Grand Isle, LA

Whether you like fishing from a boat, surf fishing, fishing from a pier, fishing under lights at night from a bridge, or just fishing from the side of road,  Grand Isle can accommodate just about anything.
     The island has numerous Marinas & Bait Shops where you can launch your boat, get that favorite live bait of your choice, and head out to your favorite fishing spots.
     And for those people looking to be pampered, Grand Isle residents haven't forgotten you either.  There are more than a dozen Chartering Services that provide inland fishing for those big specks and reds or offshore charters for redsnapper, king mackerel, tarpon, tuna, marlin, etc.
     Now for those fishermen or fisherettes that have a competitive nature, try fishing one or more of the many rodeos that are listed under Island Events.  Just about every weekend there's a little competition going on at one of the marinas.  And hey, if you don't like fishing, purchase a ticket anyway because something is always being raffled and usually the rodeo is to benefit a good cause.
