Speckled trout are starting to run the beaches and near-shore reefs and we have been stacking them up when the wind allows. Flounder are migrating into the bay in better numbers. Redfish are still roaming the shallows. Bait shops are starting to have live shrimp more often, allowing more consistent catches. We are entering one of the best fishing times of the year on MS Gulf Coast!! We just need people wanting to fish!!

Today's trip was a joint trip with Salty Bridges Charters out of Biloxi, MS. Conditions were perfect for heading south to fish out around our barrier islands. The day started with a quick trout bite followed by a steady sheepshead bite. We ended the day searching for Cobia where we landed one solid keeper to end the day. Clear skies and a rising tide all day made for solid fishing and even better memories made!

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...

We had a lot of fun. Captain Dave was a wonderful host and guide. We will certainly go out him again. In the meantime are really going to enjoy the fresh seafood we caught.
Top-tier charter, masterclass on deck!
SYL Charters does not disappoint! Captain C-Bo put us right on the fish, and Justin the deckhand put on a clinic. The guy was flawlessly running 6 poles at a time without breaking a sweat. Amazing boat, fantastic crew, and an unforgettable day on the water. Highly recommend the to anyone looking for a premier fishing experience in Biloxi, MS. 5 stars all day!
An absolute joy of an experience. Angie was above expectations and we had an amazing time. Would recommend to anyone and definitely will return next time we are in Biloxi
I wasn't pleased with the trip this year. I booked him last year with the same trip and was very pleased with that trip. We left the marina until 9am. We were supposed to leave at 7am.
We had an outstanding trip with JJ Fishing! From the moment we got on the boat, JJ was professional, friendly, and worked hard to make sure everyone had a great time. He knew exactly where the fish were and kept us on them all day. The equipment was in great shape, the boat was clean, and he was patient and helpful with everyone on board.
If you’re looking for a knowledgeable guide who truly cares about giving you a successful and enjoyable fishing experience, I highly recommend JJ . We’ll definitely be booking another trip!
