    Best Charter Experience. Period.

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) on November 3, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    I don’t write reviews like this often, but Capt. Andrew deserves every bit of praise I can give him. Was the weather ideal? Nope. Was the water ideal? Not even close. It was so choppy we couldn’t even make it out of the inland waters. Did that stop Capt. Andrew from putting us on fish? Absolutely not. We still filled an ice chest, landed TWO 40-inch black drum, and caught more fish than we ever have on a charter. This guy found fish and a good time everywhere he went! But here’s what really sets him apart. I brought my wife and our two 9-year-old daughters, and I have never experienced a guide who balanced fishing and family fun so perfectly. My girls laughed and joked with him the entire trip, and somehow he managed to keep us all entertained while constantly putting us on fish. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much joy on my wife’s face. We’ve been on charters before, and I can confidently say this wasn’t just our most successful trip or the most family-friendly guide we’ve had. This was, hands down, the best charter experience we’ve ever had. Capt. Andrew is the kind of guide you almost want to keep a secret, but he’s too good not to share. We’re already planning our next trip with him. 10/10. Would recommend to absolutely anyone, especially families looking to make some incredible memories on the water!

    Best fishing charter we have EVER been on!

    3/4 Day Trip (AM) on March 31, 2026 • 4 adults

    I cannot even describe how amazing and delightful Captain Andrew was! He was fun, chipper, knowledgeable, and super attentive to everyones needs. He baited our hooks each time, let us take pictures after each catch, taught us the best tricks and tips for fishing in the biloxi area, kept his boat neat and clean, gave a safety briefing before going out, was ethical as one can be with the fish while fishing, and was just an overall joy to be around. I can safely say that other charter captains in the area do not do those things, as we experienced with another charter the day before. The weather put us at a disadvantage, but he was able to put us on the fish regardless and gave us awesome memories! He filleted our catch, bagged them for us, and even bagged us some ice due to us forgetting ours! He was determined for his customers to have the best experience by getting to the bait shop early to get live bait before selling out. We did the 6 hr trip and he was even more than willing to let us make pit stops to use the restroom along the way. We mentioned that we had previously bought a boat in the area, and that we were doing the charter to expand our experience with fishing in this area. Let me tell you… my jaw dropped whenever he said that we had a phone-a-friend incase we ever broke down or needed help in some way with our boat! Just an amazing captain with a wealth of knowledge! We were able to catch red drum, black drum, catchfish, croaker, and a stingray!

    Caught some studs!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on October 30, 2026 • 2 adults

    Great trip! Captain Andrew was great and kept us on fish. Caught many species but the highlight was catching 8 fish between 25-40 lbs! Lost a few more that we had a great fight with until they broke off. Outstanding day!

    Trip of a lifetime

    Half Day Trip (AM) on June 9, 2026 • 4 adults

    We all caught fish. My husband caught a couple of his bucket list fish and was thrilled. The captain worked to make sure that we were on the fish and had what we needed. He baits your hook and sets you up in the perfect spots. Made sure we had great pictures and a great time. I would fish with him again anytime.

    Hardest workin captain

    Half Day Trip (AM) on March 23, 2026 • 3 adults

    Captain Andrew moved several times in order to put us on good eating fish. We were on fish almost immediately, but they were not our target fish. He knew the bay inside and out and moved when we were not catching our target fish. Overall this was a great experience. I would suggest booking as soon as you have a date available as he is sure to fill up fast. See you next year Captain Andrew.

    This guy here really knows what he is doing. He got my father and I on five huge fish. Amazing thrill. Would definitely recommend, and do it again. He filleted and cleaned our fish as well. We have BAGS of meat.

    Andrew was an absolute amazing captain!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on March 19, 2026 • 2 adults

    Andrew with Blackdot charters was amazing! He put us on fish everywhere he took us, he was very friendly, very good with kids, and great patience! I would recommend him to anyone looking to go catch some fish out of Biloxi and we will be using him when we go back for sure!
