The Spring Explosion is ON!

April fishing in Venice, LA is where things start to fire on all cylinders. As bait activity increases and water temperatures rise, both inshore and offshore species become more aggressive. From hard-fighting Yellowfin Tuna offshore to steady Redfish action inshore, April offers one of the most well-rounded fishing experiences of the year. Located at the mouth of the Mississippi River, Venice, LA benefits from nutrient-rich waters that consistently attract bait and gamefish year-round.

As a result, April fishing consistently delivers both volume and variety. The marsh continues to warm, bait populations expand, and predator species respond with heightened activity. Meanwhile, offshore waters settle into predictable temperature bands, concentrating pelagic species around rigs, rip lines, and structure.

In short, if you're planning April fishing in Venice, you're stepping directly into a peak production cycle. Whether you're chasing a 150lb Yellowfin Tuna offshore or targeting shallow-water Redfish in the marsh, this month delivers on every front.

Inshore Fishing in April in Venice, LA

Redfish in April

Redfish fully transition into aggressive spring patterns. They push shallow, track baitfish, and feed with intensity throughout the day. Anglers experience steady action with both slot-sized fish and oversized bull Reds staging in passes and outer bays.

Speckled Trout in April

Speckled Trout enter a strong pre-spawn and spawning phase. They group tightly along points, current seams, and grass beds. April fishing offers prime opportunities for topwater strikes and light tackle presentations during active feeding windows.

Flounder in April

Flounder continue migrating back into the marsh from the Gulf. They position along ambush zones—bayou mouths, drop-offs, and oyster edges—where moving water delivers bait directly to them.

Sheepshead in April

Sheepshead maintain a strong presence around structures. Pilings, jetties, and reefs hold consistent numbers, making them a reliable target throughout April fishing trips.

Black Drum in April

Black Drum stack up along oyster reefs and deeper channel edges. Their size and power create a dependable, hard-fighting option for anglers looking to bend rods consistently.

Offshore Fishing in April in Venice, LA

Yellowfin Tuna in April

April fishing represents one of the most consistent Yellowfin Tuna windows of the year. With improved sea conditions, our crews reach deepwater rigs more frequently—and the fish respond. Expect both school-sized Tuna and true trophy-class giants actively feeding.

Cobia in April

As water temperatures rise, Cobia begin their seasonal push into nearshore zones. They cruise around rigs, buoys, and debris, often presenting visual, sight-casting opportunities that add a completely different dimension to April fishing.

Wahoo in April

The Wahoo bite remains strong. High-speed trolling along temperature breaks and structure continues to produce these fast, aggressive predators.

Mahi-Mahi in April

Additionally, early-season Mahi-Mahi start to appear in increasing numbers. Weedlines and floating debris become key targets as these fish move into bluewater zones.

Swordfish in April

For anglers targeting true giants, daytime swordfishing stays highly productive. Our crews deploy deep-drop techniques along the continental shelf, where these fish actively feed in 1,500–2,000 feet of water.

Grouper in April

Bottom fishing also remains a viable option. Grouper hold tight to wrecks and structure, providing both action and exceptional table fare during April fishing trips.
