Dulac is a small Cajun fishing community in Terrebonne Parish that offers some of the most authentic and productive marsh fishing in Louisiana. The surrounding bayous, lakes, and coastal marshes are a nursery for redfish, speckled trout, and flounder, with less fishing pressure than the better-known launch points.

Read MoreFished the marsh around Dulac and the redfish were schooled up at every bayou mouth. Threw gold spoons and caught over 30 reds before noon. This Cajun fishing community sits right on the doorstep of some of the most productive marsh in Louisiana.
Set up along the bayou channels south of Dulac and caught speckled trout on the deep edges and redfish in the shallows. The diversity of the fishing here is amazing. We kept limits of both species and had an authentic Cajun fish fry that evening.
Ran through the bayous to the back lakes south of Dulac and found huge schools of redfish. The fish were tailing in the shallows and we sight-cast to them all morning. Caught close to 40 fish before calling it a day. Dulac is a serious fishing destination.
Fished the pilings and oyster reefs in the bayous around Dulac and the sheepshead were stacked up. Using live fiddler crabs, we caught them one after another. Several fish were over 4 pounds. The winter sheepshead bite here is incredibly consistent.
The bull redfish were pushing through the bayous near Dulac in big numbers. We anchored at a bayou junction and cast cut mullet into the current. Hooked into several monsters over 30 inches. The fall bull red run in Terrebonne Parish is legendary.
Hit the marsh at first light and had the whole place to ourselves. The redfish were tailing and the speckled trout were feeding on the points. We caught fish steadily until the heat pushed us off the water at noon. Dulac offers a genuine, uncrowded Louisiana marsh experience.
