If you're in the market for a day to remember, look no further than Venice Inshore fishing!. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Jace knows them forwards and back.

These waters are known for Speckled Trout, Black Drum, Redfish, Tripletail, Cobia, Mangrove Snapper, Red Snapper, Sheepshead, Flounder, and more – with any luck, you'll have tight lines in no time. Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea so that nobody gets cranky on an empty stomach!

You'll find yourself aboard a 24' BlackJack bay boat with room for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials. Capt. Jace has rods and reels for you. Fuel and bait are not included in the price. The customer is responsible for the fuel bill at the end of each trip. Also, the bait is typically live shrimp when available and averages about 25$ per person.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect. It's recommended to bring sunscreen (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Venice Inshore fishing! is just a click away.

    Great time, limits of Speckled Trout and monster Bull Reds.

    Full Day Trip on July 15, 2024 • 3 adults

    Today Captain Jace picked us up at 6 am and we headed to the trout catching spot. We caught a few Speckled Trout and a big redfish and then lightning ran us back in. We waited it out and went back out and everyone caught their limits and Levi caught a big Bull Red too! Was a great time and would definitely recommend Captain Jace. We will be booking with him again for sure.
