Ready to put your skills to the test in some of Biloxi's most productive inshore waters? This 4-hour private charter is tailor-made for experienced anglers looking to make the most of every cast. We'll be targeting the local favorites - Speckled Trout, Redfish, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Flounder, and even the elusive Tripletail.

What to Expect on the Water

We'll be hitting the sweet spots north of the barrier islands, where the big ones like to hang out. This isn't your typical tourist trip - we're talking serious fishing for those who know their way around a rod and reel. The boat's yours for four hours, and we'll make every minute count. With a max of four guests, there's plenty of elbow room to work those lines. We provide top-notch gear, bait, and tackle, plus all the licenses you need. Just bring your A-game and maybe a snack to keep you going.

Techniques That Land Lunkers

On this trip, we'll be using a mix of tried-and-true inshore techniques. Expect to do some light tackle casting, maybe some drift fishing if the conditions are right. We might throw out some live bait or work some soft plastics - whatever's getting the bites that day. The beauty of inshore fishing is the variety, so be ready to switch it up. We'll be targeting structure, grass flats, and drop-offs where our target species love to ambush their prey. It's all about reading the water and making the right presentation.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Black Drum: These bruisers are the bulldogs of the inshore scene. They're known for their powerful runs and stubborn fights. Black Drum can grow to over 50 pounds in these waters, though we typically see them in the 5-30 pound range. They love crustaceans, so we'll often use crab or shrimp to entice them. The best time to target them is usually in the spring and fall, but they're around all year.

Sheepshead: Don't let their stripes fool you - these guys are the bandits of the bay. Sheepshead are notorious bait stealers with their human-like teeth, making them a fun challenge for even seasoned anglers. They typically weigh 2-8 pounds and hang around structure like pilings and oyster beds. Spring is prime time for Sheepshead, but you can catch them year-round if you know where to look.

Redfish: Also known as Red Drum, these copper-colored beauties are a staple of Biloxi inshore fishing. They're famous for their distinctive spot near the tail and their hard-pulling fights. Redfish in the 5-10 pound range are common, but bulls over 20 pounds aren't unheard of. Fall is usually the best time to target them, but they're available year-round. We'll look for them tailing in shallow water or hanging near structures.

Tripletail: These odd-looking fish are a real treat to catch. Tripletail are ambush predators that often float near the surface, mimicking floating debris. They're not as common as some other species, but when you find them, it's a blast. They typically range from 5-15 pounds and put up a great fight on light tackle. Late spring through summer is your best bet for Tripletail, and we'll keep an eye out for them near buoys and floating structure.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Biloxi's inshore waters are a goldmine for serious anglers. The diversity of species and the year-round fishing opportunities keep the action hot no matter when you visit. Our flexible start times mean we can hit the water when the bite's on, whether that's at the crack of dawn or later in the day. And let's not forget the convenience - we'll clean and pack your catch, so all you have to do is enjoy the fight and take home the bragging rights (and dinner).

Learn more about the species

Black Drum

Black Drum are hefty fighters, typically ranging from 5 to 30 pounds, though the big ones can hit 90. You'll find them in brackish waters and estuaries, often around oyster beds and muddy flats. They're bottom feeders with a taste for shellfish, so fishing near structure is key. Spring's your best bet, as they school up for spawning. Anglers love 'em for their strong pull and good eating, especially the smaller ones under 15 pounds. To hook one, try live bait like crabs or clams on the bottom. Here's a local trick: listen for their distinctive drumming sound – it can give away their location. Just remember, the bigger ones can be tough and less tasty, so consider releasing those giants to fight another day.

Redfish

Redfish, or red drum, are a staple in Biloxi's inshore waters. These copper-colored fighters typically run 20-30 inches, but can grow much larger. Look for them in shallow flats, around oyster reefs, and in marshy areas, often in just 1-4 feet of water. They're year-round targets, but fall's particularly good when they school up. Anglers love 'em for their hard-pulling fight and excellent eating quality. To catch one, try sight-fishing in clear shallows or working topwater lures along grass edges. Here's a local secret: on calm days, watch for their tails sticking up as they feed on the bottom. Cast just beyond them and slowly retrieve – it's an exciting way to hook these inshore bruisers. Remember, they've got that distinctive black spot near the tail, sometimes more than one.

Sheepshead

Sheepshead, or convict fish, are a real treat to catch around Biloxi. These striped beauties usually run 1-8 pounds and love hanging around structure – docks, bridges, and oyster beds are prime spots. They've got human-like teeth perfect for crushing barnacles and crabs, which makes them tricky to hook. Spring's the best time to target them, as they gather to spawn. Anglers dig 'em for their challenging bite and excellent table fare. To up your odds, use small hooks with fresh bait like fiddler crabs or shrimp. Here's a pro tip: when you feel that telltale nibble, wait a second before setting the hook. These bait stealers are pros at stripping your hook clean, so timing is everything. Once you hook one, get ready for a stubborn fight – they don't give up easily!

Tripletail

Tripletail are an oddball catch that's gaining popularity here in Biloxi. These weird-looking fish can grow up to 3 feet and 40 pounds, but most are in the 2-13 pound range. You'll find them near the surface, often floating sideways to mimic debris. They love structure, so check around markers, buoys, and floating grass lines. Summer's prime time, especially July and August for spawning. Anglers get a kick out of sight-casting to these ambush predators, and they put up a surprisingly acrobatic fight for their bulky shape. For the best shot, use live shrimp or small crabs under a float. Here's a tip: approach quietly and cast past them, then slowly drag your bait into their strike zone. They spook easily, so stealth is key. Bonus: they're excellent eating, with firm, white meat similar to snapper.
