Mississippi Sound - Saltwater Fishing Report
Ran a trip on Friday in all of that nasty westerly wind, and stayed in close to find a mess of fish.

Had Dr. Roger Labonte from Georgia aboard, and this would be catch and release since he didn't have a way to keep any fish.
First stop delivered a good bite on the hard fighting sheepshead, and Roger landed a dozen or so, a fine speckled trout, as well as 2 small redfish.

Winds shifted later in the day, and we made it out to a near shore oyster reef, and there Roger got into a good white trout and ground mullet bite.
The bite really turned on, and it was soon a fish on every cast. On live shrimp and a bottom rig it was game on, and we left the fish biting like crazy.
Brought in 20 or so for my supper, and let me tell you they were delicious. Scaled, filleted, and removed the rib cage leaving boneless fillets for the frying pan.
By the way, I roll the fillets in yellow mustard coating them lightly, then roll them in Zatarain's Fish-Fri, and the toss them into hot grease frying them golden brown.

Soon our inshore reefs will be loaded up with the tasty white trout and ground mullet, and it will be some of the most enjoyable light tackle fun around. No finess casting is needed, and the bite can literally be non stop at times.
From the looks of things a week or two of warm weather will have the fishing really hot here in south Mississippi, so be sure to book your fishing trip aboard TEAM BRODIE CHARTERS well in advace.
Hopefully the weather will settle down a bit, and we'll be giving the big bull reds another shot this coming week.

Looks like another great season aboard TEAM BRODIE CHARTERS and anglers are already booking their trips months in advance.
Until next report keep it safe out there and good fishing!
Regards and many thanks to all,

Mississippi Sound Fishing Forecast:
Soon the Florida pompano will be showing up at the barrier islands, and the tripletail a.k.a. "blackfish" will be making their appearance in the Mississippi Sound.
The Florida pompano fishery in south Mississippi can be phenominal at times, and you want to get in on this action for sure. It's a speciality of TEAM BRODIE CHARTERS.
Look for the white trout and ground mullet bite to turn on like wild fire, and it can be one of the fastest fish catching experiences in south Mississippi. These fish are delicious, and there are no limits on these bottom dwellers.
Th big specks and Spanish mackerel will be showing up at the barrier islands too, and the big redfish are still in the surf in good numbers from time to time.
Target Species:
White trout, ground mullet, speckled trout, redfish, flounder, sheepshead
