Captain Todd expertly positions his skiff to give anglers the best shots at these feeding fish, whether you're presenting a well-placed fly or working a soft plastic along the bottom. The crystal-clear waters of Cocodrie's outer marsh and Houma's protected bays create perfect conditions for spotting both redfish and black drum, making this season ideal for sight fishing enthusiasts.
Winter in Louisiana's marsh doesn't mean the end of great fishing - it's quite the opposite. While other areas along the Gulf Coast might struggle during colder months, Captain Todd's local knowledge helps him locate concentrations of fish in deeper holes and protected areas throughout Houma and Cocodrie. Black drum become particularly active during this season, offering anglers the opportunity to target these powerful fish in shallow water. The clearest water of the year makes winter sight fishing especially productive, with opportunities to spot fish from considerable distances in both locations' pristine waters.
