Venice Louisiana Redfish Fishing Report.
June 20, 2019.
Good news! The "BULL" Redfish have been showing up along the coastline in big numbers in some of the areas we would expect them to be. Hopefully, the weather will let us get to them on the days we want to target them. Hopefully, the big Reds will start showing up in a lot more areas along the coastline, so we can target them with different wind and sea directions. We get a high Mississippi River every Spring, but this year the river has been high for a much longer period of time, so all the fresh water seems to have pushed the bait farther off the coast and the oversized Reds have followed the bait to deeper waters. The high river has actually helped congregate the slot Redfish to the outside bays and beaches all this Spring, and has made them easy to target, although the last couple of weeks they have been more difficult to find. I don't know why they have been harder to find. The only constant is change it seems. We have to figure out what is going on with the fish every day. The fact that the big Redfish have been showing up in bigger numbers is great, because almost all my clients in July and August want to target the big "BULL" Redfish. July and August seem to be the easiest months to locate the big Redfish. December through mid March are when you catch the heaviest Reds. Winter time is when you want to come for a "trophy Bull Redfish". Fall is really good for them as well. I think Spring is when you want to come fish with a Venice Louisiana fishing charter for fish to take home and eat. Things always change. I'ts fishing. We are lucky that we fish here all year long. I sure hope we don't have a hurricane hit us this year. All good so far. Hope all is going well for you all.

redfish, bull redfish
