Sight Fishing Redfish in New Orleans

Took a couple of guys out that trusted Victory Bay Charters with putting them on fish in New Orleans. The trout bite was slow, so I offered a chance at sight fishing redfish and they happily accepted. The first shallow pond we entered was full of hungry redfish. Several were self-released and many just under 16″ were caught. Once one pond was worn out, we would move to another pond, stalk the fish, cast to, and set the hook! On the way back in, the guys asked for one more chance at the trout. We found ideal conditions not far from the marina and caught 14 trout, with 8 being legal size.
