 Shrimp boat lane, Mount Pleasant, SC 29464, United States

Get some top-notch backcountry and nearshore fishing done in Charleston with Shallow Thoughts! Headed by Captain Jeremy Espiritu, this charter company has been operating in this area since 2005, building a superb reputation for themselves.

Up to 5 of your team can fit in their 22’ Shearwater boat. Its 200 HP Yamaha engine can take you up to speeds of 40 knots, so no fishing ground is too far away. Onboard you’ll find all that you need for a successful day of inshore fishing including fishfinder, GPS, wireless trolling motor, and a live bait box.

From Redfish in calm shallow water to giant Shark off the beach, they have a trip to satisfy your appetite for adventure. You can also get your hands on some Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel, and Spotted Seatrout when you’re out with Captain Jeremy. All of the top of the range light and heavy tackle required for this trip is supplied for you so there’s no need to be concerned about the kit. You’ll be using live bait to fish which is included in the price and is ready for you beforehand.

Your fishing license is covered and if any of your catch looks table worthy then it shall be cleaned for you. You should take food, drinks, sunglasses and a hat along with you to keep you refreshed and protected when you’re out on the water.

Jeremy has 20 years of licensed full time, guiding experience in Charleston and has fished in the harbor and surrounding area for over 30 years. You will get the full fishing experience here. From casting your own rod to reeling in your catch, it will be hands-on from the start! I encourage novice anglers, and families to join me. Ill make the fishing easy, and you guys will do the catching!!

I love scheduling fishing trips with Captain Jeremy. Any day or time, I always expect to catch fish when me and my friends schedule a trip with him. Always a great experience!

I grew up in Charleston, SC, and started fishing at a very young age. I became a licensed guide because I wanted other people to experience the thrill of catching fish. My favorite part of the job is the teaching part. It's great to see what you have taught to novices in action and the accomplishment of seeing them catching their first fish.
