There is nothing like Folly Beach fishing in May! By this time of year our Deep Sea and Inshore fishing charters are catching many different species of sportfish. We are able to target Bull Redfish, Sharks, Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, Black Drum and more on a daily basis. The water temperature has been hovering around 68 degrees for awhile now, so plenty of species have moved in from offshore into our coastal waters. We have been fishing in the creeks a little less and spending more time fishing the grasslines and Jetties. Warm water and plenty of natural bait has all our local game fish feeding on a more consistent basis. This is a great time of year for all kinds of fisherman. Our fishing charters range from 2.5 hr trips to 6 hour trips and start at $300. We are happy to host everyone from beginners of any age to seasoned anglers, we will be able to put together a great experience for you. I suggest you make your reservations as early as possible. The schedule is filling up! Book online now!

Folly Beach fishing charters is happy to report good fishing! Typically as the month goes on we will have more sunny days and less wind. With these variables becoming less of an issue the water warms and fishing will become more consistent. Inshore we are catching Speckled Trout, Redfish, Black Drum and Flounder on live shrimp, minnows and cut bait. If you favor fishing with artificials the fish are striking jigs equally as well. I will set our trip time and launch location specifically around the tides that I feel will give you the best chance for a good trip. Please keep in mind when booking that the start times listed are approximate and will likely be slightly different when I confirm back to you regarding your booking. Spring and summer is a very busy time of year so please choose your date and book as soon as you can. I am looking forward to fishing with you!

Charter fishing in Charleston and Folly Beach fishing trips have been great the past few weeks. Deep Sea fishing and inshore fishing has benefited from a very mild winter and warm temperatures. Inshore fishing in Charleston and Folly Beach is a great option this time of year. The waters are typically calm making it a smooth outing for anglers of all ages and skill levels. We typically can fish close to our pickup location so we spend more time fishing rather than driving. Inshore fishing charters have been targeting Redfish, Speckled Trout Black Drum and Flounder as they begin to feed more heavily in our warming waters. We have been casting live minnows and shrimp along grass lines and oyster beds to draw strikes from hungry predators. Deep Sea Fishing charters have been targeting assorted snapper, Wahoo, King Mackerel, Sea Bass and too many other species to mention. Nearshore fishing at the reefs and wrecks just off the beach have been catching Black Drum, Weakfish, Bluefish, Bull Redfish and Sheepshead. When considering your options keep in mind that deep sea fishing trips are more subject to weather conditions both inland and out to sea.

Charter fishing in Folly Beach has been good as we enjoy our mild winter. Deep Sea fishing charters have been producing good size and numbers of King Mackerel, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Redfish, Black Sea Bass and several other species. These fish are aggressively attacking a variety of cut and live baits. Our boats are fishing in 50 to 70 ft of water and focusing on reefs and wrecks while bottom fishing. We have also found a tendency to score larger fish on big artificial lures such as Bucktail jigs and 5 inch Z-man swim baits by trolling and jigging around submerged structure and rock piles. With the absence of prolonged cold fronts so far this year the inshore fishing charters out of Charleston and Folly Beach has been outstanding. We have been targeting large schools of Redfish both in the creeks and on the flats and connecting with them well most of the time. The Redfish have been biting live shrimp, mud minnows and smaller soft plastics made by Z-Man. We have been having good luck fishing everything slowly in water 1 to 10 ft deep. Big schools of Redfish are cruising the flats and can be caught using soft plastics, live shrimp and mud minnows and cut mullet. Many big redfish are being caught and we have had much of the water to ourselves, especially during the week. Keep in mind the fish can be spooky and a quiet approach will help you get more bites. The best thing to do is give them some room and watch how they react to your presentation. If they don’t hit the first bait you throw towards them try another. We recently had to back off our fish a few times and let them rest for 5 or 10 minutes before making another presentation and hooking up. The fish are here and biting and our short cold spells will soon give way to longer warm spells then, before you know it Spring will be here! There are plenty of good dates open but with Spring Break and Summer vacation on everyone’s mind a lot of reservations are coming in. Get you trips booked now to get the dates you want. You can reserve your date and make your reservation online here.

Folly Beach fishing has been great so far this year! Warmer weather has moved back in after a week of cooler temperatures. This means the fish are back to searching for food and we are happy to show them some options! Our inshore fishing charters have been targeting Redfish. This time of year Redfish begin to gather up in schools on the flats and in the shallow creeks. Creeks that work the best are those that give the fish good access to food and shelter from predators and plenty of structure such as docks, oyster beds and downed trees. We have been enjoying good success with live shrimp, cut mullet and small profile artificial baits on light jigs. The Speckled Trout bite has also recovered from the cold snap. We have been catching them on mud minnows and small finesse soft plastic jigs cast around points and creek mouths. Most productive areas seem to be in 8 to 15 ft of water. Look for current, oyster beds and irregular shaped shorelines to give you clues on where the fish may be staging up looking for an easy meal. A slow hopping retrieve has been producing the most strikes by far. Remember to try a variety of depths to locate the sweet spot. Folly Beach Deep Sea fishing charters at the nearshore reefs have been finding Black Sea Bass, Weakfish, Sheepshead, Black Drum and some big Bull Reds! These bruisers have been cruising the surface chasing live baits. We have been able to catch them on top water plugs, metal jigs and soft plastics. Most of these fish are well over 30 inches long and have plenty of room to run when hooked so when you get connected be ready for a long fight! I expect January to provide lots of action this year so get to my online calendar and get your spot saved. I look forward to seeing you on deck soon! As always feel free to text or call **hidden content** for booking information. See you on deck!

Charter Fishing in Folly Beach! December is one of the best months for fishing inshore for Redfish and Speckled Trout. These fish feed heavily in advance of our short winter, and now is the time to boat large numbers of quality fish. We typically focus on fishing for large schools that gather around shallow creeks and river bends, using live shrimp and minnows that are still abundant in our waters. For the angler that likes more of a skill based fishing charter we can target those fish with a variety of lures. We will cast soft plastic swim baits and crank baits. In my opinion nothing is more fun than feeling the fish attack your lure as you are working the bait past them. When you feel the fish inhale your bait a swift hook set will will get you connected and ready to do battle! On Calm days we will venture to our nearshore reefs to fish for Sheepshead and Weakfish. Both these species gather in large numbers to intercept baitfish as begin to head to deeper waters for our short winter. We will also expect to see large Black Drum ranging from 10 to 30 lbs. at those reefs. When those tough fish inhale your bait you need to lean back and lift your rod back to turn their heads away from the rocks or you may lose them to the rocks. As always it’s best to book in advance online but feel free to text or call with questions or to book directly with us. Or weather cancellation policy is more liberal in the winter and late morning start times are more common. I would love to see you on deck this winter so let’s get you out there to enjoy some of the best fishing Folly Beach has to offer!
