Events

The Empire South Pass Tarpon Rodeo for 2026 is scheduled for July 30 – August 1, 2026, typically held at the Delta Marina in Empire, LA. It is a premier Louisiana fishing tournament featuring competitive inshore/offshore fishing, live music, and local food.

Founded in 1961, New Orleans Big Game Fishing Club has created a rich history of sport fishing along the Louisiana Gulf Coast. Most notable is their bond with the famous Port Eads Marina and current club location at Cypress Cove Marina & Lodge. Their passion for fishing Louisiana waters is second to none, and they welcome everyone to experience where they came from. They invite you to participate in the 51st New Orleans Invitational Billfish Tournament for big blue marlin, tuna, wahoo and dolphin, for large cash awards and prizes. The tournament is a true testament to big game fishing out of the bayou.
