Trip to Venice few days before Christmas with good friend Shane Bizette and my cousin Joey Lemoine. Joey and I have been fishing together our whole lives, and he had never inshore fished in Venice. After I went with another good friend Willie Couch, we decided to make a trip down to get on some big trout action. When the speckle trout happened early, we decided to search for bass, which were an easy catch that day as well. Have to take the easy days to cover the days that you have to “work for them”. Great day in the water!
