Title: Biloxi
Post by: Mjg378 on March 21, 2019, 02:00:17 AM
I Was going to post this earlier.  (Ran into a plumbing problem in the house I had to take care of first)  Just about every year we head to Biloxi for a weekend of fishing.  It's about a 5 hour drive south of Memphis.     We've been going with the same guide for years and he does an awesome job.  (I posted about Robert earlier under the charter section)  I have 2 sons and they've grown up fishing with me, I always enjoy fishing with my boys and They have really turned into fine fisherman!      We fished Saturday 3/16 and goodness it was cold!  Especially running between spots but the fishing was hot.  We fished light tackle. Penn Fierce 4000's with 10 lb main line and a 30 lb leader with live shrimp on a 1/0 hook.  We Caught redfish,  black drum, sheepshead. (These have vertical stripes and teeth but do not look like the west coast sheepshead) a flounder and a few more.  We released what I'd estimate much more than double what we kept.  Good family Times!

Sounds like a great trip !!  We were in Biloxi on Tuesday.....but not fishing !! We had to make a casino run.....should have fished, instead !! We've caught some fish, here on Dauphin Island , this winter, but it's been slow going.  Way too much fresh / muddy water coming down out of Mobile bay, I guess. Leaving for home tomorrow morning, so my Gulf fishing is all over until December :'(

A great time for sure!    The redfish on my avatar was on light tackle a few years ago, always a fun challenge!  But you all  know the best part is being able to share this love of fishing with my boys.
