Dageaux Fishing Charters is a full-service hunting and fishing charter business in Venice, Louisiana, established in 2004-2005, led by USCG Charter Captain Santo Guerrera, a New Orleans native who has fished since he was old enough to hold a rod. The business name honors his heritage: “Dago,” his Italian father’s nickname, and “Breaux,” his Cajun French mother’s maiden name.

Captain Santo left a good job with great benefits in 1995 to fish for a living full-time, having chartered part-time since 1992 — decades of genuine experience and a real love for sharing the enjoyment of fishing with others. The business fishes the coast and inland waters, mainly for Redfish and Trout along with other local species, plus offshore in “The Dageaux Deep,” a 34-foot Venture sportfish for all bluewater species along with deep drop setups.

Servicing over 200 bookings per year, Dageaux Fishing Charters is a genuine one-stop shop for all Sportsman’s Paradise desires, offering bluewater, inland, and mud boats, along with lodging and RV hookup accommodations. Beyond fishing know-how, Captain Santo is also known to cook up a great meal for guests.

For anglers and hunters in Venice, Louisiana looking for a full-service, deeply experienced charter with lodging built in, Dageaux Fishing Charters offers a well-established operation with Captain Santo Guerrera.
