Trip Summary

Weather took a bit longer than expected to push out, so after a choppy ride out, we posted up at the Charleston 60 Reef and IMMEDIATELY got onto the grouper. 2 Gags and a Juvenile Snowy Group were the highlight of the morning. As afternoon progressed the seas calmed down, we switched locations, and our client Arthur (who runs an Orphanage in Honduras) enjoyed pulling up Porgy's and mentioned his family loves to eat them at get togethers. We also caught a monster toadfish, that I feel may have won Toadfish' competition taking place next weekend. After getting our fill there, we switched to drift fishing and came upon a 12 ft Tiger shark with a school of Cobia following. Our Client Devin sight cast to them, and we got to watch as the cobia chased and SMASHED our artificial lure. Watching a 40 inch fish gulp your lure 15 ft away from the boat is a memory you will not soon forget! Cobia have been THICK at the charleston 60 and we counted over 40 cobia following a Tiger shark around on our trip on 8/16. Another great day out with Loaded Dice Charters.
