Venice Louisiana Redfish Fishing Report.
February 04 2020.
February and the second half of January is the best time of year to have a shot at a trophy :BULL" Redfish. I don't know why that is, but we catch the heaviest fish during the Winter Months. I took out Dwain and Jim from Georgia to target the big Reds the last couple days and we caught some nice ones. The fish liked the spinner baits more than the cork rigs. The fish started hitting the corks instead of the plastic up under it, so we started throwing the spinner and had better success with hook ups. Most of the fish we boated were over 20 lbs., with our heaviest at 27.5 lbs.
Summer time, late June, July, August, and the first week of September are the best time to come fishing for the big bull Redfish for sheer numbers of them. They are easier to locate during this time of year. The weather is more stable is probably the reason. The second half of October, November, and early December are very good for big Reds as well.
We have a busy schedule on the books for this year, but have openings if you want to get in on some fishing action. April and May are good months to put keeper Redfish and Speckled Trout in the ice chest to take home. Contact us if you would like to talk about it. Thanks.
