Hook N Line Fishing Charters offers private, family-friendly fishing and cruising experiences based in Biloxi, Mississippi. Operating along the Mississippi Gulf Coast and nearby barrier islands, Captain Nathan Ball focuses on creating relaxed, memorable days on the water for anglers and non-anglers alike. Whether you are looking to catch fish, watch dolphins, explore island beaches, or introduce kids to fishing, each trip is customized to match your group’s pace and interests.
Captain Nathan has spent his life fishing and exploring the Mississippi Gulf Coast, with over six years dedicated specifically to these local waters. After years as a high school teacher, he decided to turn his passion into a business that could support his family while helping others create meaningful memories together. His trips are built around patience, clear instruction, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes guests feel comfortable from the moment they step aboard.
Trips take place on the Madelyn Kaye, a 2009 20-foot Mako 204 powered by a new Yamaha F200 outboard. The boat is equipped with a Minn Kota Terrova trolling motor with I-Pilot for precise boat control and a Lowrance Elite FS-9 to locate fish and structure below the surface. Comfortable seating, bean-bag fighting chairs for kids, and a large ice chest ensure a smooth and enjoyable ride for families and groups.
Fishing trips target popular Gulf Coast species such as Spanish mackerel, cobia, jacks, and sharks, with opportunities for sight fishing when water conditions allow. Captain Nathan provides all rods, reels, bait, and tackle, so guests can simply show up ready to enjoy the day. Catching fish is only part of the experience — learning, laughing, and spending quality time together are just as important.
In addition to fishing, Hook N Line Fishing Charters offers island cruises, dolphin and birdwatching tours, kids fish-and-swim outings, and sunset or booze cruises. Captain Nathan’s experience working alongside local dolphin research programs allows him to share informed insights during wildlife-focused trips. These options make Hook N Line a great choice for mixed groups where everyone wants something different from their time on the water.
