trip description for Badass Offshore - Americat in Gulf Shores

Captain Jerry's brand new Americat is a fishing Machine! With three brand new 300 HP Suzuki's strapped to the back, she is the fastest boat in their fleet. She is fast and comfortable with plenty shade from the sun, and full head (restroom). This boat is perfect for the avid fishermen looking to wear out the snapper bite and get legitimate shots at grouper on a 6-hour trip if you're dedicated to the species! but shines on the 8, 10, and 12 hour trips. 8, 10, and 12 hour trips are where the triple 300's shine. This new americat is fast enough to get out to the big fish yet bring comfort along for the ride!! These are the captain’s favorite trips as it allows time to target bigger fish for the box as well as other species of fish. These trips give you time to fish and enjoy the day just soaking up the deep sea adventure. We normally focus on getting a limit of big snapper while mixing in grouper and other off shore species depending on what is migrating through at that time. The captain is normally tuned in on what has the highest probability of keeping the excitement rolling. The best part of the full day trips is there is time to work on big fish and enjoy just being on the water. With plenty shade to take a break, have some lunch, or continue to catch fish like you are mad at them!!!! We ask you bring on wipe sunscreen rather than spray on as the spray gets the floor slick and makes the deck more hazardous. All you need to bring is drinks, snacks, and a camera for pictures. The captain and deck hand make sure your day is safe, fun, and full of fish catching experience. The deck hand works hard to keep you baited up, rigged up, catching fish, and keeping you comfortable. When we arrive back at the dock the crew will clean and bag your fish for you to take and enjoy. It is customary to tip the deck hand 10-20%. The captain will be calling or texting you to connect a day or so before the trip to answer any questions and make sure everyone knows where and when to meet up. There are plenty fish in the ocean, it is just about knowing where and how to catch them, and having fun doing it!!!! Read More

What is amberjack fishing in Biloxi all about?

Amberjack fishing in Biloxi offers anglers a thrilling opportunity to target one of the Gulf Coast's most formidable and powerful game fish. Known for their impressive size, strength, and relentless fighting ability, amberjack are revered by anglers for providing exhilarating battles and memorable catches. These large pelagic fish inhabit the deeper offshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico, where they patrol around wrecks, reefs, and oil rigs, making them a challenging yet rewarding target for anglers in Biloxi.

To target amberjack in Biloxi, anglers often utilize heavy tackle and sturdy equipment, as these fish are known for their strong, fast runs and stubborn resistance. Bottom fishing techniques, such as dropping live bait or vertical jigs to the depths near offshore structures, are commonly employed to entice strikes from amberjack. Using live baitfish, such as blue runners or cigar minnows, or large jigs and artificial lures, anglers can present enticing offerings to these voracious predators lurking in the depths.

Amberjack fishing in Biloxi is typically productive year-round, with peak seasons often occurring during the warmer months when water temperatures rise and baitfish populations thrive. However, amberjack can also be targeted in deeper offshore waters during cooler months, providing anglers with opportunities for exciting battles even in the offseason. Whether fishing from private boats, charter vessels, or offshore platforms, anglers can enjoy the challenge and excitement of battling these powerful fish while soaking in the scenic beauty of Biloxi's coastal waters.

What are the most popular months to fish for amberjack fishing in Biloxi?

In Biloxi, the seasons for targeting amberjack follow a pattern influenced by various environmental factors and the behavior of these formidable game fish. Generally, the amberjack season peaks during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when water temperatures rise and baitfish populations thrive in the Gulf of Mexico's offshore waters. During this time, amberjack are more active and accessible near offshore structures such as wrecks, reefs, and oil rigs, where they congregate in search of prey.

As temperatures begin to cool heading into fall and winter, the amberjack season in Biloxi may experience a slight decline in activity, particularly in shallower offshore waters. However, amberjack can still be targeted in deeper offshore areas where water temperatures remain relatively warmer, providing anglers with opportunities for exciting battles even during the offseason. Additionally, seasonal fluctuations in baitfish populations and ocean currents can influence the movements and feeding patterns of amberjack, impacting their availability to anglers throughout the year.

Despite potential seasonal variations, Biloxi's mild climate and rich marine ecosystem ensure that amberjack fishing opportunities remain promising year-round. Anglers can adapt their fishing techniques and strategies to target amberjack in different seasons, whether dropping live bait or vertical jigs near offshore structures or trolling offshore waters. By understanding the seasonal patterns of amberjack in Biloxi's coastal waters, anglers can maximize their chances of success and enjoy rewarding fishing experiences throughout the year.

What techniques are popular for catching amberjack in Biloxi?

Amberjack fishing in Biloxi demands a strategic approach and specialized techniques to reel in these powerful and resilient game fish. One effective method for targeting amberjack is bottom fishing near offshore structures such as wrecks, reefs, and oil rigs. Anglers typically use heavy tackle and sturdy equipment to handle the formidable strength of amberjack. Live baitfish such as blue runners, cigar minnows, or mullet are commonly employed to entice strikes from these voracious predators. Anglers can drop bait rigs or vertical jigs to the depths near the structures where amberjack are known to congregate, allowing the bait to drift naturally with the current to attract bites.

Trolling near offshore structures or along the edges of reefs and wrecks is another productive technique for amberjack fishing in Biloxi. Anglers can tow large diving plugs or rigged baits behind a slow-moving boat, covering a wide area in search of feeding fish. Varying trolling speeds and depths allows anglers to adjust to changing conditions and increase their chances of encountering amberjack. Trolling also offers the advantage of covering more ground to locate active fish, making it an efficient method for anglers targeting amberjack in Biloxi's offshore waters.

Jigging with vertical jigs or butterfly jigs is a popular and effective technique for targeting amberjack in Biloxi. Anglers can drop jigs to the bottom and jig them upward in a rhythmic motion to mimic the movement of fleeing baitfish. Amberjack are known to respond well to this action, particularly when feeding actively around offshore structures. Anglers should use heavy-duty jigging rods and reels equipped with high-strength braided line to handle the powerful strikes and vigorous fights of amberjack. By mastering these techniques and adapting to changing conditions, anglers can enjoy successful amberjack fishing outings in Biloxi's abundant offshore waters.

What other species are popular in Biloxi?

Aside from amberjack, Biloxi's coastal waters offer a diverse array of other species to target, ensuring anglers have plenty of options for exciting fishing adventures. One notable catch is the red snapper, renowned for its delicious flavor and challenging fight. Red snapper inhabit the reefs and wrecks scattered throughout Biloxi's offshore waters, providing anglers with ample opportunities to test their skills in landing these prized game fish. Using live bait, cut bait, or artificial lures, anglers can entice red snapper to strike and enjoy the thrill of reeling in these powerful and colorful fish.

Another sought-after species in Biloxi's waters is the grouper, known for its impressive size and robust fighting ability. Grouper can be found near offshore structures such as reefs, wrecks, and oil rigs, where they lurk in search of prey. Anglers targeting grouper often utilize bottom fishing techniques with heavy tackle and sturdy equipment to handle the fish's powerful strikes and attempts to retreat into structure. Using live bait, such as squid or pinfish, or large jigs and artificial lures, anglers can present enticing offerings to grouper and enjoy the challenge of battling these formidable opponents.

For anglers seeking inshore adventures, Biloxi offers opportunities to target species such as speckled trout, redfish, and flounder in the shallower waters of bays, estuaries, and marshes. Speckled trout, in particular, are prized for their delicate flavor and spirited fight, making them a popular catch among anglers of all skill levels. Using live bait, artificial lures, or fly fishing techniques, anglers can pursue speckled trout year-round, with peak seasons typically occurring in spring and fall. With its diverse fishery and abundant marine life, Biloxi promises exciting opportunities for anglers to reel in a wide variety of species and create lasting memories on the water.

    We Loved Captain Shawn! He was patient, helpful and very engaging. If the fish weren’t biting in one spot he’d move to another. We caught a variety of species and was knowledgeable about every one we caught . He realized how excited I was to see the dolphins so he got them to jump in our waves from the boat. Every time we saw them he was sure to try to get them to interact with us. His boat was very nice and clean, you could tell he loved his boat. IT WAS AWESOME! We plan on a second trip with him to do offshore fishing next. We enjoyed his inshore trip and hospitality! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! One more thing… although we didn’t bring our 10 year old son I definitely would not hesitate to take him out on a Captain Shawn’s boat! He’s a family man, I could tell he would do great with younger passengers as well.

    Capt. Shawn took our group of 4 Inland Fishing June 13th, 2023. He knows the area well, has a nice boat and provides Top of the Line Gear. Our 4 Hour trip went by way to fast as we all had a great time. The region we fished received hard rain the night before, so the Fishing started slow but picked up mid-morning and he put us on Redfish and Trout. I recommend and will definitely book another fishing charter with Capt. Shawn our next trip to the Gulf Shores area. Capt. Shawn guides both Offshore and Inland. Our next trip will be the 6 Hour Off Shore charter for Red Snapper.

    Kevin P. with Shawn S. of Bon Secour, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    Great trip- Right on time, easy to work with! Caught a handful of Spanish Mackerel on the way out, and while the fishing overall was a little slow, Steve got us on some fish and we had a blast- His deckhand was amazing and didn't stop working until he was done cleaning our fish back at the dock- Would definitely go again!~!!

    Mark B. with Stephen C. of Gulf Shores, Alabama

  • ★★★★★
    10/10 experience with Captain Shawn!!! He was so patient and knowledgeable! When putting on a new hook from our snag, he taught my 10 year old nephew a new fishing knot! He put us right in the fish and took us to a hot dolphin spot to see them in the wild! We had a FANTASTIC time!
