About Your Trip

We offer a variety of multi day trips aboard the Southern Cross, our custom 54’ aluminum Breaux Bay Craft sport fisherman.

The “Cross” is a perfect set up for small groups wishing to experience premier guided and wade fishing at and around Chandeleur Island, the Biloxi Marsh, and Cat Island for speckled trout, redfish, triple tail and Tarpon.

With the Cross as a “mothership” on location, the guide boat can cover large areas which allows for more time fishing and less time commuting.

The Cross is equipped for private groups up to 6 and features comfortable bunks in an open configuration, 2 heads and a full shower. She has a comfortable salon with satellite television and a full galley.

The trip consists of your group leaving from the harbor aboard Southern Cross just before daybreak. We tow up to two guided center console bay boats and fish the first day. On the final day you will fish in the morning and head back around noon.

The Southern Cross is the only Chandeleur boat that offers guided fishing trips. Our captain and guides have decades of accumulated knowledge of these barrier islands, assuring your fishing experience will be top notch and tailored to your group’s needs.

All tackle, bait and fish cleaning is provided. You are welcome to stay aboard the Cross the night before your trip if you desire

First Time Booking with Us?

Captain Experiences is home to 1,600+ quality, vetted fishing and hunting guides across the US and beyond. Our mission is to Unlock the Outdoors by making it quick and easy to book the trip of a lifetime every time with our Damn Good Guides.
We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.
Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!
In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.
Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.
After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
