We have fished with Griffin at least once a year since 2018. We love the fact that you can walk out…read moreof your room and walk right to the boat. The rooms are very nice and clean and the outdoor seating is great for hanging out. They provide dinner the night before, breakfast and lunch. The food is always good but you better be hungry because it's a lot of food!! We have been with several different captains over the years and they are all great. If the fish aren't biting, they will keep moving to other spots so we can limit out. We have been with Carl most of our trips and he is awesome! They also clean and filet your catch. We like to keep our redfish on the half shell. We always look forward to our trips and have invited friends and family to join us. They have been equally impressed as well. You won't regret booking with Griffin!

We had a wonderful captain. He helped navigate us to catch some huge drummer on a very hot day.read more

Well if you can catch them when they're open. Been there once or twice on a whim and they were…read moreopen, nice variety of tackle and baits, live and artificial. Again it's just da fact if and when they're open.

Having a great time here. We are wrapping up our second evening, after our first day on the water…read more Captain Dave was our guide/captain for the day. Had to wait out an early morning thunderstorm that delayed us for about an hour. After that Cpt. Dave took us out. The winds were up all day, but he stayed the course and we came back with our dinner, plus. We had to move around a bit to catch em, but we were fishing instead of just casting, which is cool by me. The food was delicious and in no short supply. There were snacks everywhere but I never got to them. We had a full breakfast at 5:30am, sandwiches on the water, a serious Cajun flavored lunch after returning off the water. Last but not least our dinner was served on the half shell, made fresh from our days catch. Can't wait to do more catching and eating to

I have walked into plenty of shady establishments in my time on this earth. I have often wondered…read moreif I would walk out of some, but occasionally I've found a gem. Cochiara is one such gem. Growing up in South Louisiana I spent a lot of time in Grand Isle. Heading there we would always stop at a friend's gas station/fishing supply/bar on the way to the island. I always remember the old men sitting at the bar laughing and drinking while we tried to convince my parents to buy us candy. Throughout the years I have visited many a boat launch and marina in Louisiana fishing communities with similar businesses. These places have always reminded me of those family trips and they always bring me great joy. After a recent trip to Boutte's for dinner, I discovered another place that made my quite happy. Cochiara is the convenience store/bar next to a boat launch. There used to be hotel rooms here, but I think they no longer exist. Inside is much more of a bar than convenience store, but there are chips and soft drinks should you need supplies for a fishing trip. The crowd was primarily local, but very friendly. I think I was tested by some locals when they noticed me singing David Alan Coe, but I must have passed with flying colors as they welcomed us with open arms. This may have been because I am a very likable guy with an incredible knowledge of country music. If you're not me, or not with me, you may have issues, but I will be glad to offer pointers for a small fee. The jukebox was stocked with old country classics, but also had some surprises including Madonna. The beer selection was somewhat lacking unless you are a fan of Bud products. When asked what beer they had besides Bud Light, the bartender advised of us of no less than seven different Bud products. If I buy a camp in Lafitte I will become a regular here. Even if I don't, I will make sure and stop on every trip I make. Note: I am thinking bars like this would make a great UYE. I wonder if we can figure out a way to do all waterfront bars one night.

This is a cool little bar in Lafitte. Good jukebox with old country on it. Really nice people and…read morecheap drinks. What more could you ask for? It's a really big place with a pool table, a dance floor and a bunch of snacks that you can buy if you want something to munch on. In this town everyone knows everyone. A young guy came up to my friend and me and asked where we were from. If you aren't from the area, go in and be nice and the locals will treat you like one of their own.
