Book your next trip with RedTail Charters and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Mount Pleasant for more. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Benjamin can tell you all about them.

These waters are known for Redfish, Speckled Trout, Sheepshead, Tarpon, Tripletail, and more. During the trip, you might be light tackle fishing or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Benjamin also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear. Any fish within the legal limit is yours to keep.

Your boat for the day is a 17' Skiff that holds up to 2 passengers. It comes with and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more. It's always wise to bring snacks, drinks, sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but avoid hard liquor and glass bottles.

You could keep reading this, but wouldn't you rather be fishing with RedTail Charters?

Sight fishing for Reds !!!

6 Hour Trip on May 19, 2026 • 2 adults

If you enjoy the hunt for tailing Reds, then Captain Ben is the guy.  He put us on redfish constantly in waters less than a foot or so deep.  He has the ideal boat (skiff) for this type of fishing up in the rivers and channels off of Charleston Harbor.  With a 60 HP motor, a lot of water can be covered.  And then using a 20 ft pole, he maneuvers around the shallow grass flats with ease.  There is nothing like spotting the fins and tails of these redfish and then casting right to them in the shallow waters.  Captain Ben can spot them with ease from on top of his poling stand and put you right on them.  If you like this type of fishing, you can definitely learn a lot from him.  I wouldn't hesitate to book him again.

Wanna catch some fish? Schedule with Capt. Ben!!!!

6 Hour Trip on November 6, 2025 • 2 adults

My husband LOVES fishing...pretty much will fish anywhere, anytime for all types of fish. He does his research and we have gone on some amazing guided fishing trips in various waters. We were going to Charleston, SC for a work conference and planned to go a day early so we could incorporate a little fishing. Trent found RedTail Charters of Mount Pleasant with Captain Ben and booked the trip. We had it scheduled for a morning trip but Ben said it looked like the afternoon was going to be perfect weather. And he was right! It was a beautiful fall day with minimal winds (for the most of it). We caught some red fish, blue fish, trout, and I caught my first lizard fish! I have never seen one of those. But that wasn't what we were fishing for...Trent wanted to catch some good reds and do some site-fishing -- and Ben didn't disappoint! Too bad we didn't get to enjoy them for dinner but it was so fun to catch! This was one of my favorite guided fishing trips and Ben was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and had a clean boat! HIGHLY recommend you book your fishing trip with Ben at RedTail Charters. We will definitely be returning and booking him again!

Outstanding Redfish Trip!

4 Hour Trip on May 29, 2026 • 2 adults

Capt. Ben is friendly and welcoming. We faced windy conditions but he knew just the adjustments to make to the plan to give us the opportunity to still be successful. His knowledge of the fish and the river are top notch. We caught many big fish and had an incredible time.

6 Hour Trip on October 18, 2025 • 2 adults

My daughter and I did a 6hr. trip and it was absolutely terrific. I was very impressed with Bens knowledge of the area and gishing holes. Also he made sure my daughter caught fish and even prioritized her when it was needed to make sure she had a good time. So fun. we caught Redfish and trout both with spinning rods and fly rods.

Captain Ben gave us a great experience and we can't wait to get back on the water with him.  He was very knowledgeable about fishing and a lot of fun to talk to.  Captain Ben seemed to know every bend in the river and took us to where the fish were biting.  Nice clean boat and overall great time. Thank you Captain Ben!
