Fished with JB Charters today out of Slidell. Made a long run east through lake Borgne to fish oyster reefs.
We had plenty of throw backs, but we caught just as many 16-18” fish. Released a 22”.
29 specks, 5 whites
I was not expecting to catch the size of fish we caught.
It was hot. No breeze. That’s always more tolerable when you’re catching fish.
Would definitely recommend JB Charters.

Buddy of mine fished Cat Island yesterday and caught many specs, but only a few keepers.

Love Justin. He’s the rare guide that’s a wizard at fishing and just enjoyable to be around. Can’t go wrong booking with him.

Bump
Fished with him again today. 4 man limit by 930am. Absolutely perfect day on the water.
If you’re looking for a guide to fish chalmette to lake P to the Rigolets to the Biloxi marsh, he’s your man.

Thanks, Justin!

Question for you, will there be bait in the well, or are we gonna have to "make bait" after we launch?

This old trope is tired and played out on the food and drink board. Take this trash to another board.
I’ve had two great experiences with this hard working guy, and I wanted to share the experience.
And the bait was in the live well, to answer your stupid question.

I know Justin as a friend…..he doesn’t have time for this board with how booked up he is and actually caring about his family. If you’ve fished with him then it’s very understandable to want to promote him. He’s the often rare intersection between great guide, great anngler, and great human.

My Dad and I fished with him last November. Limit on trout and a bag full of other fish. Would recommend as well.

Thats the vibe I get from him as well. He doesnt need this board to fill trips or market.

He said he’s getting close to being able to completely ghost social media. Hes mostly reaching business at this point so he may not need to market himself at all for too much longer.
