Louisiana fishing
View destinations
Louisiana is one of the best places for Yellowfin Tuna fishing worldwide, and many Louisiana fishing charters can take you out on the water for a real battle. But Tuna are not the only fish in the sea. Louisiana has fantastic offshore fishing, but the inshore fishing is out of this world, too, and your Louisiana fishing charter captains are locals who know the waters like the back of their hands and know how to put you on the fish.
Inshore, your Louisiana fishing charter will take you into the maze of marshes, barrier islands and back bays where your rod will bend with Redfish, Trout, Sheepshead, Flounder and more. Lake Pontchartrain, near New Orleans on the eastern side of the state and Sabine Lake on the western side are great places for inshore fishing to get you on the fish.
Saltwater fish abound there, and they are numerous. Your Louisiana fishing charters will get you on the fish, and perhaps you might get an “Inshore Slam,” a Redfish, Trout and Flounder all in one day. These Louisiana fishing charters are available for you all over both lakes and the many other lakes in the state, ready to take you where the fish are.
If inshore is not your thing, do not worry there is incredible offshore fishing in the Gulf. From Venice to Grand Isle to Port Fourchon, you can find many Louisiana fishing charters to climb aboard and head out to the sea to hook into some monster Tuna, Marlin, Wahoo, Swordfish, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi. Snapper (including the most delicious and desirable Red Snapper), Grouper and other tasty bottom fish are also caught at the many oil rigs and the natural reefs.
There are many lakes, and of course, this is the Bayou State, so there are many rivers, lakes, streams and the bayous where bass, white perch, also known as crappie, catfish, and many other fish species gather en masse. There are plenty of professional Louisiana fishing charters that know the labyrinth of waterways which is excellent because your captain in your Louisiana fishing charter knows lots of secret spots where you can drop your line.
Everyone may not know Lousiana as a fisherman’s paradise, but that is a shame because the fishing and the Louisiana fishing charters ready to take you out and put you on the fish are both first-class and worth the trip to the Bayou State.
