Grand Isle Fishing Overview

Grand Isle fishing charters offer a diverse range of fishing opportunities year-round. Located on a barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico, Grand Isle is surrounded by the Mississippi River Delta, providing access to inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing. The area is known for its variety of fish species, including Yellowfin Tuna, Blackfin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, Blue and White Marlin, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Flounder, Sheepshead, Amberjack, Cobia, and Snappers.

Extended full-day or overnight trips are recommended for those targeting Yellowfin Tuna or other pelagic species, while half-day trips offer great inshore and nearshore fishing opportunities. Grand Isle offers a variety of vessels for fishing, from inshore skiffs to large sportfishing vessels, departing from either the Gulf side or the Mississippi River Delta side.

Anglers over the age of 16 fishing aboard a licensed charter captain's vessel must purchase a Saltwater License in addition to their basic Louisiana Fishing License, as they will be fishing beyond Louisiana's "saltwater line."

Inshore Fishing in Grand Isle

With the amount of shallow water available to anglers near Grand Isle, we'll be surprised if you don't catch some quality inshore fish. If you’re lucky, the inshore grand slam (Speckled trout, Redfish, Flounder) can be accomplished in Grand Isle with just a half-day charter.

The peak of speckled trout fishing happens from spring into summer. Overlapping with trout, redfish and flounder start to heat up from summer into fall.

During the warmer months, bait fills the area which means these fish are constantly feeding.

Even in the winter you won't find much down-time because the sheepshead will be in large schools around hard structure.

With so many peak fishing seasons, it’s always the perfect time to take an inshore fishing trip in Grand Isle.

Deep Sea Fishing in Grand Isle: The Tuna Capital of the Gulf

Known most commonly for hitting the offshore rigs for snapper and tuna, Grand Isle offers top notch deep sea fishing and has plenty of offshore species for anglers to target throughout the year. You can drop bait to the depths and catch various snapper and grouper species, or go trolling for wahoo, kingfish, and tripletail.

Year round, the tuna bite is fantastic. Blackfin and yellowfin tuna know how to bring a fight and pack a ton of flavor.

If it’s the middle of the summer, you will want to head out and target red snapper before the quota is filled. The peak bite for mahi-mahi also fires up in the summer, and with unusual looks and delicious meat, this is an amazing fish to catch.

During the winter months, wahoo over 70 lbs are not uncommon during their big run that occurs during this time.

Regardless of the time of year, the offshore action in Grand Isle is almost guaranteed.

Recent Reviews of Captain Experiences

  • ★★★★★
    Captain Daryl was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and laid-back. He made our fishing trip beginner-friendly and went above and beyond to ensure we caught the fish we were after. We reeled in every species you’d want during our inshore adventure! His teaching skills were top-notch, and he never once made me feel inadequate due to my lack of fishing experience. Plus, he had a great sense of humor that kept us laughing throughout the trip. Best fishing trip I’ve been on! I can't wait to go fishing with him again!

    Went out with Captain Davide on June 5,2023. His in depth knowledge of the waters ( fishing he area since he was 9y.o.) really made the difference. We were on fish almost all day. He knew how to target each species and the best place to get them. He organized the day to target species that would keep us reeling fish in. Combination of American reds (15), Tuna(6), and variety of other species . Not to mention the wahoo that broke me off ( Damn near the biggest I ever saw). Ended with a day of heat exhaustion for me, 2 hours of fish cleaning for David, and buying 3 extra coolers for the haul home. Be careful...... There is alot of mean mugging at the cleaning station. Most everyone else got skunked that day. Thanks Capt. David Dr, James Hill Ft. Lauderdale Fl.

    James H. with Jacob M. of Boothville-Venice, Louisiana

    Captain Jacob gets 5 BIG stars from my son Tyler and I. We had a fantastic trip with him yesterday. I cannot imagine there is a better fishing guide in the area . He had us on huge donkey red snappers in no time and he took us to many other locations for other species, since we had limited out on red snapper in the first 2 hours of fishing. His boat was immaculate. As a marine surveyor I look at these things as the safety of my son and myself is very important. Captain Jacob has a great sense of humor and makes sure his guests have a great time. Definitely choose him for your trio.

    Darrel was a wonderful captain he made the entire 2 days awesome

    Johnny F. with Daryl C. of Grand Isle, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Captain David was very good and interesting to talk with. Our first day out his deck hand had misunderstood our fishing days and was unable to go so David had to do the trip himself. He did his very best but unfortunately we didn't catch anything and helped him as much as possible. The second day he had two deckhands and it went so much more smoothly and they were very informative and very knowledgeable. They tried their best to put us on fish but it didn't work to our favor. We caught one swordfish. It was a very expressive trip for one fish but I understand that happens. I would definitely use captain David again and hope to try it again next year

    John R. with David M. of Boothville-Venice, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Best day ever with this guide. It’s was cold out and we were able to find the fish we were looking for thank to him. Can’t wait to go back!! I’ll definitely use this guide again.

    Damn good Capton very smart and made the trip very fun he was all about getting us on the fish did a damn fine job of it also

    Dustin D. with David M. of Boothville-Venice, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Excellent trip with Captain Donnie! An experience every sportsman needs. Tails Up/Sea Cruiser will be my only go to when fishing out of Venice. Donnie is a true professional and will make sure you get on the fish no matter what it takes. His new Contender is a battle wagon and he and his crew are second to none.

    Brad H. with Donnie J. of Boothville-Venice, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Mr. Daryl is the first charter I've ever taken, and I would not hesitate to book him again. From the first minute you meet him, he's cutting up with jokes and makes you feel like you've known him for a long time. He quickly put us into a steady supply of HUGE trout. Not a single one had to be thrown back. Can't wait to do this again.

    Sam Z. with Daryl C. of Grand Isle, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Daryl thanks for all the shrimp on your 3 hour trawl Friendly Informative Fun And caught what we were after!

    Paul S. with Daryl C. of Grand Isle, Louisiana

  • ★★★★★
    Had a great day with Seth despite the weather. I was only in town for 1 day and could not reschedule so we decided to go out and make the best of it. We caught a nice 22" redfish on first cast and after a few hours work we had another 22" and a fat 27" redfish in the boat. Seth stayed positive the whole day as we tried different spots and techniques. Will definitely fish with him again, hopefully in better weather.
