During the late winter and early spring, the hard push of water leaving the Mississippi Alluvial Valley creates high water conditions pushing anglers deeper back into the marshes. Moving into summer months, the bigger fish concentrate along the jetties on the main river channels and at the mouth of the Mississippi.

During the late summer and fall one of the most popular techniques is targeting feeding “slicks,” created by large concentrations of fish regurgitating bait fish which can be seen on the surface. This is also the time of the year for the biggest bull redfish.

When you book a trip with High Adventure Company, you will enjoy fishing from state-of-the-art center console bay boats or polling skiffs using flyrods or conventional tackle.
