Mike Beals and his wife Michelle had heard so much about the fishing in Venice, LA that after a full summer season of running their fishing lodge in Alaska, they had to come give Venice a try. In a day and a half, we managed to catch everything from redfish to yellowfin tuna, and even gave them a look at a swordfish that we didn’t end up catching. Our final species count was somewhere around 18 and I’m sure these guys will be back. Here’s Mike with his first ever yellowfin tuna and yes, he did eat the heart.
