Recreational Offshore Landings Permit

A more accurate method of determining Louisiana’s recreational landings of yellowfin tuna went into effect January 1, 2013.  The new method requires anglers and charter captains possessing tunas, billfishes, swordfish, amberjacks, groupers, and snappers first obtain an Offshore Landing Permit. 

The permit is available at no cost to the public.
