Lane Snapper
Venice, Louisiana, offers Lane Snapper fishing as an added bonus when targeting the more popular Red Snapper and other reef species. While not the primary target, Lane Snapper are common around the many oil rigs and artificial reefs in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast. The warmer months, from late spring to early fall, are the best time to target them. Focus on areas with structure in relatively shallow water, 40-80 feet deep. A simple bottom rig with squid or cut bait works well. A practical tip for fishing near the rigs is to be mindful of the currents and debris. Position your boat up-current and use heavier weights to keep your bait on the bottom. Also, be sure to check the regulations regarding size and bag limits for all snapper species before you go, as they can change frequently.
