Ocean Legacy visits Mississippi

by Yellowfin 1 Jun 2022 08:08 PDT

The crew from Ocean Legacy traveled to Biloxi, Mississippi recently to film an exciting new episode for season three with Capt. Arik Bergerman.

We fished aboard Caliente, Bergerman's new Yellowfin 39 Offshore, powered by three of Mercury's new 600 hp, V-12 Verados.

To say the boat's performance was impressive would be a massive understatement: It was fast, quiet, and surprisingly fuel efficient, enabling us to effortlessly travel at high speed to oil rigs and reefs far offshore. The big kingfish were there and the bite was steady. We based our trip out of the beautiful Golden Nugget Hotel and Casino, the perfect base of operations for any Biloxi fishing adventure.

Check out this and all of our all-new episodes beginning in September, on The Discovery Channel! Here are some more photos from the trip courtesy of our good friend Robbie Carter, @fishkingmaster.

Loads of amenity - Goes like a cut cat
As the first Cure 55 steps closer to being splashed it looked more like a Purosangue to me As the first Cure 55 steps ever closer to being splashed, I could not help thinking that it was a lot like the Ferrari Purosangue. More space than your typical two-seat hypercar, yet with the punch to dispatch distances and pretenders with complete ease. Posted on 16 May
