, Bob, Billy, and Tim. Capt. Jack fished scattered bays all through Delacroix, they threw back as many as they caught. They were going more for size than quantity. They caught 20 Redfish and 2 bass.

Steve & Terri went fishing today with their grandson Brailon they caught 2 trout and 4 Redfish. Brailon is one of our frequent Sweetwater fliers, and he enjoys spending time with his grandparents 😉👍

Surprisingly our favorite retired fishermen came back twice in one week to enjoy this beautiful day!

Kevin Ford in Delacroix at Sweetwater Marina with Capt. Jack!

Kevin Ford Had a great trip yesterday with Captain Jack Payne out of Sweetwater Marina in Delacroix in St. Bernard Parish. We drifted some current lines and shorelines early and then caught a few nice reds later in the day. Had a few blowups and caught a couple of trout on She Dogs but most fish came on live shrimp under a 4-Horsemen Popping Cork and 1/16 Deathgrip Jighead. The rooms at Sweetwater are also super clean with WIFI if you are looking for overnight accommodations and come with a full kitchen. Thanks again to Jack and his staff for a great day in Delacroix
