Default Captain Mike Ellis Fishing from Venice
We left the dock around seven yesterday morning after the storms at the mouth of the river. Picked up some live bait and headed offshore. We caught 8 yellowfin tuna and lost at least five. The fish turned off around 2pm and we were back at the dock before 4pm This was a great trip and I would recommend Cap't Mike Ellis for anyone looking to catch some nice tuna out of Venice.

around 25 miles out. Mike caught some herring for live bait and we hit two rigs. Tuna at both. Sorry about no pics, but just learning the site.
