Get a good captain with good reviews. Knowledge and professionalism matter. Even if you don’t catch as much as you want, a good ship and crew make or break your trip.

Pick the right size boat for your party and what you want to catch. Salinity was the right size for 2 ppl and we were able to fish close to structures.
Beth Johnson
It was a little chilly and windy but Captain Sonny was an expert in keeping us out of the majority of the wind so that we were able to catch fish! We had so much fun!
Apryl Garcia
We were first time anglers and they taught us what to expect. The fishing will be much better in May as the water warms up!

I take my youngest son once a year on a guided fishing trip and this was the best in our 5 years of going. The first time in gulfport though.

Book early, and remember morning fishing is more productive in mid to late June, due to the hot afternoons

Find a good experienced captain who can recommend the type trip you can catch fish on based on conditions and what they are catching at the time you want to go.

We caught stuff and it was fun, but nothing we could keep so don’t go in with high hopes or rude attitudes

The bite was great, but the fish were all pretty small. It was a great time catching the fish, we just didn't get to keep many.

As with any time of the year, great fishing on the Coast depends a lot on the weather conditions. Some months better than others but there are always plenty of fish to catch.

Bring plenty of sunscreen and water, wide brim hats, lightweight long sleeve shirts

When the fish are bitting be ready. The bite comes fast and it’s quick. Can’t even look away.

Fish in-shore this time of year tend to be a bit smaller; we caught plenty of white trout.
Cody Adank
Just go with the flow and have fun it’s not about the size of the catch but the experience

Leave it all to Captain Chris … He will make sure your trip is unforgettable !

Completely depends on your expectations. Weather can play a part of what you can expect to catch.

Definitely hot…be prepared and pack plenty of refreshments and snacks…sunscreen is a must

The weather was brisk and the wind was stronger than most but we still caught pan fryers.

During hot July, fish near shore and back bay. More action and no boring trolling.
