Fishing Ocean Springs
A short, sheltered coast behind barrier islands, with long fishing piers, harbors and river mouths.
What's biting now (Fall): Speckled trout and redfish feed along the sound and marshes; flounder move toward the passes.
Commonly caught in this area: Speckled trout, redfish, flounder, sheepshead and Spanish mackerel.
Also caught here: croaker, black drum, hardhead catfish, jack crevalle, tripletail, cobia.
Shallow flats fish best on a rising tide that pushes fish up to feed. Move slowly, wear polarized glasses and look for tailing fish or nervous water. Cast ahead of fish, not on top of them.

How the bite outlook works
The rating is our estimate, not a guarantee. It combines tide range, wind, rain and storms, temperature swings, the moon phase and how well the solunar periods line up with dawn and dusk. Fish do not read forecasts - local knowledge always wins. Read more
