Fishing Reports – Grand Isle, Venice La

I've had a great couple of days last week.  We started off Thursday morning pretty early and headed out in search for some yellow fin tuna; had a hard time finding bait on the way out.  An hour and half later we arrived at our destination and started chumming; got a few fish up-landed 1 and lost 1.

The next drift the sharks started showing up.  We went to start our thrid drift and an old friend Capt. Billy Wells showed up and offered me some incredible live bait.  I can't thank him enough-he really saved my day.  We put out the live bait and it was "fish on" one after another.  We boated 10 more yellow fin and decided to start fishing for some amberjack.  We caught a few nice ones on live bait and a few on jigs.  We started making our way back to Grand Isle and ran across some black fin  jumping.  We boated 2 black fin and then headed back to the dock.  We had a great trip and I was looking forward to my next trip with Warren the next day.  We all took off early that morning and managed to put some live bait in the live well.  We spent a lot of time catching bait then we headed out back offshore.  When we got out there we went 3 for 5 for yellow fin and then it was back to more sharks.  We grabbed some bait again from Capt. Billy Wells and spent the day catching sharks.  We headed to go try for some amberjacks and caught more sharks and few jack crevalle. We managed to catch a few amberjack also.  We decided to head for some mangrove snapper but the water ended up being really dirty and it had a lot of current all around the river.  We decided to call it a day and talked with Warren on the run in, about our upcoming snapper trip for June.  The fishing has been hot and we are not having to run very far out to catch some days.

Give us a call for the trip of a lifetime!  

We Leave of Bridgeside Marina in Grand Isle, La.  Grand Isle has a lot to offer- beaches, restaurants, bars, and lots of wonderful Deep sea fishing in Louisiana.

Another great weekend of GREEN WATER fishing. We headed out Friday night on an over fishing trip in hope of finding blue water. We went 120 miles out and still no blue water. I did talk to one of the supply boats heading in from way offshore and he told me it was close and pushing north.Hopefully things will be back to normal soon and the summertime fishing along the rips will be in close.

We arrived at the platform around 7:00p.m. I was still letting the first bait out and fish on. We put yellowfin tuna in the box until midnight one after another. We ended up with 13 yellowfin several blacfin and a limit of 10lb Red Snapper we picked up on the way out.

Grand Isle Charter fishing has been incredible this year. We have been catching one or two yellowfin tuna over 100lbs on almost every over night trip. Our group for the tarpon rodeo July 22nd through the 26th could not find a place to stay so the twin vee is open. We have had at least 1 fish place in the top 3 every year for the past eleven years.

We will be fishing out of bridge side marina in grand isle Louisiana. Don't miss out on a trip of a lifetime. The pictures are from an overnight trip this past weekend.
