What a day with these gentlemen from Canada!! The fish were happy and hungry from the start of the trip. The drag never stopped screaming! The warm spring days and negative low tides cause these redfish to school up in tight areas. They were devouring libe shrimp under corks in 8-16 inches of water! We were actually watching the fish eat our baits. There were numerous double hookups with a few triples thrown in as well! Give us a call asap to get on the schedule! Our boats our booking up fast!

The late spring is a perfect time to get out on the water and target these giant, drag screaming red drum. We caught 4 over 42 inches with some smaller ones in the 30-35 inch range to keep us busy while waiting on these big fish to eat! Give us a call today for your chance at a redfish of a lifetime!

All I can say is WOW!!! What a day. We were able to make it 25-30 miles out to some nearshore ledges and reefs. It was well worth the ride. Grouper, Snapper of different varieties, triggerfish, mackerel and sharks were roaming around, and they were hungry! Frozen squid was the main bait of choice. It would only be on the bottom for seconds before a fish was on the hook. A few sharks took advantage of the easy meal as we were bringing them up which led to a real hard fight! The anglers took home a cooler full of fish to put in the freezer. Give us a call asap to get on the books! GROUPER SEASON OPENS SOON!!! If nearshore is not what you would like to do, the inshore bite is still going off as well!

A cold front brought strong winds and much cooler weather to the area for a couple days. We were still able to get out and find hungry fish that were out of the wind. They are still in their Spring time patterns. We had to bounce around to a few different areas until we found a school of fish that wanted to eat. Once we located them, there were multiple double and triple hookups with fish of all sizes! The redfish are still being caught using live shrimp under corks and on carolina rigs under docks or against mud flats with oyster beds close by. There can be multiple schools of fish in the same area, so be careful when approaching a spot. Try not to spook a school! Big trout are starting to be caught in deeper water cuts and a long deep water grass lines with oysters at the base of them. It is not uncommon to find trout in the 20+ inch range! We typically catch these with live shrimp on slip corks so we can adjust the depth depending on where the fish are staging. Give us a call or message ASAP to get on the books!!!!

The water keeps getting warmer and the fishing keeps getting better! This couple is showing off one of the many double hookups we had that day! The red drum have started to kick into their spring time patterns. We are finding smaller schools of hungry fish ready to take our baits. Shrimp and mud minnows have been the go to for the past few weeks. We will either use a Zman Redfish Eye jig head to put the baits on the bottom or use slip corks to float across the flats. Both methods have proved successful. Mixed in with these fish are nice black drum. They are always a pleasant surprise when you hook into one. Trout and sheepshead have also been around. The trout are primarily around deeper structure in 8-12 ft of water. The bull reds are starting to make an appearance in the harbor and along our jetties. You can catch these drag screaming giants on the bottom with cut bait using a Carolina rig. We suggest a 8/0 circle hook and enough weight on a fish finder rig to keep the bait on the bottom in the current. As we continue into Spring, we only expect the bite to get better! We will be seeing the toothy critters showing up soon as well! Book us today to get out on our beautiful waters and lets catch some fish!!

Cooler mornings have led to warm beautiful afternoons and the fishing is terrific. This trip’s clients wanted to find some big redfish. We did exactly that. With 9 reds over 30 inches and one doozy of a 46 inch bull red in 2 hours, they were wiped out! Early spring has the bulls hanging out at the local jetties and other known areas for bulls to be found. Live bait on the bottom or floated under corks in these areas have been the proven tactic. Be sure to have the correct size tackle to tame these big fish!! Reach out to Charleston Charter Company to get on our books and have your shot at these drag screamin’ monsters!!!
