trip description for Venice Tripletail Trip in Boothville-Venice

Join us down by the waters in Venice, Louisiana where you can fish at one of the best Tripletail fisheries you can find! If you're looking for some sight casting and a fish that gives you a wild fight, look no further than a Tripletail adventure. Tripletail are pretty crazy looking fish with their prehistoric, dinosaur-like features: razor-sharp gill plates, sharp fins, and you guessed it, 3 tails. There's some debate on their beauty. Some admire them while others are might double-take at the first sight of them. But one thing is undeniable: their wonderful taste. Captain Jacob usually finds these sneaky little guys floating motionless by nearshore structure until a potential prey wanders by and then they strike on their opportunity. Expect them to feed on fish and crabs, including gulf menhaden, Atlantic bumper, glass minnows, swimming red crabs, anchovies, shrimp, and squid. Thus, Captain Jacob will rig up some live bait (occasionally artificials as well) and sight fish these bad boys. Captain Jacob will help you through every step of this process to guarantee that your experience is memorable and successful! With your fully licensed and insured guide, our number one goal is to keep you safe! Be ready to bring drinks, food, sunglasses, sunscreen and a great attitude for a day that you'll remember years down the line. Other than that, Captain Jacob will take care of the rest. Read More

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Recent Reviews of Captain Experiences

  • ★★★★★
    Had a redfish trip with Captain Rich on 7-17-24. We had some thunder storms in the area but he was able to navigate around the to get to the first spot. He could tell we were fairly experienced and offered us great advice on how to get on them. When the storms started moving in he took us to a different place. We slayed them! Rich was super knowledgeable and an outstanding guide. Can’t wait for next time.
