Offshore Fishing Charter Trips Grand Isle & Port Fourchon, Louisiana
Fish the productive offshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico out of Port Fourchon and Grand Isle, Louisiana. We run trips from 4 hours to 24 hours, targeting Red Snapper, Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Cobia, Mahi, Grouper, Amberjack, and Swordfish. With federal reef permits, we fish beyond the 9-mile limit where state-only charters are required to stop — giving you access to deeper water, bigger fish, and more species. Every trip is private and every angler goes home with a story.
