Venice - Saltwater Fishing Report
October 12, 2015 report.
We have had a big time come back from our fishing production slump for the big "BULL" Redfish here in Venice. We have had numerous days that we have boated eighty plus Reds averaging over twenty pounds. Other days we have been boating fifty or more big Redfish. The wind has settled and when it has blown it has been coming from a favorable direction. We have found the fish near schools of baitfish in open water off of the surrounding cane points that make up the Mississippi River Delta. I have not been targeting the Speckled Trout because I have been going after the big fish, but I have spoken to some anglers that have caught some. The Specks are not thick yet, but I think after a few more cold fronts they will be thick in the river. Live Shrimp is the easy way to target the Specks if you like to fish with live bait, but artificial lures will work if you like to challenge yourself. The fishing should be just as good in November and December as it is now, and we still have some open dates during that time. The Mississippi River stage in New Orleans is around four feet in New Orleans and the water is clear. I would like it to be around two feet, but I don't want the mid west to have a drought either. Hopefully, if the wind blows it will come from a favorable direction. Have a good day!
