Our in-shore and near-shore fishing trips run anywhere from 2 to 8 hours for up to 4 people and will target a variety of species depending on the time of year. Fishing doesn’t always mean catching, and conditions are not always optimal, so in order to ensure the greatest chance of success on a given trip, it’s important to be versatile. I fish the coastal and nearshore waters from Charleston to Georgetown year-round, targeting a multitude of species, including spotted seatrout, red drum, sheepshead, and sharks.
