Silver Dollar III Charters is a Biloxi, Mississippi–based fishing charter operated by Captain Jay Trochesset and rooted in a legendary, multi‑generation charter boat family. The company specializes in guided offshore and nearshore fishing trips tailored to anglers of all skill levels. Available trip options include 4-hour, 6-hour, and 8-hour charters, plus a dedicated 8-hour Snapper Charter that travels over 30 miles from shore.
Captain Jay Trochesset brings decades of experience and a reputation for skill; descriptions of the 6‑hour and 8‑hour trips reference the Familynn and highlight targeted species such as Redfish and Spanish Mackerel. The Snapper Charter focuses on snapper species found farther offshore. Charters typically range from 10 to 25 miles offshore for the 6-hour trips and 10 to 20 miles for the 8-hour trips, matching seasonal patterns and fishing conditions.
Silver Dollar III Charters emphasizes safety, local knowledge, and a commitment to quality customer experiences. The captain’s family legacy and long-standing presence in the Biloxi fishing community contribute to the company's trustworthiness. Boats and gear are maintained to meet charter standards, and trips are planned to maximize fishing opportunity while responding to weather and tide conditions.
Anglers booking with Silver Dollar III Charters can expect guided instruction, species-focused trips, and the opportunity to fish productive Gulf waters off Biloxi. Reservations are recommended for peak seasons and specialty trips. Advance booking is advised to secure preferred dates, group sizes, and to accommodate seasonal fishing targets and bait availability.
