Offshore Fishing Charters in Grand Isle & Fourchon, LA

Book an offshore fishing charter out of Grand Isle or Port Fourchon, Louisiana. We target Red Snapper, Tuna, Cobia, Grouper, Wahoo, Mahi, and Swordfish on half-day, full-day, and overnight trips. Private trip — up to 6 people. 

Mission

Our mission is to help people fall in love with fishing the way we did; not just the catch, but the process, the challenge, and the connection to the water. We're here to build real anglers who carry that passion forward to the next generation. One fish, one fight, one trip is all it takes to start a new legacy, and we want our boat to be the foundation of many.

Federal Reef Permits

We're licensed to fish red snapper, grouper, and all reef species in federal waters — beyond the 9-mile limit where most charter boats are required to stop.

The Boat

Our 34 Venture "Devildog" is an offshore battle tank that rides like a dream. With a 300 gal fuel tank and great fuel economy, it gives us excellent range at a lower cost than the big Cats. The awesome sound system doesn't hurt either.

Kid & Family Friendly

All ages and experience levels welcome. We tailor the trip to the skill level. More skill = we fish harder. Less skill = we teach more. Toilet and fresh water shower in console.

Fourchon Marina - Golden Meadow, LA

Our offshore trips launch out of Port Fourchon Marina, the closest access point to deep Gulf waters and one of the best marinas in Louisiana for serious offshore fishing. Fourchon Marina puts us just minutes from the oil rigs, reefs, wrecks, ledges, and bluewater structure where red snapper, grouper, cobia, tuna, wahoo, and pelagic species stack up. The on-site marina store makes trip prep easy with ice, drinks, snacks, sunscreen, bait, and last-minute essentials, and they also offer convenient lodging for anglers who want to stay right at the dock the night before their trip. With easy parking, quick walk-up access, and the fastest run to the Gulf, Fourchon Marina is the ideal starting point for any offshore fishing charter in Louisiana.
