Awesome morning in Charleston

Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) on April 5, 2026 • 2 adults

We had a great morning fishing charter in early April in Charleston, South Carolina with Brent Welch. Brent was knowledgeable, professional, and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. The weather was beautiful, the fishing was fun, and he knew exactly where to go to keep us on fish. Highly recommend Brent if you’re looking for a relaxed and well-run charter in the Charleston area.

Best Charter Ever!

Half Day Trip – Inshore (AM) on March 26, 2026 • 2 adults

We have been on several charters throughout our travels and this was definitely the best. Captain Brent kept us on the fish and demonstrated his seasoned knowledge many times. Felt like we were fishing with a friend and not on a charter. Captain Brent kept hooks baited and coached us along as needed with great tips and tricks for landing 20+ fish!
