Trips & Rates 

     Below are the guided fishing trips, Horn island day trips, and Horn island camping trips that I offer. If you may be interested in arranging a custom trip that is not listed, we can usually work with the client to create a custom trip. At times I have last minute availability for a trip that might not be listed on my online calendar so always give me a call.

    Also, I network with some of the most respected fishing guides in the area. If you have a large group lets talk. I can book multiple captains and boats to accommodate everyone in your party and maybe even turn it into a friendly tournament amongst you and your group : ) Bachelor parties, bachelorette parties, birthday parties, corporate fishing trips, extended families, we have you covered.

Guided Inshore/Barrier Island/Near Coastal Fishing:

​​​

    The Mississippi Coast offers some amazing saltwater inshore and near coastal fishing throughout the year. We go to where the fish are throughout the year in target of speckled trout, redfish, flounder, sheepshead, black drum, white trout, southern and gulf kingfish, florida pompano, tripletail, cobia, jack crevalle, spanish mackerel and many other species. We mostly use live bait on these trips but we often will use lures as well. With an advanced request, and seasonally, we are able to have productive wade fishing trips as well if that is what you would prefer. During certain times we are able to sightfish as well. There is no limit of where we may go to find a hot bite. Often times we are fishing around our barrier islands (12 miles plus offshore) or further, near the coastline, in Biloxi back bay, or (especially during fall and winter months) up the bayous and coastal rivers. Also, by request, if you want to split your time and fish just a few hours and then spend a few hours relaxing at one of our barrier islands on the beach we can accommodate that as well.

   The bottom line is this, I will do whatever is needed to get us on the fish and to have a successful and fun trip given the conditions of the day.

6 Hour Red Snapper 

Predicted May 23-July 5 2026

​

    Red snapper fishing is a great adventure for all ages and is tons of fun for you and your crew. Red snapper fishing is one of our most consistent bites and most popular trips. They are hard fighting and delicious table fare. On the 6 hour red snapper trip we travel approximately 30 miles one way from the dock.  5:30 AM and 1:30 Pm trips available, both produce equally good bites for this species.

​​​

  •  6 Hour Red snapper Trip

         1-4 Persons $950

         5 Persons $1050

         6 Persons $1150​​​

​

8 Hour Red Snapper + 

Predicted May 23-July 5 2026

​

  On this trip you will have plenty of time to catch red snapper but we often try to target mangrove snapper in the 2-10lb range or other species as well. Mangrove snapper are one of my favorite fish to target and to get customers involved in the technique it takes to catch them.

   If the mangrove snapper bite has been off and the speckled trout or flounder bite is hot or more your cup of tea we may target these or other species as well to go along with red snapper. Many days during these trips we end up with a variety of species in the box. We can also dedicate more time into trying to target larger red snapper during this trip. Any way you look at it, this is the trip that will provide you with the most adventure and memories targeting red snapper offshore as well as other species to go along with them.

 

  •   8 hour Red snapper + 

          1-4 Persons $1150

          5 Persons $1250

          6 Persons $1350​​​

It is located approximately 12 miles offshore of the mainland and is only accessible by private or charter boat.
    Horn island is known for its beauty and for us locals, the "Funday Sundays". This is where many locals go on the weekends to escape it all, party, or to hangout with their families and friends during any warm weekend. Deep history with pristine natural sand beaches and often gorgeous clear water makes this island a favorite of everyone who is lucky enough to get to visit it. This trip is great for adults and children. Alcohol is allowed but no glass bottles will leave the boat.
