ABOUT

WORLD CLASS TROUT and RED FISHING

Love to fish the Islands but that long round trip wears you down?

​

The Chandeleur Islander, a stationary and stable jack-up fishing lodge, can become the destination you've been searching for while fishing the islands. Upon arrival, the Islander will be safely jacked up out of the water where we will be offering you hearty meals and comfortable accommodations. We provide on/off stairway access from our suspended 30' dock to your accommodations on deck. Using the lodge as a base, you can arrange guided trips, enjoy excellent wade fishing along the islands, or perhaps head for that popular local fishing spot you've heard  all about.

​

!! SPECIAL NOTICE !!

 Louisiana law enacted in 2018 now allows Islander guests to

take home up to a 3-day limit of filleted trout and red fish.

​

Book a trip, depart from anywhere along the Gulf Coast, head for the islands, fish, check in with us; fish the entire remainder of the day, and return for the evening. Once on board, you will enjoy a welcomed shower, a completely satisfying dinner, relaxation in air conditioned comfort, and perhaps enjoy drinks and a nice breeze on deck with your friends. Most importantly, you will sleep in clean, comfortable quarters, out of the water on a stationary platform, and you will have no further thought of winds, waves, or storms.

​

No boat? We can help you with reasonably priced transportation options.

Prefer to fly? Contact Southern Seaplane for special rates to the Islander.
