Cubera Snapper
Venice, Louisiana, presents a unique opportunity to target Cubera Snapper in the Gulf of Mexico. The numerous oil rigs and artificial reefs that dot the coastline provide excellent habitat for these powerful fish. While not as common as other snapper species, Venice offers the chance to land a true trophy Cubera. The warmer months, from late spring through early fall, are the most productive. Focus your efforts on the deeper structure around the rigs, using heavy tackle and large live baits like hardtails or pogies. Be prepared for a serious fight, as Cubera Snapper are known for their incredible strength. A local tip: Many anglers have success chumming heavily around the rigs to draw the Cuberas out from their hiding spots.
