Captain Bill offers a professional fishing charter service based near Biloxi, Mississippi. He has been fishing the Mississippi Gulf Coast for 30 years and will use his wealth of experience to lead you to the fish and show you how to tackle them. His specialty is family fishing trips that aim to instill within them a love for the water and fishing.
His boat, Dominator II is a recently restored 26’ Mako center console that’s powered by twin 225 HP Yamaha 4 stroke engines that will get you to the fish fast. It is ideal for fishing close to the shore due to its traditional build that allows it to go inshore and deepsea waters with ease.
Inshore and nearshore trips will involve fishing for plenty of Trout and Atlantic Kingfish. These family friendly charters are ideal for all levels of fisherman - whether you are a complete beginner or expert Redfish angler, Capt. Bill will provide a great experience where everyone gets to hold their own rod and catch their own fish.
Your fishing license is provided for this trip as is all of your bait and tackle. Capt. Bill is also happy to clean your catch for you, just be sure to give him a 10-20% tip for it. Take some food and drinks with you as well as sunshades and sunscreen if the sun’s shining.
So if you’re looking for a new hobby or a one off trip for the kids then you don’t need to look any further than Capt. Bill.

Half Day Trip – Inshore on December 26, 2024
Captain Bill was very responsive. He followed up immediately after I booked the trip. He told us honestly that fishing might not be great due to the time of year and weather. We decided to try anyway. The weather wasn't great, but captain Bill put us on the fish. My family of 5 caught a good mess of fish and had a blast doing it. Captain Bill was busy the whole time untangling our lines for the kids and scooping up our catches with the net. He told us a lot about the fishing culture here and the ecology of the gulf coast. Definitely recommend this fishing charter.

3/4 Day Trip - Inshore on February 15, 2025
Went on last minute fishing trip (booked the day before lol) We went off season. We still had a good time! Captain Bill was great and worked diligently to get us on fish and catching them! Even stayed past time when we were on an active spot getting plenty of bites & catching multiple fish :) So peaceful out on the water inbetween catching fish.

We had a great time with Captain Bill! We had the weather against us, but Captain Bill worked hard to get us on some fish! Other charters were reaching out to Captain Bill during our trip and they were not finding any fish, and we had a good amount to bring home! Thank you again for the fun time, your hospitality and hard work!
