Trout, tuna, snapper , tarpon
 

Went to Venice today with my fiancé, hit Breton island first thing and put a few nice trout in the boat. Decided to run down river to chase mangroves and cobia . So made the 20 mike run back to the river and another 25 down river. Hit east bay to find green water but didn't stop till we hit 250+ ft of pretty water. Saw a 150lb+ tarpon jump 2-3 times in east bay and about crapped myself ! Started bottom fishing, chunking for mangroves and was instantly hit with a drag peeler .... Kori was hooked up to a tuna, she passed the rod off to me n I landed it . Caught some 10-13 lb mangroves chunking / drifting. Caugh a bull croaker on a butterfly jig . Caught red snapper galore but had to throw back . On the way in saw a school of yft crushing bait but didn't stop cuz we had to make it home

Pic of a few of the fish I'll post more when I dig em out of the ice

Nice job Pox.

That is awesome man.....that is the true meaning of a bull croaker!

Yeah on a freakin 11 oz butterfly jig!!!!! It sounded like a marching band drumming !!!

That is wild...never heard of anyone catching one a lure that big.

Now that's what I call a mixed bag!

Great trip Pox!

LOL

What an awesome trip! I have never fished down there but always wanted to. Anybody want a second boat to try a trip after May 15th let me know. I'm game. I run a 22' Blazer Bay. Pox you don't get nervous running that far out alone with a single engine?

Great Trip and Congrats! Looks like y'all picked a Fantastic day to be o the water

GREAT report man.......Congrats on your trip.

TB

It's not that far out in Venice . It gets deep quick . If u had binoculars u prolly could have barley seen the ships going into SW pass. There's always that chance but it's not like we were 60 miles out. The majority of the run is in the river

I have never seen a croaker that big. I didn't even know they got that big

They get bigger!!

Nice catch bro!!!!!

Are you wearing a blue tooth headset in that first pic???
:shaking::shaking:

Hell no! It's the lanyard from my sunglasses throwin over my head !

Cucumber, tomato , avocado, onion, wonton strips, seaseme ginger dressing with raw tuna on top in a lettuce wrap! On pernt!

Great trip Pox. Gotta love the waters off the LA coast!

LMAO!!! Everyone must have missed this comment!!
