Go with the recommendation of your captain based on the tides, but the middle of the day is HOT! My family was ready to head in at noon. I would recommend the morning or evening if the tides agree.

Fishing Jekyll island is a great experience. The only issue with fishing in July is obviously the heat. So as long as you are prepared for the heat and sun, you will be fine.

Talk to the captain and get pointers to prepare for the day. He'll be able to provide all the details you need to have a safe and fun day.

Charter a boat with Captain Shelby. The boat leaves out of Jekyl Marina instead of having to drive over to the mainland near St. Simons

Sure. Easy set up and if yoi have fished before it could be very simple to walk out the room and start catching fish.

Go earlier in the year if you want to get more popular species such as Redfish or Trout.

I would recommend anglers fishing to anyone. They are the only ones I will go with.

Just like any other fishing trip, dress in layers, and wear comfortable clothing.

Check in with Anglers 1 in advance. These guys are really good and will book up quickly.
