Yelloweye Snapper
Venice, Louisiana, is renowned for its offshore fishing, and Yelloweye Snapper are a prized catch in these waters. The Mississippi River Delta creates a complex underwater landscape with numerous oil rigs, wrecks, and artificial reefs that provide excellent habitat for these fish. The best time to target Yelloweye Snapper is during the warmer months, from spring through fall, when the fish are most active. A common technique involves dropping heavy jigs or cut bait near the legs of oil rigs or around wrecks. Be prepared for strong currents and considerable depths, often exceeding 200 feet. Access is primarily through charter boats operating out of Venice Marina. A local tip: chumming with chunks of cut bait can attract Yelloweye Snapper to your fishing area. Always be aware of your surroundings and follow safety guidelines when fishing around oil rigs. Louisiana has specific regulations regarding snapper fishing, so familiarize yourself with the current size and bag limits before heading out.
