What anglers said about fishing in Holden Beach

Don’t go fishing in the ocean with expectations of catching a trophy…but you never know! Try everything your guide suggests (they know what they’re doing and WHEN to do it), and enjoy the ride. Maybe don’t watch Jaws the night before like we did.

Water was choppy, we weren’t able to target Spanish and bluefish as expected, but the sharks were so much fun to catch!!

Book a charter boat. Take someone out that has never fished before. It's a great time teaching them how to fish

Be patient. That's key when you're fishing. Also try to understand that some days they bite and some days they don't and that's a part of the game. However we caught a lot of fish when we went and I hope you do too ?

Salty Fishing Charters has a great boat to fish from. Like all fishing, it’s best to go early in the morning. Put on some suntan lotion before you go. A hat and sunglasses are a must. Bring a soft sided small cooler with drinks and a small snack.

Be prepared for small boat motion (someone will get sea sick). Take medication before you go if you have never been on a small boating trip on the ocean. You will be in the sun the whole time. No one cares what you look like protect your self from a sunburn. Surf shirt and big hat. Two water bottles for each person. A 3 foot shark is a tough fight. You will be hungry when you get back.

July is pretty hot here and pop up storms are the norm, so weather might alter your plans, especially if you’re going out on a charter. The fish are there, but just know that all kinds of factors (weather, tides, bait availability, etc.) are going to determine where, when, and how long you’re at a particular spot and what you’re trying to catch.
