    Sharks!

    3 Hour Morning Bite(AM) on October 14, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    Captain Leo and his teammate Neil were great! This was the perfect 3-hour excursion on our fall break vacation from 7am to 10am to get some time out on the water and catch some fun fish. The marina was free parking and easy to find. We didn't venture out far before finding our fishing spot where we caught some catfish, a stingray, one bull red, and over a dozen sharks! They mentioned that that was an abnormal amount of sharks, so don't bank on that, but it sure was a memorable time for us! They did bite off many lines, so I'm not sure Captain Leo liked it too much, but he kept retying lines quickly with the good hooks & weights, along with rebating them with either shrimp or squid for us. This trip was with my dad (69), my son (10), and daughter (8) and they were so kind, encouraging, and helpful to all. I recommend booking a trip with Leo if you're in the Biloxi area!

    Tight Lines & Good Times!

    TIGHT LINES MATTER - 1:00 PM on November 7, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 child

    2 hours was the perfect charter length for our 7 year old first timer. He had the time of his life fishing and learning about the water and local fish from Captain Leo & First Mate Neal. They made sure we were taken care of from start to finish, were patient with our kid, and went above and beyond to make it a memorable day. The boat, fishing, and overall experience were all top-notch. Highly recommend!

    Trip of a lifetime

    Shark Fishing in July - 9:00 AM on July 5, 2026 • 2 adults

    Captain Leo and first mate Neil were extraordinary. We barely were in open water before the first bite. Captain Leo had us catch a few bait fish then showed us how to throw a net for what he called shark crack. Not only did my husband get to fight a huge stingray he caught a black fin and a bonnet shark. Captain was patience personified teaching my hubs how to reel in a saltwater catch. Not only was the fishing phenomenal, we also saw dolphins, logger head turtle, jellyfish, and so much more. The whole experience was a dream come true. Highly recommend Captain Leo!

    Excellent guys!

    3 Hour Afternoon Bite (pm) on October 22, 2026 • 4 adults • 2 children

    Between 4 of us I dont think we ever went more than 5 minutes without catching a fish! And 2 of our 4 were 10 year olds so they weren't able to hold still and prob cost them selves some fish. Lol. But captain Leo and jis crew got them walked through what to do and made it a great trip. Appreciate it guys!

    Great Experience

    3 Hour Morning Bite(AM) on March 14, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 children

    I booked a 3 hour charter to take my two boys fishing. Capt. Leo and Neil were very friendly and accomodating. After a short boat ride we hit the spot where we pulled up more than 20 fish over the next couple of hours. The boys were so excited to fish and were eveb casting on their own by the time we finished. I highly recommend booking these guys for a gamily charter. The kindness and patience of Capt Leo and Neil made this trip and catching a mess of fish put it over the top. i look forward to booking with them in the future.

    Fantastic trip!

    4 Hour Trip (AM) on September 23, 2026 • 2 adults

    Our first hour or so felt more like hunting than fishing - Captain Leo wanted to catch a Cavale Jack, and we sure did. Lots of big fish on our trip - along with a lot of catfish, trout, and croker. Came away with a nice size shark and Spanish mackerel to take home to eat. Wonderful time!!!

    Great time and really nice crew!

    3 Hour Morning Bite(AM) on September 16, 2026 • 2 adults

    The fishing was good. We went with no real plan, we just wanted to get on the water for a few hours. They put us on a hot spot for White Trout and it was non stop. They kept a big pole out also and we pulled in several small sharks. I also really enjoyed their company. Great time. Do it!

    Capt Leo and crew amazing

    3 Hour Morning Bite(AM) on April 28, 2026 • 3 adults

    Family trip to the coast was made even better with our fishing adventure! We took a chance and booked spontaneously with Capt Leo and are so glad we did. We hit a spot that had fish on for 4/4 of us at any given minute and they had no trouble keeping up. The cooking tips were welcomed since we caught such a large variety. 🤗🐟 We saw dolphins and got to make acquaintances with the bait boat too! Thank you so much Leo and Neil for an unforgettable trip!
