Biloxi Marsh

The Biloxi Marsh is one of the most valuable treasures in our Gulf Coast waters. It's a sanctuary for the marine wildlife and a barrier to the harsh weather that can come inland from the Gulf.

The winding channels and shallow flats can be challenging and rewarding to those that visit. It's a place that should be on every outdoors person's bucket list to see.

Chandeleur Islands

These barrier islands — including Free Mason and Curlew — are home to a host of our Gulf fish and birdlife.

They offer wade, surf and cast fishing to the fishing enthusiast, and beautiful photography for the sightseers. South Coast overnight trips to the islands are coming soon — ask the Captain to be put on the list.

Cat Island

A great place to catch the action of inshore species.

Cat Island offers great action from fishing on bottom or on swim baits. Let us show you around one of Mississippi's iconic places.

The MRGO

While the MRGO's original use has changed, it provides great cover for bait fish and ambush points for the predators. The canal and surrounding bays are worth the fisherperson's time and effort.
