Captain Nick Brown and North Island Fishing Charters Crew welcome you for a sea adventure out of Georgetown, South Carolina. Captain Nick and crew does fishing trips to inshore and nearshore grounds showing you South Carolina's beautiful waters full of many different fish to catch. Book your trip today and join the captains on the water to make some memories for you and your family!

You'll start your journey on a 23' Sportsman bay boat that runs on a 250 HP Yamaha engine and sits up to 6 anglers. The boat uses all the modern GPS, fishfinder, and radio technology that allows for efficient and safe movement on the water. There's also a wireless trolling motor for a more cautious approach to your targets, as well as a livewell to provide you with live bait.

You and the captains will be chasing species such as Tarpon, Flounder, Sheepshead, Spotted Seatrout, Cobia, and more. To catch them, you can use light and heavy tackle bottom fishing and Flounder gigging. Depending on the species, you're allowed to keep the fish you catch and take it home. Kids are welcome to come aboard, so feel free to bring your whole family and have a wonderful time on the water together.

Captain Nick Brown and crew will take care of all the fishing equipment you'll need as well as fishing licenses. Bring the food and drinks of your choice and you'll be set to go.

North Island Fishing Charters welcomes you aboard!

We depart from Hazzard marine located in Georgetown at 200 Meeting ST Georgetown, SC 29440.

Awesome Capt. and we completed the inshore slam and some!!
Half Day Trip (AM) on August 19, 20262 adults

Great experience with Capt Nate!! we did the 4 hr 7am-11 inshore chater. He's 22ft Bullsbay bay boat was well equipped and very comfortable. All the gear and tackle was ready for any kind of fishing. We caught tons of spottail bass, speckled sea trout, flounder, black drum, pinfish, ladyfish, blue runner, and croaker. I would highly recommend booking a charter with them.

great short sunset trip
2 Hour Trip – Sunset Fishing on July 30, 20261 adult1 child

we (myself and grand son) took fishing trip with captain Nate at sunset. Nate is knowledgeable captain and has well equipt and well maintain boat. And, we did catch fish. Unfortunately catch was way above state limits and had to let it go. Bottom line - we will be happy to shedule fishing tour with this charter/captain as soon we are back in the area
