Team Fat Chick Launches YouTube Series in Venice | Billfish Classic Recap
The Gulf of America Tour is officially underway.
Team Fat Chick hit the water for the first stop of the 2025 season: the Louisiana Gulf Coast Billfish Classic out of Venice, LA. Known for rough waters, big payouts, and even bigger fish, this tournament marked the beginning of a new chapter—not just for our tournament run, but for our brand-new YouTube series.
🎥 Episode 1 is now live on YouTube, and while the results might not have been what we hoped for, the action was real. From bait prep and early-morning launch to pushing through heavy storms and searching for marlin, this episode sets the tone for everything to come.
Like many tournament openers, things didn’t go quite to plan. But that’s part of what makes offshore fishing worth watching—and why we’re bringing viewers behind the scenes for every leg of the tour.
What to Expect in Episode 1:
Our first tournament blast-off of the season
Some unexpected offshore drama
Early team dynamics and learning curves
Raw behind-the-scenes footage from the cockpit to the tower
What it really looks like to fish a Gulf tournament
