Coastal Ga Fishing invites you to join them on the bountiful waters of Savannah, Georgia for a fishing trip of a lifetime. Their dedicated captains and mates run inshore and offshore charters with two goals in mind: safety and success! They are all professionals and enjoy having families, beginners, and experienced anglers on board.

Savannah offers spectacular offshore fishing and when a charter operator is federally permitted, you know your day is going to be awesome. Coastal Ga can take you out to the Gulf Stream, some 60 nautical miles off the coast of Savannah, where huge Amberjack, Cobia, Mahi Mahi, Snapper, Grouper, Sailfish, Tuna, Wahoo, and other big species can be found.

If you are a fan of inshore fishing, Coast Ga Fishing can take care of your needs. They offer full day trips where Trout, Redfish, Flounder, Sheepshead, and other shallow water species spend their days. You can fish using live bait including Shrimp, Fiddler Crabs, Mud Minnows, and artificial baits such as Gulp Minnows and jigs.

Fishing is done aboard a 21’ Contender Saltwater fishing boat originally built in 2011 with a capacity for five guests. Powered by twin 250 HP Yamaha engines, the Contender is a safe and fast vessel. It features a GPS and a fishfinder that will help you locate the best fishing spots, a fighting chair to keep you aboard when fighting the big fish, and a wireless trolling motor to allow for quiet trolling in the shallow waters.

Coastal Ga Fishing provides rods, reels, tackle, lures, live baits, and a fish processing service. The first mate will help you reel in your catch and explain anything you need to know about the gear and techniques. They will also have snacks and drinks on board for refreshment, and you are welcome to bring a camera to capture the most amazing and successful moments of your trip!

Captain departs from several marinas in the area. Contact the Captain to see which one would work best for you.

3/4 Day Trip – Inshore (3 max)

Unexpected Gem

VERIFIED

I was a little worried that I was not being booked with Captain Jay. I received a message from him saying that my guide was Captain Tucker. I didn’t know what to expect… I showed up with a friend who only ever caught a small blue gill, nothing else. Captain Tucker set him up on an abundant pocket and my buddy set a PR and caught the first fish on the first cast! We didn’t go during the peak of any one season, but I was thoroughly entertained and caught the fish of a lifetime, a beautiful Creville Jack. I never thought we would catch anything like this on an inland trip, but Captain Tucker had the right rig and we were in the right place at the right time. While we didn’t fill the boat, we did catch a bunch of fish. Stop thinking about it and just book. This team is amazing. I’ll be referring them to all my friends.

Last min trip with Capt Tucker

VERIFIED

So pleased with Capt Jay and him accepting our last min booking! We had a charter capt cancel 2 trips on us 2 days in a row and after thinking we probably didn’t stand much hope Capt Jay saved the day and was able to send us out with Capt Tucker. CANT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT HIM! Tucker worked so hard to put us on the fish. He was a great time and such a good guy! We caught a variety of fish and his filet skills are better than Gordon Ramsey! He is a young Captain who is skilled well beyond his years. He works for every dime and fish or no fish you are bound to have a damn good time! We will never use anyone else! THANK YOU JAY AND TUCKER!
