As we approach the end of the year that's certainly not the end of fishing. Here in Biloxi Mississippi we fish all year long. Winter fishing can provide some good fish. The redfish, black drum, speckled trout, flounder and more are still around. As we move into January and February and the water cools off even more we should start seeing large Sheepshead around the bay and around the offshore Barrier Islands. Plan your fishing trip today.

As we move into the winter months, we tend to see more Sheepshead, black drum, redfish, speckled trout and flounder. We fish all year long here in Biloxi. While there's not a large variety of species to catch, the bite is still pretty good. If you're looking to escape the cold hard winners in the North consider Biloxi for a fishing destination!

Fall is on its way. With that, it's usually awesome fishing for redfish in Biloxi Mississippi. October is normally one of the best months to catch slot Reds in the bay and bull Reds around the Barrier Islands. With the water soon cooling off the action will surely heat up. Biloxi Mississippi is the place to be for some of the best fall fishing.

Despite the rain, we've been staying busy on the water. We caught many snapper this season and now looking forward to reeling in some red drum, triple tail, and sheep heads.

    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!

    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!
