About Trolling Fishing in Grand Isle

Grand Isle, Louisiana offers some of the finest trolling fishing on the Gulf Coast. Grand Isle is Louisiana's only inhabited barrier island and a legendary fishing destination that hosts some of the most prestigious fishing tournaments in the Gulf of Mexico. The offshore waters around the oil platforms and natural reefs produce exceptional catches of yellowfin tuna, red snapper, amberjack, cobia, mahi mahi, and wahoo. The famous Midnight Lump and other offshore structures are bucket-list destinations for serious offshore anglers. Inshore, the surrounding marshes, bays, and passes hold outstanding populations of redfish, speckled trout, flounder, and sheepshead. The island's jetties and the Caminada Pass are productive year-round fishing spots that concentrate baitfish and gamefish alike. Grand Isle's Cajun culture, legendary fish frys, and proximity to both incredible inshore marsh fishing and world-class offshore grounds make it a truly unique Gulf Coast fishing destination. The trolling waters here — calm bays, estuaries, grass flats, and mangrove-lined shorelines — provide world-class angling opportunities that draw fishermen from across the country.
