This is a Ford vs Chevy topic. People swear by where they fish the most or grew up fishing.

I grew up fishing Grand Isle and have never fished Venice.

I have also taken 4 charters to big lake. Each one was 4-5 boats and two days. I haven’t even caught a half a limit adding them all up. Been straight skunked two days in a row on two of the trips.

I have also had bad trips to grand isle, but I have NEVER been skunked two days in a row when fishing on my own and never been skunked with a guide in grand isle.

If you want to go and have the closet thing to a guarantee of catching fish, my suggestion is grand isle. But rumor has it Venice is the place for big specks and Big Lake use to be the place for big specks.
