Thread: Biloxi, MS Fishing

Does anyone have any information about or have fished in Biloxi?
I see they have two piers, Lighthouse Pier and Coliseum Pier.

Never been there to fish, only to give my money to the casinos.

Never have myself, but some inside info @ https://forums.bullnettlenews.com/22...ltwater-forum/

A search of that forum pulled this up...

Those guys on the Bull will help you out....just post up your questions to em....that bunch is what keeps that forum running....

I fish it some.. Garfield ladner has some drum and reds.. occasionally specs.. lots of croaker and white trout at times.
And sharks if you're lucky..
Caught my biggest sail cat there lol.
Some good flojnder near the beau rivage but... theyll run you off.. same for margaritas ville.. i tried to fish behind the parking lot at night when the kids were asleep.. total killjoy with security

Collisueum pier was ok.. didnt catch much in the way of edibles. Did get a offer to catch crabs there from a local.. i turned her down.
I would bring blue crab and quarter it up for reds and drum. Then drive on pier near golden nugget has alot of vagrant and homeless on it last time i went.. so its not very safe..

Also.. last bit of info.. i would CC EVERWHERE down there. I hate the feeling of getting mugged while fishing, but its always in my head while im there.. some sketchy folks..

I have fished the Lighthouse pier at night - lots of bull reds off of the end, but you have to throw far out - cut mullet & large weight with a good surf rod to get way out.

Just about any place you fish around Biloxi (during the summer especially) you can catch lots of white trout. Before security discouraged me from fishing there (as I recall, his words were, "you'll have to leave") a couple of times, I used to fish under/behind the Beau Rivage, catching white trout at night every cast. Similarly, there's a marina near the Hard Rock Casino where I've caught them like that with a 1/4 oz. twister-tail grub and no one said anything to me there. I caught white trout about every time I went out for them, so I imagine that it's a pretty reliable fishery. The qualifier in this is that I went during the summer and the earliest part of fall, so I don't know how fish bite this time of year moving into the late fall/early winter bite.
