Catch a ‘Monster’ : Offshore Fishing in Louisiana
Imagine live bait in the shimmering, cobalt-blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Suddenly, your reel screams as a giant yellowfin peels off the line.
You grab the pole and the battle begins. After a 45-minute tug-of-war, you finally manage to haul in your catch. And this tuna is massive.
This is just par for the course when you’re fishing blue water off the coast of Venice, Louisiana. Venice, Louisiana is home to some of the most outstanding big-game fishing in the world. Often you can find riptides 10 to 30 miles out that are full of floating grass beds, where plenty of wahoo, marlin, and tuna are just waiting to be caught.
What type of fish do you want to catch? Home Run Charters offers offshore fishing trips year-round, but certain species are seasonal.

We have one custom made 42′ Conch. Equipped with Quad 350’s, Simrad electronics, and Seakeeper Technology. This boat not only includes more room, but the most advanced equipment of our era.
