The best in Louisiana fishing

Empire is located in the heart of one of the most dynamic and fertile estuary systems in the world. It is one of the few locations that allow easy access to Breton Sound to the East, Barataria Bay to the West, the Gulf of Mexico to the South and the mighty Mississippi River. The inshore areas are covered with rich oyster beds that offer some of the best light tackle fishing for trophy Speckle Trout and Redfish. Nearby oil platforms stemming straight out of the Gulf, present the perfect aquatic habitat for a variety of game fish such as Trout, Bull Reds, Spanish Mackerel, Lemonfish, Snapper and Grouper, just to name a few.

When the river level drops, watch out, the population becomes even more dynamic, as it rapidly fills with Trout, Redfish and Flounder. At J-Bar, fishable waters may be found in a variety of distinct and secluded places, no matter the weather conditions. Just minutes away from the J-Bar, the Delta provides prime wintering ground for waterfowl, presenting a multitude of species for an unforgettable hunt!
