From inshore marshes to the deep Gulf, we'll take you to the spots that locals know best. No shortcuts — just real charter fishing out of Venice Marina.
Whether you're after speckled trout in the marsh or a deep-sea adventure, we've got the boat, the tackle, and the local knowledge to make it happen.
Shoal water, marsh edges, and bayou backwaters. Target speckled trout, redfish, and flounder in the protected waters around Venice.
Head past the passes and into the Gulf's deep blue. Mahi-mahi, tuna, grouper, and more await on a full-day offshore adventure.
Not just fishing — experience the Louisiana wetlands. Guided wildlife and birding tours through the scenic waterways surrounding Venice.
Prefer to cast your own line? Rent a well-maintained vessel from Venice Marina and explore the Gulf on your own terms.
Birthday parties, corporate outings, fishing tournaments — we'll tailor the trip to your group size and schedule.
Never caught a redfish? We'll teach you the techniques that work in these waters. Guided trips for beginners through seasoned anglers.
Coastwide Charters is a locally owned and operated charter service out of Venice Marina. We grew up fishing these waters — the marshes, the passes, the Gulf — and we know what makes this corner of Louisiana special.
Our mission is simple: get you on the water, to the right spots, with the right gear, and make sure you have a damn good time doing it. Whether it's a half-day trout run or a full Gulf expedition, we treat every trip like it's our own family out on the boat.
