About
I’m Capt Jason Shilling owner and fishing guide of this New Orleans Fishing Charter for red fish and speckle trout. I fish the back water marsh, lakes, bays, and bayous of Lafitte, Louisiana. Located just 40 mins south of New Orleans, Lafitte is home to some of the finest inshore fishing the New Orleans area has to offer. Catching the hard fighting red fish and the paper mouth speckle trout daily, as well as a variety of other species of fish such as black drum, flounder, and sheepshead. My New Orleans Fishing Charters are private charters for anglers of all skill levels of fishing. So if you’re an experienced angler or a family of first time fishermen, I will cater to everyone and have y’all reeling in fish in no time. My New Orleans Fishing Charters begin at safe light from Joe’s Landing and run 5 hours. A $20 fishing license is required for anyone 18 years old or older.

Made our second annual pilgrimage from Arizona out to New Orleans and went out today with my two sons(8 and 10)and some friends. Had an absolute blast with Capt Jason and Co. Even though it was cold and windy, Capt had the kids reeling in monster Reds in no time. Overall we caught a variety of different fish and enough of them to have a big ol’ fish fry for our party of 14 tonight! Capt Jason is truly an expert and pretty funny, to boot! Two years in a row of a great time makes fishing with Capt Jason a staple in our now traditional visit to Louisiana. Highly recommended.

We had a great 2 days of fishing with Capt. Jason. He was friendly, timely, knowledgeable and a great host. He made sure we got the full 5 hours of actual fishing, not including the ride out to the spot. We caught tons of fish, had lots of fun and he took amazing care of us. Capt. Jason, thank you for an awesome experience during trying times. We needed it!

Had a great fishing trip with Captain Jason today. He asked what we would like to fish for before we left and I said a cooler full of fish. We started off catching trout and after that he put us on sheep’s head and filled the cooler. Just ask and he delivers. Thanks for the great experience and memories.

My Dad and my little brother (15) and I’m (18) went on a 5-6 hour charter with The captain. We’ve fished a decent amount before but with Captain Jason Shilling we went catching! I’ve never caught so many fish in my entire life and they were huge, he went out of his way to check the best spots. Captain Jason is extremely funny and a relatable guy. We loved our charter with him and will 100% book again! I recommend this for all levels of experience. From beginner to advanced. He will show you everything and how to get the big fish!

We had a six hour private fishing exertion with Captain Jimmy. The cost for the both of us was $425. This included everything except our license. Our three day license was only $10 each. We caught SO MANY trout but only kept 30 that were legal in size. Appreciated Jimmy’s tips, help and him cleaning them for us! Super nice guy. We were referred to a local dry ice Company to send out fish home. 8.25 pounds of fish, vacuum sealed, frozen and mailed on dry ice via fedex for $78.

We had an amazing time fishing Captain Jason Schillings New Orleans style fishing charter. Prior to going, we had spoke to Captain Schilling about what we could expect, and he said "expect the best and prepare for the best!" So we brought a cooler for fillets and were not disappointed. Our guide was Roy, who could not have been more pleasant and competent. We started catching fish almost immediately upon reaching our spot, and had near our limit in about 2 hours. Roy said he liked catching fish more than just fishing, and that was what we got to do. It was the highlight of our trip to New Orleans, and our teenage son loved it, catching fish that left him out of breath from the fight.

I took 3 of my sons fishing for speckled trout and we caught lots of fish, with action the whole time. Jason was an awesome captain and took great care of us. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone.

Captain Jason was a damn good fishing guide and Barataria was damn good fishing - we caught our limit in Redfish (5 monsters each no joke). He cleaned them for us and we took about half of them to a place Jason recommended on Bourbon Street (Oceana Grill) and they cooked them up for us that night. Blackened, grilled, and fried - it was so gooood. Also if you need a ride Mr. Tony is the best transportation professional in the business, he’s a character we actually even hired him to take us back to the airport! 5/5 on everything and we will be back! Thanks for a great trip J!

I called the number on the website and Jason picked up immediately. We quickly found an opening that worked with our schedule and hit the water just two days later. Transportation to and from the marina from our New Orleans was expertly handled by Tony. Can't say enough good things about that man. Tony embodies the New Orleans "good times" spirit.
Hit the water at 5:15 am. At our first spot, we caught 8 redfish in about 15 minutes. Moved to a few more spots and didn't get anything. Captain Roy kept trying new locations and we finally hit on one where we pulled in (catch and release once we hit the 5 fish/pp limit) at least 40 more fish in rapid succession. It was amazing.
By 10:30am we were ready to head back, so Captain Roy turned on the AC and motored home. On our way back to our hotel, Tony swung us by a mini-mart which fried up some of our catch, and then we headed to a dry ice shipping compony to send the rest home.
Really a great time with lots of memorable photos.
Thanks Jason and crew!

There is nothing better than having an opportunity to board a boat with Captain Roy before sunrise for a fishing trip in the waters of Louisiana. Captain Roy is a true outdoorsman and he was exceptional with helping my novice fishing group achieve success. I loved his level of expertise and knowledge with navigating the water to find fish, his sense of humor when we continued to mess up but also his desire to help us have a magnificent day despite our shortcomings. Roy is also very knowledgeable regarding the rules of fishing. He understands the regulations regarding the length and number of fish one is allowed to catch. We caught a few saltwater catfish and I believed I had achieved success. However, he knew they were not the best for keeping. Instead, we continued fishing and we caught some magnificent Speckled Trout. These Speckled Trout made our day even more amazing when we arrived home and were able to enjoy our catch.
New Orleans Style Fishing Charter is an absolutely wonderful company to plan your fishing trip. Captain Jason you are to be commended for your management style!
We are locals and this was our second time taking the charter that we enjoyed the second time as much as the first.
Roy thanks for our amazing day!!! I promise when we return next year we will have improved fishing skills. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and giving us a memorable day on the waters of Louisiana which is truly a Sportsman Paradise. Let New Orleans Style Fishing Charters take you on your next fishing adventure. They will not disappoint.
