Spend the day with Animus Charters and find out what the fishing in Grand Isle is all about!
Species like Amberjack, Great Barracuda, Cobia, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Lane Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Red Snapper, Vermilion Snapper, Sheepshead, Redfish, Black Drum, Spanish Mackerel and more are in the cards if you come at the right time of year. On these trips, it's common to troll, fish on oil rigs, wrecks and reefs bottom fishing using light or heavy tackle.
Capt. Chris is happy to have kids aboard, so feel free to make a family day out of it! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are never a bad idea – lucky for you, there will already be some on board!
Capt. Chris will bring you aboard a 29' Sea Fox center console with room for 6 passengers. All the essentials no fishing machine can run without.
You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.
You will need to buy a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.
A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), a hat, and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks available on board.
Now, come aboard with Animus Charters and get hooked!

Chris is, hands down, the best captain and always has the best deck hands. He makes you feel comfortable the entire trip and the conversations you can have with him are hilarious. There is never a dull moment. If you are wanting a valuable fishing trip, with loads of fun, Chris with Animus Charters, LLC is the way to go!! Beginning the trip, Chris explains to you what the day is going to look like. He is extremely knowledgeable on the types of fish you catch, along with where to find them. He supplies bait and all equipment needed for a great experience. Throughout the trip, Chris is an amazing person to chat and hangout with. He happily answers any questions you may have about quite literally anything. He, along with his crew, baits your lines, takes the fish off the hook, assists in reeling in (if needed), fixes poles if lines need snapping, and guides you to different locations. He makes you feel like family from the second you step onto his boat, until the moment you step off. It truly is an amazing experience, in and of itself, but Chris makes the experience that much better, with his incredible personality and knowledge of fishing. It is undeniable, the amount of love he has for the game. At the end of the trip, he cleans the fish and bags them up based on the type of fish it is. He gives recommendations on how to cook the fish and what dishes they taste the best in. As a side note- His boat remains clean. He takes pride in his belongings and keeps the boat free of trash and clutter as the trip continues to ensure the best experience for everyone. This was my second time going with Chris and I don’t think I will ever choose anyone else. He made a very good impression on me the first time and I just had to come back! He made my graduation fishing trip everything I imagined!! If you are looking for a clean, fun, and memorable trip, book Chris with Animus Charters, LLC, today!! I promise you it’s so worth it. 5 stars on yelp!!
Thank you so much! I loved having yall on board! great group!!
my 16 y/o son and his friend and I really enjoyed this trip and caught a lot of fish. captain and first mate took care of everything for us. the boat was the perfect size for 6 fishermen plus the captain and first mate. this trip is perfect for beginners as well as experienced fishermen. we caught lots of red snapper plus white trout, almaco jack, lane snapper, and more. even a huge shark and a huge bull red that were released. i highly recommend.
Thank you Brooke! Yall were an awesome group and would take yall anytime!
Issues came up with the boat, but Captain Chris Beard was on top of it like a champ. instead of canceling our trip he set us up with a backup at Geaux Fishing Charter with Captain Trampus Wagoner. We had a blast and caught 30+ sheephead, drum, mangrove, and I forgot the name of the other fish. I would 100% recommend both Captains and both charters if you want to do inshore or offshore fishing.
Thank you! Im happy you all had a great trip!
great guide and service, put us on fish immediately. accommodating in every way. would book again. highly recommended
Thank you Sam! Yall are welcome on my boat anytime!
