Finally got out passed the bridges to check on some of the migratory fish, and plenty little sharks and plenty the big drum seen good bit of mackerel and bait.. Water was nice clear but to cold for cobia and the bigger sharks yet!!! Inshore still pretty good struggled a couple days.. Some nice trout last run on sheepshead, at least in bay plenty out at the island some 15 miles out!!! Live shrimps have been pretty steady at bait shops and bait of choice!! 🎣🎣😊

the sheepshead will be heading out the bays all I've cleaned lately are full of eggs!! They go offshore to spawn.. Lots of slot and over 30 inches reds been in bay.. The big drum are starting to do their spawn and have been plentiful!! Few flounder and specks,too!!! The water temps well over the 70 degree mark, seen a small triple tail sharks and cobia should be lurking around the barrier island, Gone slip out there soon and give it a try!!! The white trout ground mullet are fun and abundant for the young spring breakers?!! Something for everyone now so let's goooo!!! 🎣😊

5 stars! We had a fun and memorable fishing trip with the family! Captain Conner was awesome! He took us to a couple of spots with great results. Fishing is never guaranteed that we lucked out and caught a good few fish! Definitely would recommend him! Honestly, when we return to Biloxi, looking forward to fish with him again!
