Left out this morning from Venice Marina and went exactly where I knew I shouldnt. When I came out into the open bay it was about what I figured....ROUGH. Turned south and went down into a little bay I have been fishing the last couple days and found good clean water and biting fish. REALLY GOOD biting fish! I had to spend the entire morning fighting off boats that I dont even know how they found their way there. I'm drifting in open water and they come drop anchor 50 yards in front of me! COME ON! YOU DONT DROP ANCHOR ON SCATTERED FLATS FISH!!! Well anyway.... It didnt stop us from catching a limit of Venice slabs. Had a dozen go over 4 pounds! Despite the constant winds from EVERY direction, the fishing is really good. If you come down here, PLEASE be considerate of the other fisherman in the area and what they are doing. All our fish were caught on Live shrimp under a PARADISE POPPER. We tried plastic and it wasnt even close.
Spring is full, but still some prime Summer and Fall dates available. Getem while the gettins good! REEL SHOT GUIDE SERVICE 985-969-0810
