Reel in Red Snapper: Biloxi's Best Offshore Trip

Ready to chase some of the Gulf's most prized fish? Hop aboard with Captain Jerry McClure for a snapper fishing adventure you won't forget. With Biloxi Bluewater Charters, you're in for 6 to 12 hours of non-stop action targeting Red Snapper and other tasty bottom-dwellers. Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, Captain Jerry's got the know-how to put you on the fish.

What's the Deal?

Picture this: You're cruising out of Biloxi, MS, the coastline fading behind you as Captain Jerry points the bow towards his secret honey holes. The air's salty, the sun's warm, and there's a buzz of excitement on board. You'll be dropping lines over reefs and wrecks where big snappers love to hang out. Jerry's been at this for decades, so he knows exactly where those fish are hiding. No need to stress about gear or licenses - it's all covered. Just bring your game face and maybe a cooler for your catch. Fair warning: once you feel that telltale thump on your line and start reeling in a big red, you might get hooked on Biloxi fishing for good.

Snappers and Bottom Bumping

We're talking serious bottom fishing here, folks. You'll be using heavy tackle and bait to tempt those snappers up from their rocky lairs. Captain Jerry will show you the ropes if you're new to it. It's all about feeling the bite, setting the hook just right, and then hanging on as you winch up a feisty snapper from the depths. We're usually fishing anywhere from 60 to 200 feet down, so it's a real workout. But trust me, when you see that flash of red coming up from the blue, it's all worth it. And it's not just snappers - you might tangle with some hard-fighting cobia or even hook into a king mackerel if they're running. The Gulf's full of surprises, and that's what makes every trip an adventure.

Thank you Capt Jerry and Tommy for creating such wonderful memories for me and my family!" - Eli

Gulf of Mexico Gamefish

Red Snapper: These are the stars of the show, folks. Known for their bright red color and fierce fights, Red Snapper are the pride of the Gulf. They typically range from 5 to 20 pounds, but don't be shocked if you hook into a 30-pounder. These guys live around reefs and wrecks, and they're not shy about taking a bait. The meat is white, flaky, and downright delicious - perfect for a post-trip fish fry. Red Snapper season is strictly regulated, but Captain Jerry knows the rules inside and out, so you're in good hands.

Mutton Snapper: While Red Snapper get all the glory, Mutton Snapper are a prized catch in their own right. These copper-colored beauties can grow up to 30 pounds and put up one heck of a fight. They're a bit wilier than their red cousins, often requiring a more finessed approach. Muttons hang around similar structure to Red Snapper but tend to be a bit deeper. When you hook one, get ready for some serious pulling - these fish don't give up easily. The taste? Out of this world. Many locals will tell you they prefer Mutton to Red Snapper, but you'll have to decide for yourself.

Cobia: While we're primarily after snapper, don't be surprised if a cobia crashes the party. These streamlined fighters, also known as ling or lemonfish, are opportunistic feeders that often show up around the boat. They're curious by nature and can grow to over 100 pounds. Cobia put up an epic battle, often making long runs and even jumping. If you're lucky enough to hook one, it'll be a highlight of your trip. They're in season year-round in federal waters, so it's always a possibility to add one to your cooler.
