The weather was great, a little windy but the temperature was perfect. Mount Pleasant and Shem's Creek are great place to visit!
James Mugler
Listen to your Captain on tide levels and the best time to fish. We did not know about tides before the trip, but it all worked out!
Nicole Waddell
Pay attention to the weather forecast…it makes a difference in your experience…the captain can’t control the weather!!
Scott Wiggleton
The inshore fishing experience was great! We did out in the main channel and back in the marsh! It was a great experience! Highly recommend Captain Johnson!
Nathan Cummings
Perfect for the most experienced angler as well as someone who has never cast a rod. We asked for a shark experience, and we got it! Lots of sharks and lots of fun.

I cant, we fished out of Johns Island. I wanted to fish out of Mt. Pleasant, but the captain said he had his boat at Johns Island Yacth club
Jim Root
It’s all about the experience! In addition to the fishing, lots of dolphins, a Bald Eagle, two Osprey on a nest, Loons, Terns and more!
Charles Brown
Bring a light jacket for early spring mornings and listen to your captain, this person knows his stuff.
Suzanne Keegan
Great area, just iffy in March. Captain said they caught 20 the day before but we got 3. It was cold & windy
Richard Michaux
Make sure you bring appropriate attire. The weather took us off guard and we were pretty cold out there.
Ryan Martin
Lots of options when it comes to areas to target in the inshore fisheries. Always something to bend your rod no matter what time of year
Danae Long
Make sure you wear shoes that can get wet. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat - you will be in the sun.
Jennifer Callahan
Captain Joe was very knowledgeable. He also told us where to go to get our fish cleaned and cooked. It was amazing.

Fishing here in august is very dependent on water temperatures and tides, be mindful of the dates before planning a charter!

Lots of fun. Caught a Cobia and a stingray. Catching lots of fish in the heat of July could be hard and day to day.
Brady Metz
Fish early or late. It gets hot if there isn’t a breeze or cloud cover. Spring and fall appear to be peak for most fish in backwaters of the river systems.

Go to a local bait shop and interact with the locals they’ll give you the tips you need to have a great experience.

We always enjoy our trips to Mt Pleasant. This was our first charter and we have been missing out all this time.

The morning trip was great, it was perfect weather early in the day. Wear good water shoes because our feet got wet but you want to make sure you have secure footwear while reeling in the fish.

Our fishing experience had nothing to do with the month. It was the Capt. in his unwillingness to be productive he was lazy and hung over.

It's still early in the season, be patient with your captain and enjoy what you get and the experience, and have fun.

For the first time angler, I do recommend going with a fishing charter in order to lessen the likelyhood of having a disappointment.

I would recommend inshore half day. Contact Capt. Jeremy for recommendation on which time would be best. He is dedicated to you catching fish.

Ask locals when a good time to go is...the moon and tides have a lot to do with how good the fishing is
Christina Calott
Take sunscreen, bug spray and a good attitude and you are guaranteed to have a blast
Andrew Helsinger
Pay attention to the weather and dress appropriately. Contact the Captain for any assistance.
Brantley Alewine
Give Captain Kaleb a call. You will not regret booking a trip fishing with him.
Andrea Jackson
I recommend that if you are considering it; JUST BOOK IT! You will not be disappointed!

Listen to your captain if you want to catch the fish. It’s called fishing, not catching!
