Redfish
Venice, Florida, offers a diverse range of redfishing opportunities, from the backwaters of Lemon Bay to the flats surrounding Stump Pass. The maze of mangrove islands and grass beds provides ideal habitat for these copper-colored predators. Spring and fall are generally considered the best times to target redfish, as they are actively feeding during these periods. Live or cut bait, such as shrimp or pinfish, works well, especially when fished near oyster bars or docks. A local's secret: try targeting redfish during the outgoing tide, as they often position themselves near creek mouths to ambush prey. The boat ramp at Higel Marine Park provides easy access to the Intracoastal Waterway and surrounding fishing grounds. The redfish in the Venice area are known for their willingness to strike topwater lures, offering anglers an exhilarating visual experience.
