Meet your guide
Hudson McEntire, originally from Alabama, has built a career around his lifelong passion for the water. After finishing high school, he earned a degree in geology and forestry, combining his love for the outdoors with a knack for understanding the natural world. He got his start as a deckhand, spending 10 years learning the ropes (and sometimes untangling them) before taking the helm himself. Along the way, he guided trout fishing trips in the beautiful rivers of Colorado and Wyoming, adding a splash of adventure to his resume. These days, Hudson splits his time between Louisiana in the winter and Florida in the summer, running his own fishing charter company and welcoming anglers of all experience levels for memorable days on the water.
Hooked on Adventure
From Bayous to Blue Water
Florida | March - June
Welcome to the legendary flats of Florida, where turquoise water stretches to the horizon and every shadow could be the fish of a lifetime. Stalk silver ghosts (bonefish) tailing in inches of water, feed a cruising tarpon and watch it explode into the air, or test your skill against the elusive permit. Snook lurk in the mangroves, redfish cruise the backcountry, and the variety keeps your rod bent all day. Here, the hunt is as thrilling as the hookup—quiet poling, perfect casts, and heart-pounding takes in gin-clear water. When the sun dips low, swap the skiff for beach life: fresh seafood, cold drinks, and sunsets you’ll never forget. This is saltwater fly fishing at its finest.
Louisiana | September - February
Welcome to the wild heart of southern Louisiana, where endless marshes, winding bayous, and glassy flats explode with life. Here, bull redfish charge the shallows, waving their tails, flashing bright orange in the sun, and smashing crabs and shrimp in an all-out feeding frenzy. Every cast is a shot at a bruiser, and with black drum, sheepshead, and gar in the mix, the action never stops. You won’t battle crowds, just big fish and big water. And when the day’s done, Cajun country welcomes you with bold flavors, cold drinks, and locals who know how to swap a fishing story. This isn’t just a trip—it’s an obsession waiting to happen.
