TopWater Charters is a professional guide service specializing in good times, based in Cocodrie, Louisiana, part of a broader TopWater Charters brand with additional locations in Sargent, Texas and Belize. Led by Captain Bryce, the operation is genuinely large-scale, exclusively using BlackJack boats, world-class saltwater bay boats handcrafted individually by longtime, well-respected boat builders for a sophisticated look and unmatched smooth ride.

Fishing options include Inshore Fishing (Drive-In Bay Boat, $900, includes fuel, ice, bait/tackle, and fish cleaning), a genuinely all-inclusive Inshore Fishing package ($1,600 for 1 person down to $700/person for a 4-man group at $2,800 total, including lodging, alcohol, dinner, breakfast, fishing, fish cleaning, and bait/tackle), and Fly Fishing Drive-In trips ($800). A distinctive “Shrimp Experience” is also offered alongside standard freshwater fishing.

Lodging is genuinely extensive: North Camp ($500+tax, 4BR/4BA, sleeps 8), Main Camp ($1,200+tax, 10BR/10.5BA, commercial kitchen, sleeps 17), and South Camp ($500+tax, 6BR/6BA, sleeps 6), all with a 3-night minimum if booked without a fishing package. A 15-passenger van offers airport pickup and drop-off by request.

Guest reviews consistently describe a laid-back, no-pressure atmosphere with genuinely great captains and beautiful lodges, with reviewers specifically praising Captain Justin Breaux for great conversation and consistent hookups even in the rain, and Captain Coby for tremendous, instructive guiding. The business also works with a network of contributing captains, including Gotta Fish Charters, Fish Finder Charters, Top Line Charters, Double Down Charters, and Blue Sky Charters.
