Louisiana Tuna Charters Overview About

Just over an hour's drive south of New Orleans, Venice is on the edge of the Mississippi River, but miles from anything else. There are many options for lodging right at the Venice Marina, where you can open the front door and your Captain and crew will have the boat loaded with everything you need for an awesome day on the water. There are also many options in Venice, as well as a hotel at the Cypress Cove Marina, only a five-minute boat ride away and where you can be picked up at no charge.

As a destination, Venice is an incredible place to go for an experienced angler or just an incredible first time fishing experience, with a great place to stay and an extremely fishy atmosphere.

A huge part of the amazing fishery is the waters off the coast of Louisiana are teaming with life due to the rich, nutrient-filled water dumping in from the mighty Mississippi River. Add in the many oil platforms that start just offshore and run hundreds of miles out. These platforms act as FAD's "fish aggregating devices," which attract thousands of bait fish. Where there is bountiful bait there are usually predators nearby. This combination makes the area one of the most productive fishing grounds to be found.

There are only a few places in the world where you can target yellowfin tuna year-round, stalk monster red fish on an amazing marshland that's teeming with life. Or fish on one of the thousands of rigs and reefs that dot the Gulf both near and far. Deep sea fishing that is blue water madness for many pelagic species, and you have a fishing experience like no other.

Capt. Jeff will put you on the fish! Our group had a great time catching tuna and swordfish. Jeff was very thorough and a great teacher. He took the time to educate us about the area and how to reel in those big tuna. We had a great trip and will definitely be booking again!

Capt Jeff took me and three buddies out last month. We ended up with more tuna than we could take home, a big wahoo and a bunch of big red snapper. He knew right where to go and we were catching fish all day. Awesome guy and great Capt. We have another trip booked with him for my buddies Bachelor party this summer.

Capt. Jeff is a very knowledgeable fisherman, with many years of experience. He works very hard to ensure that you have the trip of a lifetime . We always catch our Tuna , and a couple of times we caught several nice Wahoo as well. On one of our trips we caught Red Snapper, Mahi, and Amberjack along with our Tuna. I highly recommend fishing with these guys , The boat and equipment is top notch, and the crew goes out of their way for you. We have re-booked several times , and have another trip already booked for October.

"The solution to any problem –work, love, money, whatever –is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be."
