Background
Hello, my name is Captain Dustin McGill. I am a born and raised Mississippi native here on the Emerald Gulf Coast. I have been fishing the Gulf Coast my entire life and have been in the guiding business for the last 13 years. I started out with my mentor and teacher Captain Ron Harmon at the shipyard, working on our fleet boats, before I became a deckhand. I spent 5 years as a deckhand before proceeding on to Captains School. It has now been 8 years since I started guiding professionally. When I was younger, I used to go on charters all the time with my parents, watching the deckhand, wanting to do what they did. Little did I know that one day I would! Gulfport Fishing Charters is dedicated to your safety and to making sure your trip is as fun and memorable as possible. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned professional we will strive to give you the best experience possible!
Techniques
Bottom fishing and trolling.

Left bright and early to beat the rest of the boats to the honey hole and it paid off! Caught a mess of sheepshead only a few hours! March is the best time of the year for us to catch and target these delicious fish!

Started off the morning as we usually do leaving at 6AM. Got to our first fishing spot where we had been catching our fish for the last few trips with little luck. Was able to box one big finetooth as well as another spinner shark to get the ice dirty. After adequate time fishing our first spot I decided it was time for our next destination. Covered a few miles of water till i saw a good school of bait and we stopped in it and caught all the sharks you could want! Once we finished with our likit of sharks we went off to start trolling for redfish and jacks. It didnt take long before we found them! Another beautiful day on the water!

Started the morning off early as we always do depart the dock at 6. They always say the early bird gets the worm. Well thats just what we did! This time of the year is our favorite because the ride time is low and the fishing time is high! We had our limit of redfish before 7 not to mention our toothy critters as well! We had plenty of throw backs and got to bring some good fish home!
