What can you say about a place that always makes you feel at home? Folks that always go the extra mile to insure you have a good time. How do you tell others how good these guys are?
I’m not sure but I’m going to try. I want you to see through this post how great Griffin Fishing Charters and Lodge in Barataria, Lousiana is. And if you read this post and really want to have a great time fishing then you should check them out.
I’ve been fishing with Griffin a number of times and always have an awesome experience. Rather it is a day trip or longer, they can accommodate both and they really try to make it the best trip ever.
Griffin Fishing Charters and Lodge is one of the largest fishing outfitters in Louisiana. They offer day-trips, all-inclusive packages, and specialize in large groups. Their guides are from the area and are always ready “to put you on some fish!” The guides are knowledgeable about what’s biting, what bait to use and willing to help teach you how to fish if you need them to. They work hard to ensure you have a good time and enjoy your day. They will share stories of the area and you feel like their friend when you leave.
They take you out and you can fish for redfish, speckled trout, black drum, sheepshead, catfish, and more. And we always catch enough to bring home. The Redfish are the best things ever. They will clean and bag your catch or you can have an onshore lunch where they will cook up your catch for you to enjoy. If you are feeling a little tired you can take a nap in your room and meet them again for dinner. And the view from the pier is beautiful.

They have a super nice waterfront lodge that their page says “sleeps up to 55 guests total in a private 1, 2, and 3 bedroom suites”. We’ve never had a group that big go with us but think it would be a blast if we did. Everything is nice, clean, and professional.

They are only minutes from New Orleans and the area is filled with wonderful places to eat if you want to visit the area but Griffin has some wonderful Cajun cooking.

We went down for Averi’s Fantastic Fishing Birthday Adventure, and as usual, we were not disappointed. She had a blast and caught some huge fish. We stayed at the lodge and had a wonderful weekend.
So I hope I convinced you to take a look and maybe book a fishing trip with this great charter service. And I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. If you do let me know!!! Have fun and if you want to check them out try them at one of these links:
