Spend the day with Dogfish Charters and find out what the fishing in Charleston is all about! Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Bryan can tell you all about the local fishery.

These waters are known for Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Flounder, Sheepshead, and more – with any luck, it won’t take long to hook into some. On these trips, it’s common to bottom fish using light tackle.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Also remember to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

Your boat for the day is a 19’ MayCraft center console with room for 4 passengers. It has all the essentials. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but you should ask the captain whether you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

Don’t leave home without sunscreen (non-spray) and sunglasses. Bottled water will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with Dogfish Charters!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable, Authentic Fishing Experience! I can’t say enough good things about this trip. From the moment we stepped on the boat, the captain went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and prepared. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also passionate, patient, and genuinely fun to be around. The entire experience felt so real and unfiltered—no tourist traps, no gimmicks—just honest, hands-on fishing with a local who truly knows the waters. We learned so much, caught some great fish, and made memories that will stick with us for a lifetime. If you’re looking for a captain who’s the real deal and a fishing trip that feels authentic from start to finish, this is it. Highly recommend!I

We had a great time on a Sunday morning with Captain Bryan. Caught redfish, flounder and even a couple of stingrays! I’d highly recommend this trip and wouldn’t hesitate to do it again the next time we’re in the Charleston area!

Capt Bryan was a perfect host for our trip. He was really great with my 2 boys, (13) and (10), in helping them and interacting with them. We had a tough day of fishing but tried a few different type of spots trying to tease them out. Highlight was fighting and bringing in a shark. Boys enjoyed the fight. Capt Bryan was really engaging and great sense of humor. Fun day and would do it again!!

Last minute adventure. It was fun for everyone especially since one of the guests had never seen the beach and always wanted to go on a chartered fishing trip.
