Reel in Biloxi's Best: Afternoon Inshore Adventure

Get ready to soak up the Mississippi sun and reel in some of Biloxi's finest fish on this extended half-day trip with Double Hooker Fishing Charters. We're talking six solid hours of prime afternoon fishing action, covering everything from calm backwaters to nearshore hotspots where the big ones lurk. Whether you're itching to tangle with a hard-fighting redfish or hoping to outsmart a crafty sheepshead, this trip's got you covered. Grab your hat and let's hit the water!

What to Expect on the Water

This ain't your average boat ride, folks. We're setting out on a 6-hour fishing bonanza that'll have you zigzagging through Biloxi's best inshore spots. We're talking winding river mouths, protected bays, and those sweet nearshore zones where the fish stack up. Your seasoned captain's got the local knowledge to put you on the fish, whether you're a seasoned pro or just getting your feet wet. We'll be targeting the local favorites - redfish, black drum, speckled trout, and sheepshead. And who knows? If the conditions are right, we might even run into some hard-pulling cobia. The boat's set up for two anglers, so you'll get plenty of one-on-one time with the captain to dial in your technique.

Fishing Tactics & Gear

On this trip, we're all about versatility. We might start off working some soft plastics along grass lines for speckled trout, then switch gears and chunk some cut bait near structure for black drum. If the redfish are tailing in the shallows, we'll ease in quietly and sight cast to them. For those tricky sheepshead, we'll break out the light tackle and drop some fiddler crabs right on their noses. The captain's got all the gear you need - quality rods, reels, and terminal tackle. Just bring your game face and maybe a lucky hat. Don't worry if you're new to this - the captain's there to show you the ropes and help you land that fish of a lifetime.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Redfish: These copper-colored bruisers are the kings of the inshore scene. They'll test your drag and your biceps with powerful runs. In Biloxi, we catch 'em year-round, but fall is prime time when they school up in the bays. Nothing beats the sight of a big red's tail waving in the shallows - it's heart-pounding stuff.

Black Drum: The redfish's cousin packs a punch too. These guys love hanging around structures and can grow to monster sizes. They're not the prettiest fish in the sea, but man, can they pull! We catch them year-round, but spring is especially good when they gather to spawn.

Speckled Trout: These spotted beauties are a local favorite for both their fight and their taste. They're most active in the cooler months, and we catch them around grass flats and oyster bars. There's nothing quite like the thrill of a topwater trout strike at dawn.

Sheepshead: Don't let those stripes and buck teeth fool you - these guys are master bait stealers. They hang around pilings and jetties, and catching them requires finesse and patience. Winter is prime time for big sheepshead, and they're some of the best eating fish in the Gulf.

Cobia: While not an everyday catch on inshore trips, when cobia show up, it's game on. These brown torpedoes can top 50 pounds and will test every bit of your fishing skill. They typically show up in spring and fall, following rays and bait schools. Sight-casting to a cobia is a rush you won't soon forget.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Look, there's a reason folks keep booking trips with Double Hooker Fishing Charters. It's not just about the fish - though we catch plenty. It's about that perfect afternoon on the water, watching the sun sparkle off Biloxi Bay as you feel that telltale thump on your line. It's about learning new tricks from a captain who knows these waters like the back of his hand. And let's be real - it's about the stories you'll tell later, whether it's the monster red that gave you the fight of your life or the one that got away (they always seem bigger in the retelling, don't they?).

This trip is set up for success, whether you're looking to fill the cooler or just enjoy some quality time on the water. With a mix of fishing spots and techniques, every trip is a little different. That's the beauty of inshore fishing - you never know what you might hook into next.

Time to Book Your Spot

Alright, let's cut to the chase. If you're itching to bend a rod and feel the salt spray on your face, this is the trip for you. Six hours of prime afternoon fishing, a knowledgeable captain, and some of the best inshore action Biloxi has to offer - what more could you want? Whether you're a local looking for a quick getaway or a visitor wanting to sample Mississippi's finest, Double Hooker Fishing Charters has got you covered.

Remember, the boat only takes two anglers, so you're guaranteed plenty of attention and fishing time. And while we can't promise you'll land the biggest fish of your life (though it's certainly possible), we can promise a darn good time trying.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your fishing buddy, clear your afternoon, and let's hit the water. The fish are biting, and there's a spot on the boat with your name on it. Just don't forget to bring your camera - you're gonna want proof when you're telling your friends about the day you owned the Biloxi backwaters. Book now and get ready for some reel action!

Black Drum

Black Drum are hefty fighters that'll give you a run for your money. These cousins of Redfish typically range from 5 to 30 pounds, but the big ones can hit 90. You'll find them in brackish waters and estuaries, often hanging around oyster beds and muddy flats. Spring's your best bet, as they school up for spawning. Anglers love 'em for their powerful pull and the challenge of landing a big one. The meat's good eating too, especially on smaller fish under 15 pounds. When you're after Black Drum, remember they're bottom feeders. Use live bait like crabs or clams, and make sure it's on the bottom. A local trick? Listen for their distinctive drumming sound – it can lead you right to them. Just be ready for a fight when you hook one.

Cobia

Cobia are real bruisers that'll test your skills. They average around 6 feet and 100 pounds, but can get even bigger. You'll find them near reefs, wrecks, and buoys in 30 to 70 feet of water. Late spring and early summer are prime times as they migrate through. Anglers love Cobia for their powerful fights and excellent table fare. They're often mistaken for sharks at first glance, which adds to the excitement. Here's a local trick: look for them following big rays or turtles near the surface. When you spot one, toss a live eel or a big bucktail jig their way. But be ready – these fish can turn a relaxing day into a full-on battle in seconds. And don't forget, they're usually loners, so when you find one, make it count.

Redfish

Redfish, or Red Drum, are a favorite around here. They usually run 28 to 33 inches, but can grow up to 45 inches and 50 pounds. You'll find them in shallow water, often so shallow their backs are above the waterline. They love muddy bottoms, oyster reefs, and grass flats. Fall's the best time to target them, as they school up for spawning. Anglers can't get enough of Redfish because they're hard fighters and great eating. That sweet, mild flavor is hard to beat. Here's a tip: look for their tails sticking out of the water as they root around for food. When you spot one, cast a gold spoon or a live shrimp just ahead of it. And be ready – when they hit, they hit hard. Just remember to check regulations, as there are size and bag limits to protect these beauties.

Sea Trout

Sea Trout, or Speckled Trout as we call 'em here, are a blast to catch. They typically run 14 to 24 inches and 1 to 5 pounds, but some monsters can hit 40. You'll find them in grassy flats and shallow waters, especially at night. They love cooler months, so fall and winter are prime time. Anglers go nuts for Sea Trout because they're aggressive hitters and put up a good fight on light tackle. Plus, they're tasty – mild, flaky meat that's hard to beat. Here's a local trick: try using a popping cork with a live shrimp about 18 inches below. The noise attracts them, and they can't resist a juicy shrimp. Just remember, they have soft mouths, so set the hook gently. And keep an eye out for schools – where there's one, there's usually more.

Sheepshead

Sheepshead, or "convict fish" as we call 'em, are a real treat to catch. They usually run 1-8 pounds, but can hit 20 if you're lucky. You'll find these striped beauties around any structure with barnacles – docks, bridges, even oil rigs. They're year-round targets, but spring's prime time when they school up to spawn. Folks love fishing for Sheepshead because they're clever bait stealers and put up a good scrap. Plus, they're delicious – sweet, white meat that's hard to beat. Here's a tip: when you feel that nibble, wait a second before setting the hook. These guys have strong, human-like teeth and need to get the bait in their mouth first. Use small hooks and fresh bait like fiddler crabs or shrimp for best results.
