Captain Drake grew up hunting, fur trapping, and fishing on the Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain. Fishing trips with his father and time spent at the camp in Slidell, fostered his interest in being on the water. After serving as an infantryman with the 101st Airborne Division in the invasion of Iraq, he returned to Louisiana. Upon returning, it wasn't long until every weekend was spent in Lake Catherine, and areas beyond, sight fishing Redfsh and locating schools of hungry speckled trout. Before becoming a full time guide, Captain Drake spent over 15 years selling good old fashioned customer service. He understands the quality experience a customer expects, and deserves.

Depending on the time of year, you'll fish within sight of the city or deep in the Biloxi Marsh. Skimming through Victory Bay Charter's social media posts will show nothing but smiling faces and plenty of fish, which are the results of a friendly, knowledgeable guide.
