White Marlin
If you're targeting white marlin, Venice, Louisiana, provides a unique opportunity to intersect with these pelagic predators in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Venice's location at the mouth of the Mississippi River gives anglers quick access to deep offshore waters and nutrient-rich environments that attract baitfish – and, in turn, marlin. The prime time to target white marlin here is during the warmer months, typically from May through September. Focus your efforts around floating oil rigs and underwater structures, as these areas often hold concentrations of bait. Trolling large lures or rigged ballyhoo is the standard method. The Venice Marina is a popular departure point, offering various charter services and amenities. Remember, the currents can be strong and unpredictable, so be prepared for challenging conditions. The white marlin in this region are often mixed in with other billfish species, so be ready for anything!
