Come visit Charter Boat Family Tradition and see what the Mississippi gulf coast has to offer. Capt. JJ Brumble will show you and your family a great time exploring the area, taking you inshore, nearshore, to reefs, flats, or the backcountry. The captain has over 20 years of experience guiding and charter fishing along the entire gulf coast from Destin to Texas, and now Biloxi including places in between! Charter Boat Family Tradition can't wait to see you on your next adventure.

The boat you'll be fishing from is a 25' Tidewater Carolina Bay center console made in 2022. It can take up to 6 guests, runs on a 300 HP Yamaha engine, and uses GPS, fishfinder, and radio electronics for quick and safe movement on the water. The boat also comes with a wireless trolling motor, an ice-box, and a livewell.

On your trip, you and the captain can catch Jack Crevalle, Mangrove Snapper, Blacktip Shark, Sheepshead, Flounder, Redfish, and other fine species. You'll be drift fishing on light tackle to attract your prey and you're free to keep your catch.

Captain JJ encourages kids to come fishing. Join him out there and show them what nature has in store beyond everyday life.

Live bait and tackle are provided for you, as are fishing licenses and fish cleaning. Bring nothing but the snacks and drinks of your choice.
If you have any questions, please let the captain know.

The Captain might be able to pick you up for your arranged charter if you are located within 10 miles of the boat address.

Charter Boat Family Tradition looks forward to making memories with your family!

    Captain JJ put us on a big one!

    3hr beginner on September 22, 2026 • 4 adults

    such a great morning. Captain JJ is the man! For just a two hour trip I wasn’t expecting to catch a 40 lb jack! It was incredible. He helped this kid who works for me catch his first ever fish. Couldn’t recommend him more!

    Made my birthday awesome!!

    3hr beginner on August 17, 2026 • 2 adults

    Charter Family Boat Tradition was the perfect way to end my birthday weeknd. Capt. JJ was patient, very knowledgeable, down to earth. You can definately tell he has a passion for what he does. Not only did he help us catch the fish, he also cleaned, filleted and porovded ice for us to take our catch back. Great experience, so much fun.

    Great Host

    Half Day Trip (AM) on June 25, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    We went not during a great time of year, so catching fish was hit or miss, but we still caught some. Great guide on the history of the area and most importantly really appreciate how he treated my 11 year old son. Captain JJ is a top notch individual.

Captain JJ grew up fishing along the Emerald and Gulf coast in the early 90s. Fishing has always been the captain's passion and he has always been on the water. He knew from a young age that his career would be on the water, fishing. The captain enjoys taking families and kids out to see their excitement and to get and chase that 'big bite'. And last but not least – go gators! Captain JJ can't wait to see everyone soon.
