Growing up in Charleston, Captain Nicholas Winch was lucky enough to be able to fish these beautiful waters just about every day. Having fished since he could walk, there was never any doubt about the importance of fishing in his life. His favorite thing about fishing is the sheer excitement of reeling in the big fish that's almost palpable.

    Hard Fighthing Big Redfish

    4 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM)4 adults

    We had an absolutely incredible time on the water with Captain Nicholas Winch! Fishing out of the Isle of Palms Marina, he expertly navigated the Charleston waters and got us on the fish right away. Everyone in our group managed to reel in some massive bull Redfish. What really stood out was how nice, patient, and hands-on the Captain was. He took the time to help everyone—from the experienced anglers to the beginners—and made sure everyone on the trip had a blast fighting these big fish.If you're looking for a top-notch, family-friendly charter that guarantees a great time and memorable catches, I highly recommend booking with Captain Nicholas!

    Awesome!

    4 Hour Trip - Inshore (PM)2 adults

    Nick W. was very knowledgeable and put us on fish immediately. He worked with us in baiting hooks, casting, and even assisting in the initial catch process of fish. He was patient with our novice fishers as well as operated his boat with percission and safety! 5 Stars completely and would recommend over and over again.

Fall is the best time for sight fishing and fly fishing. The waters are clear and the Redfish are abundant. You might still hook into Tarpon, too. Offshore, the big game fish season rages on.

The weather is warm and the fish and feeding hard. The inshore bite is still very good and the jetties bite is getting better and better each day. Menhaden are here which means the big bull reds are THICK in the harbor and at the jetties.
