Had a group of young guys in from Ole Miss on Spring Break. The head honcho of this pack, likes his string pulled regularly and frequents the Whipasnapa Charter Boat for the cure.

Well, I tell ya good thing they left theirself an extra day, which is a really good idea at least in the spring,even if just going inshore, cause Saturday was just howling(windy). Sunday, we did get to the Island for a lil' before the wind picked up really bad again.

Don't know how many red fish we caught but it was alot. Got offshore Monday. Fairly strong north wind, about 3 to 4 ft. seas suppose and that new boat trucked us right on out there all dry and comfy.

There was a really strong current, I mean really strong, so couldn't really do nothing on the good eating little snapper, did get a couple candy's and trigger, and had a couple of nice grouper.

We had a little trouble getting hardtails but once we did, amberjack madness was happening. Everyone finally landed one (largest one was 46 rest all high 30's) throwed back one a piece also. Funny, them damn things will hurt ya!!!

Found some really nice red snapper, couple almost SOW'S! 20lb on that new Butterfly Jig, they all shallow hardly any in the deep water.

Great time!

Bio: Capt. Robert "Earl" McDaniel was born and raised on the beautiful Back Bay Biloxi shores, and has been a licensed fishing charter boat Captain since 2001. "I have enjoyed fishing as well as boating these beautiful Mississippi waters all my life, and I enjoy it as much today as ever. What a great place to be at the ‘crack of dawn' or anytime for that matter, its just a great place to be, so I like to spend as much time possible even when not fishing, out running crab pots or catching bait. I keep a large variety of bait fish (croaker, pin fish, menhaden etc) on hand for each trip so we always have what the big fish want (specks, cobia, reds, snapper). I have always enjoyed tournament fishing, and have won several snapper, cobia, and king mackerel tournaments. I try to stay prepared for all situations on the water." The "WhipaSnapa" is a 2009, 29 foot c/c open fishermen "SOW MASTER" with twin 2009 250 Yamaha 4 strokes "SWEET". The boat has all modern conveniences including: private restroom, top notch GPS / fish finder, hard-top/enclosures to get out of the elements, plus the finest fishing tackle and weapons, "rods" on board at all times.. We carry all U.S.C.G. required safety equipment on board for the safest, most enjoyable trip. The WhipaSnapa, being just the right size, allows us to go into shallow back bay waters fairly easily to get to the specks, reds, and flounders, or out to the beautiful Barrier Islands for excellent fishing, camping, photography or just relaxing. Or we can get offshore some 100 miles to chase the big boys like "sow" red snapper, cobia, king mackerel, grouper, tuna, and sharks. One thing I have always enjoyed about a day on the wonderful Gulf of Mexico - you just never know. So come join us for a day on the WhipaSnapa and see for yourself how wonderful it can be!
