King Mackerel
Targeting king mackerel out of Lafitte puts you within striking distance of some productive offshore waters. While not as famous as other Gulf Coast locations, Lafitte provides access to rigs and reefs where kings congregate. The key is knowing when to go. The late summer and early fall months, particularly August through October, typically see the largest influx of kings as they follow baitfish migrations. Live bait is king (pun intended!), so be prepared to cast net for menhaden or blue runners. Trolling is a popular technique, but don't overlook the effectiveness of drifting live baits near structure. A local tip: pay attention to water clarity. Kings prefer clearer, bluer water, so be willing to move around to find it. Launching from Lafitte Harbor provides a convenient starting point for your offshore adventure.
