We did a 24 hour trip out of Venice with safari blue charters.
I spent the first 3 hours throwing a cast net to get bait.
Said bait died on the way out because the captain forgot to turn the aerator on.
We swordfished for about 7 hours with no bites. I understand that one completely. Those fish are hard to catch. Understandable
The captain **** in the 5 gallon bucket we had been getting chum out of all day.
We caught one yellowfin in 24 hours. Half the blackfins we cut up for bait.
Weather got rough and capt didn't want to go in.
Finally on the way in, captain wanted to stop and catch some red snapper. Ran out of lead weights. Only had 5 on the entire boat.
Boat smelt like pure rotten ass. Come to find out, when you're coming into Venice, ya pull the drain plug on the fish box and soak your charter group down with bloody ice water, including but not limited to backpacks, cell phone, lighter
Captains smoke 4 packs of my carton I brought and had half a dozen adderall come up missing. .
And there's another dozen issues that came up.
As far as Venice marina goes, just read the review I left on facebook. Too much **** too type.
If ya read up on safari blue just on reviews, you'd never know it was a **** ads operation. If you're gonna go, go with someone related to Mexican gulf fishing company
Don't sugarcoat it JR, tell us what you really think of SBC. Storyline?
