Due South Fishing Expeditions

Due South Fishing Expeditions welcomes you to Charleston, South Carolina. Come and join Captain Nicholas Boyd on a fishing adventure you will never forget and experience the beautiful endless spartina marshes, oyster mud flats, and wildlife of the low country. This year-long fishery can produce some of the best sight fishing opportunities.

Fishing will be done out of Hell’s Bay Neptune, a well-maintained 18’ Hells Bay Boatworks flats boat and one of the most versatile skiffs on the market. It has the ability to run big open water and chop with almost zero spray.

You will have a memorable time sight fishing for trophy-sized Redfish on fly or light tackle all year round and for Tarpon, Tripletail, and big Jack Crevalle in the warmer months.

All fishing equipment will be provided on the trip with all high-end rods and reels and flies tied by Captain Nicholas. You are more than welcome to bring your own fly rods or spin gear but please let the captain know in advance. He also provides bottled water, ice, and fishing licenses. All you have to do is bring the food of your choice, get on the boat, and enjoy your day out on the water.

Due South Fishing Expeditions is looking forward to seeing you!
