Fishing

Venice is the perfect take-off point to access and enjoy awesome deep sea fishing.  You are only minutes from the Gulf of Mexico through the Jetty's. Depending on the fishing season, you will catch all sorts of different species of fish while fishing offshore of Venice.

Deep sea fishing in the Gulf for grouper and snapper is good most any time of the year. Other offshore fish such as kingfish, cobia, tuna, amberjack, Spanish mackerel, dolphin, shark, barracuda, tarpon, permit, mahi and giant red fish are all caught as they seasonally migrate through the deepsea waters of the Gulf of Mexico offshore

Head north to Sarasota Bay and Little Sarasota Bay, both are great inshore fishing locations. Whatever species you're after, they are there. Venture south to Lemon Bay in Englewood.

Check with the dockmasters for daily updates on the hot spots only the locals know about.
