SUMMARY:LA | Venice 3-Day Fishing Trip
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 3-day fishing trip in Venice\, LA! \n“Be watchful\, stand firm in the faith\, act like men\, be strong.” – 1 Corinthians 13:16 \nPurpose: \nDevelop a strong leadership team\, build a group of dedicated volunteers\, and share the gospel with outdoorsmen new to the faith. \nDates:  \nPrimary check-in will begin on Friday\, December 11\, 2026 from 11:00 am  at the lodge. If you will not be able to check in by 1:00 pm on Friday\, please let us know ahead of time. You can check in Friday evening after dark if necessary. *Volunteer boat owners must check in and be on site by noon on Friday. \nThe event will officially end at noon on Sunday\, October 13\, 2026. Everyone must check out by noon on Sunday. \nGuest Speaker:  TBD \nLodging:  Delta Dawn Guide Service Lodge – 153 Leroy Harvey Ln\, Buras\, LA  70091 \nRegistration:   First paid\, first reserved – Volunteer Boat Owners – $150.00 / Fisherman – $225.00 \nAge restrictions:  There is no minimum age restriction\, however\, all youth must be accompanied by a Parent or Guardian.  Liability Waiver to be signed at check in. \nFishing:  We will have volunteers present along with their boats. Our volunteer boat owners are paying their way and are not professionals – nor are they licensed guides. No tips are allowed\, but gas in the tank and your share of other expenses is expected. Please bring cash to assist with boat gas\, ice\, and bait. Each volunteer boat owner will be assigned a fishing party each day. While we keep fathers and sons together\, usually you will be fishing with people you don’t know. This is done purposefully so please don’t be surprised. Additionally\, we will try to pair volunteer boat owners with parties suitable to their preferred method of fishing\, but please remember to be flexible as this won’t always be possible. \nIf weather allows and we have the boats volunteer for the event\, we may fish offshore.  Only participants willing and able to split fuel\, tackle\, and ice expenses will be selected to fish offshore.  Volunteer boat owners will be introduced to their parties in our meetings. Please see your volunteer boat owner for assistance and/or special needs with regard to fishing. \nMeals:  Dinner is provided for both Friday and Saturday night meals. Breakfast will be served on Saturday and Sunday morning. A limited supply of drinks and snacks will be available to take on the fishing trips but plan to bring your favorite soft drinks. Leftovers will be available for lunches\, but most parties will eat out based on their fishing location and schedule. If you would like to sponsor a meal at this event\, please contact Bryan Neal at the e-mail address listed below. \nGiveaways:  Door prizes will be given out Saturday night. If you’d like to donate door prizes or fishing tackle\, please contact Bryan Neal at the e-mail address listed below. \nRules:  \n\nPerfect people are not allowed. Come as you are\, no pretending.\nNo drunkenness. Alcohol in moderation is allowed\, but not on the boats\, please.\nNo profanity. We want to keep the environment kid-friendly.\nHave a good time.\n\nWhat to bring:   \n\nValid saltwater fishing license for Louisiana\nSleeping bag\, pillow\, towel\, toiletries\nEveryone should bring their own fishing gear and tackle as it is not expected of the volunteer boat owners to lend out their gear or tackle. If they choose to do so\, please replace it.\nOffshore gear and tackle if you have it.\nCash for boat gas\, ice\, or any live bait you would like to use\nSunscreen\, hat\, sunglasses… and rain gear.\nFilet knife and Ziploc bags – plan to clean your own fish\, please.\nA cooler to bring fish home\nA willing attitude that’s eager to help make it work and have a good time – remember\, everyone there is a volunteer\, so set your expectations as though you are going on a weekend trip with friends.\n\nSuggested tackle:   \nPlan to fish inshore for redfish and speckled trout. Each fisherman should bring their own rod. Appropriate rods are medium-light to medium action\, 6-7ft long\, either spinning or bait-casting. Monofilament line is typically 12lb test\, braided line is typically 20-30lb test. It’s recommended to put fresh line on reels if you haven’t done so in the last few months. \nArtificial baits – Paddle tail style baits are the easiest to fish. 3-4’’ models in glow/chartreuse\, red/white\, black/chartreuse\, and pumpkinseed are the basics. Weedless spoons in weights from ¼ ounce to ¾ ounce are also easy to fish and effective. Spinner baits like the Redfish Magic can come in handy. Topwater baits like Super Spook Jr’s or Skitter walks (white\, chrome\, or black) can be exciting. Gulp shrimp tails fished under a popping cork can also be effective and kid friendly. \nContact info:  Bryan Neal / (985) 351-1448 / bryancpg@hotmail.com \nSchedule of Events\nFriday: \n11:00 AM   Check in\n  1:00 PM   Welcome meeting\n  2:00 PM   Depart for afternoon fishing\n        6:00 PM   Return from afternoon fishing\n  7:30 PM   Dinner / Devotion\nSaturday: \n  5:30 AM  Breakfast / Devotion\n  6:30 AM  Depart for fishing\n      12:00 PM  Lunch on your own\n        6:00 PM  Return from fishing\n        7:30 PM  Dinner / Devotion / Door prizes\nSunday: \n  5:30 AM  Breakfast / Devotion\n  6:30 AM  Depart for fishing\n      11:00 PM  Return from fishing\n12:00 PM  Check out
