Join Salty Seas Charters and have a great day exploring and fishing the waters of St. Helena Island, South Carolina. Captain Mike Rentz will take you inshore and nearshore and help you land a great catch and have the best experience on the water possible. Join him and create many fond memories fishing the beautiful and rich waters of Salty Seas Charters!

You’ll use a restored 22’ Pathfinder bay boat that’s powered by a 225 HP Yamaha engine and that can take up to 6 guests. The boat uses GPS, fishfinder, and radio technology for effective navigation, a wireless trolling motor for easier fishing, and has also got a livewell to supply you with live bait.

Fishing inshore and nearshore, you’ll have the chance to target Tarpon, King Mackerel, Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Cobia, and Redfish. Using light and heavy tackle, you’ll attract them by bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, as well as fly fishing. You can bring your kids aboard and you can keep the fish you catch.

Captain Mike will provide you with both regular and fly fishing equipment, live bait, lures, drinks, fishing licenses, and will even clean and fillet your catch at no extra cost. That being said, the only thing you should bring on your trip is the food of your choice.

Join Captain Mike and Salty Seas Charters for a memorable day on the water!

Captain Mike did a great job guiding 6 grown men on the trip. Fishing was tough according to everyone out there. We managed to catch 16 fish. We had several to pull off. Had several we just clearly missed. So we had opportunity to have a outstanding day to be the dog days of summer. Would definitely fish with him again and recommend him for your next trip or your first trip.

Capt Mike Is Awesome!

VERIFIED

Capt Mike did an amazing job on our trip with my wife, in-laws and I. We had some inexperienced anglers on their first time fishing and Capt Mike was very instructive and made it as easy as possible to catch fish. We caught plenty of fish, had a ton of bites, and overall had an amazing experience. Can’t wait to do it again next year with Capt Mike!
