What a two Month RUN on offshore fishing out of Venice

Capt. Gary Bonanno
August 23, 2009
Venice - Saltwater Fishing Report

CAPT. GARY BONANNO/STRIKE ZONE CHARTERS Venice, LA USA

WHAT A TWO MONTH RUN....This has been the best July and August that I have had in the 21 year history of Strike Zone Charters. The weather, the anglers and the fish have been cooperating. We have had to run a lot further than the norm but the reward has been GREAT catches of Yellowfin and Blackfin Tuna. The average 24hr trip on the 55' Strike Zone Too has been 12 to 15 Yellowfin with the largest in the last two months being a 141 pounder that came on the slowest trip of the Two Month RUN. We have tagged eight Blue Marlin with three of them coming in the past three weeks. Lots of Bull Dolphin in the first part of July. And the AJ's have been the big hogs as usual. And let's not forget the red icing on the top of the fish box...THE RED SNAPPERS (Who are in danger..... of killing themselves from over population)

We are now waiting for the Blue Water and the big Yellowfin to move back home. It will be nice to start fishing seven to twenty miles out of the pass. I know this will make the oil companies sad but it will sure help our fishing pocket books.

Guatemala has been slow....Everyone is waiting for the up coming season (Oct to May).....When we have had boats out they have done very good....The last trip was with a local group and they went 5 for 10 on the Sails and had 16 Dorado's. The problem is the same as it was in Venice years ago...It was only a few of us fishing from October to April(Capt Mike Fernett and Capt. Mike Adam's)....Now we have found this is some of our better months as long as the weather stays in tack. Next year we are going to promote the slow months with some great specials on three day fishing trips. to Guatemala...We are getting ready for the Guatemala Run:::Seth Is heading down on Monday to bring some supplies and to make sure the boats are ready for October. Capt. Kevin Aderhold and Seth Holl and going to start running one of the boats in Guatemala the latter part of this year. They are not good on their spanish but they are real good on the Sails and the Spanish ladies.

Get a group and come join us on a fun fishing trip on one of our luxury yachts, either in Louisiana or Guatemala. If you can't find a group give Capt. Danny Pate a call and he will try and get you on one of the trips...WE WANT TO TAKE YOU CATCHING.
