Target species include Redfish, Flounder, Speckled Trout, Black Drum, and Sheepshead.
Depending on the species you're after, you may find yourself spinning, popping, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Capt. Ronnie operates a 23' Bay boat with a capacity for 4 passengers. It comes with all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter. The cost of live bait will be added to the trip if needed.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise, you should bring your own. You can't go wrong when you bring sunscreen. Bottled water is included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but hard liquor is not allowed. No glass bottles are permitted.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Redbeards' Fishing Charters is just a click away.

    Captain Ronnie met us bright and early! He took us to several fishing spots. The fish weren't biting too much but the trip was fun! Captain Ronnie did his best to help us go home with fish, and we did!

    Saltwater Trip with Redbeards Fishing Charters

    Half Day Trip – Bay Fishing on June 23, 2023

    I am a repeat customer with Captain Huddleston. He has always been punctual (at the dock with boat in water and waiting with bait) and all me and my family had to do was step on his boat! His boat is super nice, roomy, very fast, and comfortable. I felt that me and the family got more than what we paid for on each of the trips we have taken with him. He supplied all the tackle (rod and reels, hooks, weights, etc). He has always put us on some fish. He is a competent captain and he never gave us a reason to feel unsafe. Will book him again for sure.

    Birthday Fishing Trip

    Half Day Trip – Bay Fishing on January 13, 2024

    Our son’s only request for his birthday this year was to go out on a guided fishing trip. We knew the weather wasn’t going to be the greatest for fishing but Ronnie didn’t quit until we found some fish and made our kiddo’s birthday wish come true! It was a great trip and we can’t wait to get back on the boat again with them in the summer!
