Join Four Sons Charters and together explore Charleston's beautiful inshore and nearshore waters as well as the historical Charleston Harbor, flats, and the backcountry, all brimming with quality fish.

You'll start your journey on a 24' Blazer Bay center console that can take up to 6 guests. Along with all the modern navigation technology, the boat's powerful 300 HP Mercury engine allows you and the captain to quickly reach the desired fishing spots. The boat also features a wireless trolling motor, ice-box, and livewell.

You and the captain will be targeting whatever is biting the most. While the warm summer months bring big bull Redfish and sharks, the colder months make it possible to catch creek Redfish, Trout, and Flounder. There's also a chance to occasionally bump into Tarpon. You'll target by spinning on light tackle and you get to keep all the fish you catch. Kids are also welcome to join aboard.

Apart from all the rods, reels, and tackle, the captain will also cover you for live bait, lures, and fishing licenses. And he'll even clean and fillet your catch free of charge. Before you depart, just make sure that you've packed some food and drinks to stay energized throughout the trip.

Visit Four Sons Charters and enjoy a pleasant and fun day fishing in Charleston, SC.

    Half Day Trip (AM) on July 7, 2026 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Third year in a row with 4-sons and Capt. Andrew for my boys birthday trip. We had the best bite out of all the trips. Captain Andrew always puts us on the fish. We will be back again for number 4.

    Great experience

    Half Day Trip on July 3, 2025 • 4 adults

    This was the first time my sons and I have been on a charter and it was the best experience ever. Austin our guide was great very knowledgeable and showed my kids, father, and I a great time catching all kinds of things from stingrays to bonnethead sharks. I would highly recommend this charter especially Austin to anyone looking to have a good time and a great experience.

    caught all the fishes in the sea

    Half Day Trip (AM) on June 18, 2024 • 3 adults

    This was our first experience on a chartered fishing trip. Andrew took us out with our father-in-law and we had so much fun catching lots of fish together! Andrew knew great spots to take us, didn't give any attitude about our inexperience (lol), and is generally just a nice guy. We specified that we couldn't go anywhere too rough because one in our group gets seasick, and the waters he took us to were super calm. He hyped up our catches and made it a great time, thanks Andrew!

    2 hour shark fishing with captain Taylor

    2 hour Shark Fishing (PM) on June 26, 2023 • 4 adults • 2 children

    We ventured on a two hour shark fishing trip in late June. Our captain,Taylor, did a fantastic job of explaining everything and answering so many questions about fishing and the Charleston sites we could see on shore. Our 13 year old fisherman caught three sharks!! Taylor did a great job of coaching him how to reel them in but let our son do all the work (which he loved!) Though we are from Wisconsin and have no experience with large bodies of water fishing, Taylor made us feel completely safe out on the water. I would highly recommend Four Sons Charters for a memorable experience!

    Half Day Trip (AM) on July 8, 2025 • 2 adults • 1 child

    Had a great day today July 8th, we caught a 31” red tagged red, had a double hookup with two 40”+ reds, and two others around 34”. Captain Andrew worked his magic. Thank you, 4-Sons and captain Andrew for giving my boy an amazing birthday for the second year in a row.

    Our sons will never forget this trip

    3 Hour Trip – Shark Fishing on July 24, 2024 • 5 adults • 3 children

    We are from KS & our 17, 13, & 11 yo sons looked forward to this part of our trip for weeks. Taylor, our guide, made the trip all about them & getting them on fish, helping them understanding the environment, the methods, the fish, & everything around. He did a fantastic job coaching them & helping all of us enjoy the experience. We caught several nice fish and loved every minute. Highly recommended!!

    Half Day Trip - Superb Catch & Release

    Half Day Trip (AM) on June 24, 2023 • 5 adults • 2 children

    Great day for my Grandson Bradley and for all of us. Being 12 years old he worked hard to keep going for at least 15 to 17 minutes when he hooked this shark. Proud Grandfather. Captain Tyler guided and encouraged him all the way. He had an earlier bite but unfortunately lost the battle. We had bites of our targeted fish but released because of size and some unexpected non-target fish and release. Could not have asked for a better companion for my grandson. Good day for sure. Four Sons Charter rates a 5-star group. Thank you!

    7/5/23 Harbor fishing trip with Captain Taylor

    Half Day Trip on July 5, 2023 • 4 adults

    Today we had a great fishing trip with Captain Taylor. He’s a great Captain and tour guide. You can tell he really enjoys what he’s doing. He was very patient with our questions about everything. He also took his time explaining the techniques we were using and why we were doing them. I would highly recommend this service. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned angler, Taylor can show you a thing or two. I hope everyone has a good of time as we had that day. Happy fishing.
