Venice, Louisiana is the last outpost accessible by land along the mighty Mississippi River and is square in the middle of the richest fishing grounds in North America. There was once a sign as you entered town that read, ”Welcome to the end of the world!” For those that like to fish, however, Venice would more aptly be referred to as the beginning of the world! The Mississippi River Delta is the heart of the food chain for the gulf fishery. The nutrients carried by the river attract every kind of baitfish , the baitfish in turn attract every kind of game fish. From Tarpon to Tuna, from Marlin to Redfish, there is no fish that does not come here to feast in the rich waters of the delta.
The Offshore oil industry has done quite a bit to enrich fishing near Venice as well. There are over 3800 platforms and drill ships accessible to us in water depths ranging from 5’ to 7000’. These platforms create incredible artificial reefs in water that has no other significant structure. Although there are several hotels in Venice Cypress Cove Lodge provides the finest accommodations. The Lodge is operated by Decatur Hotel Group who is known in the New Orleans area for clean, comfortable and well appointed rooms. The service is excellent and there is a light continental breakfast served every morning at 5:30am. The best thing about the lodge is that it’s only 100 steps from the boats! Just give us a call and we will be happy to book the rooms for you.

One of the things that makes Venice so unique is the fact that we have deep water so close to the mouth of the river. From most ports anglers have to travel 50+ miles to get into 400 feet of water. We have 400 feet less than 6 miles out! At 10 miles we have 1000’. At 23 miles we have 3000’ and at 50 miles the water is 5000+.
Don’t look for a McDonalds in Venice but there are several local restaurants serving a variety of foods. The Cypress Cove Marina has by far the finest restaurant in the area. In fact, they will even cook your catch after your trip! The best gumbo on the face of the planet (I’m aware those are strong words) is available at Buddy’s Seafood in Port Sulfur only a short drive from the Marina.
