Venice Offshore Report - Finally Got Out! www.reellouisianaadventures.com

Friday, October 26th

Kenny Howe and friends from Texas managed to book the one calm day during this horrendous stretch of WINDY weather and hit pay dirt with Capt. Bill Delabar.

They made the long run on the 32-foot Twin Vee and it paid off. The crew caught five nice yellowfin on live baits rigged on FRENZY ultimate circle hooks, then decided to relocate and pull baits for wahoo. Instead of wahoo, they boated two kings which the guys kept for the smoker.

On their way back, they made quick limits of red snapper before calling it a day. Coolers were overflowing as the guys loaded up for the drive back to Houston, Texas.

Hopefully we have gotten most of the wind and rain out of the way in October so that November will have off the charts tuna fishing.

As a reminder, Midnight Lump season is just around the corner, so if you have not made your reservation to fish this area which is famous for 200-pound plus yellowfin tuna, giant mako shark and triple digit wahoo, better make the call soon.

There are still a few weekend dates left, but those will book up quickly. The prime time is usually mid-January through February, although March and even into April can sometimes be outstanding as well.

Give me a call to schedule your date on a F-A-S-T boat with one of Venice Louisiana's most productive & professional guides!
