Capt. Brian Gagnon – (100 ton master) Being a native of Bay St. Louis, Brian was born in a skiff. Running around all day from the Jourdan river down to the barrier islands and surrounding marshes is just a way of life. Natives of Bay St. Louis don’t get the nickname “bay rat” for nothing. Brian started on “The Southern Way” spring of 2004 and recently obtained his 100 ton master license.

Capt. Kyle Jarreau – (100 ton master) Kyle has lived in Biloxi all his life. His 30 year experience fishing Chandeleur island makes him a valuable part of the team. There are few places, if any, on the island he does not know. Kyle had his own Chandeleur boat prior to his employment with “The Southern Way”, and was a regular at the isle. In between Chandeleur trips Kyle also ran snapper trips to the rigs out of Biloxi on his 25’ Mako. Kyle usually is responsible for the fare you will be eating and you will be quite pleased.
 

You will be pleased with not only the experience of your crew, but also the patience, knowledge, and don’t forget the stories. Look forward to seeing you.
