Venice - Saltwater Fishing Report
The Gulf has been beautiful, and the action continues to be very good. Yesterday we fished over a wreck about 15 miles west of Venice and had lots of fish hitting.
These wrecks always seem to produce good fishing action and right now there some schools of permit which can go as big as 25 pounds hanging over this sunken structure. Best baits to get them to hit has been shrimp and crabs.
Bottom fishing for grouper and mangrove snapper has been decent with plenty of keepers to keep everyone happy.
We've also been picking up some nice kingfish to 20 pounds.
