Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} New Orleans redfish

I also agree with that recommendation.  Fished with Rocky Thickstun in January, and while I failed to link with a redfish, it couldn't be blamed on the guide.  He put me on plenty of good fish.  You might consider renting a car if staying in the city.  When I met him at Penny's Cafe, I easily got an uber from the city but getting one back was another story.  The uber ride there was like $25 bucks but the cab ride back was around $50 and the cab was truly filthy inside.

Diddo Greg Moon. That guy is so dialed in down there. Very impressive guide and a fun guy to hang with.

I highly recommend Greg Moon from Louisiana Fly Fishing Charters. I fish with him all the time down there. You typically meet him at Penny's Cafe, which isn't terribly far away from NOLA proper  (30 minutes), so you can even take a cab there and ride to the put in with him. If he's unavailable, he'll recommend either Rocky Thickstun or Lucas Bisset. All of them are awesome, and they'll always be working together anyway to figure out best methods for the day if things are tough. It's almost like you have three guides working for you!

 

I haven't fished early June (only summer fishing was in July), but I believe that's when conditions typically stabilize and while you probably won't run into any 50-fish days like you would in October, but you shouldn't have a 80% chance of getting rained/blown out. Summer typically has very consistent, excellent fishing.

Looking for recommendations regarding fishing for redfish.  Will be in New Orleans first week of June and hoping to fish for a few days.

Appreciate suggestions for guides, places, etc. regarding redfish.

Thanks,
