Long before charter apps and GPS, fishing looked rustic like this.

The Westwego Historical Museum 🛥️ keeps that history on display, boots and boat models included.

Worth a stop if you want the story behind the seafood.

One parish, from Lake Pontchartrain all the way down to Grand Isle.

Swamps, beaches, historic main streets, and more good food than one weekend can handle.
