Book your next trip with Salty Bridges Charters and find out what you're missing on the Mississippi Gulf Coast! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Tad can tell you all about the local fishery and ensure a great time in the water!
On these trips, you can expect to bottom fish using light or heavy tackle, fish live bait under corks, chase Reds and Trout with artificial lures, wade fish with soft plastics and top water lures, sight cast Tripletail and Cobia, and of course Shark fishing!
My goal is to serve you the best time I'm capable of, so don't hold back from special request! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Also if you want to wade fish, let me know before hand how many people are wading and if you need wading gear or not. You're encouraged to bring snacks and beverages to ward off any mid-trip fatigue!
Capt.Tad welcomes you aboard a 22' Triton center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Capt. Tad will supply rods and reels for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
The charter boat covers your fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.
You can't go wrong when you bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and a hat. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but you should avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.
Go ahead and treat yourself to a day on the water with Salty Bridges Charters.

Victoria Haynie5.0VerifiedGreat day on the water
2.5 hour inshore fishing trip on July 5, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 childCaptain Tad was very outgoing and engaging. He brought us to multiple locations to find different species (flavors) of fish. We caught lady fish, white and speckled trout, sheep head and red fish. We had a few dolphins swim within 3 feet to see what we were catching which was an added bonus that I loved! At the end Tad cleaned and filleted the fish and even gave us cooking tips. It was such a great morning out on the boat; we will definitely do a longer trip and spend some more time on the water with him
Heath Simon5.0VerifiedBest experience ever
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on December 9, 2025 • 2 adultsI brought my father to go fishing, and Captain Tad was very knowledgeable of the area. He got us to areas that produce results more than my expectations. The personal touch that Captain Tad puts forth was exceptional; from baiting the hook, to cleaning the fish. His demeanor was spot on. Our trip was on 9 Dec, which was a little cold, but Tad was a trooper. All in all, I had to add a little bit more as I felt that the price was under value of the trip and our focus was to catch as many fish that we are legally able to. This is the best words that I can think of to describe our adventure, and this is not enough.
Jackie Cotton5.0VerifiedWonderful!!

Taylor Davis5.0VerifiedA great experience!
4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on December 7, 2025 • 4 adultsWe had a group of four guys come in from Atlanta and Tad took care of us! We were met with rain that morning, but it did not slow down the morale and ability to catcu fish. I would highly recommend a trip with Tad for anyone that is looking to enjoy some time out fishing looking to put some fish in the boat!

We had the best time with Capain Tad! He took special care that Mom had the best time on her very first trip out on a fishing charter. She loved every moment. We caught fish, had good conversation, and enjoyed learning from Captain Tad! We look forward to booking with him again inthe future! 🙂

Although we didn’t catch any keepers I still had a great time. Tad took us to numerous sites, only baby red fish were biting. I did catch a 40 - 50 lbs Black Drum but it to big to eat. All ages should be able to use this charter. Tad is very professional. I will book again.
