What a great day on the water, couldn't ask for more action! Summer fishing in Hilton Head Island SC is always a treat, and this trip with I Love Fishing Charters was no exception.

I Love Fishing Charters always prioritizes safety while maximizing our time on the water. Once the stage was set, we got down to business with some serious inshore action. We mixed it up between surf fishing and kayak fishing, giving everyone a chance to experience different techniques. The variety paid off big time. We landed a nice mix of species, including Redfish, Black Drum, Southern Flounder, and even some Pigfish. The highlight reel included a 24-inch Black Drum that put up a great fight, a 15-inch Redfish that showed some real spunk, and a impressive 25-inch Southern Flounder that was the catch of the day. The crew worked their rods like pros, and it was a blast watching them reel in these beauties. Hilton Head's waters never disappoint when it comes to inshore fishing.

Redfish and Drum: Summer Inshore Action on Hilton Head Island
Hot bite and happy crew! Summer fishing on Hilton Head Island was in full swing as I took Alanna out for a 3-hour trip with I Love Fishing Charters. We launched from C.C. Haigh, Jr. Boat Landing in the afternoon, greeted by partly cloudy skies. The forecast mentioned the possibility of strong storms, but we were ready to make the most of our time on the water. Hilton Head's inshore waters were calling, and we were eager to see what we could catch. I Love Fishing Charters always aims to provide a great experience, no matter the conditions. With our gear rigged and ready, we set out to explore some prime inshore spots. I mixed up our approach, using a combination of bottom fishing, live bait fishing, and casting artificial lures. This variety of techniques paid off as we targeted different species. The highlight of our trip was landing a nice 23-inch Redfish, which put up a great fight. We also managed to boat a 15-inch Black Drum, adding some diversity to our catch. Pinfish were biting as well, keeping things interesting between the bigger catches. We wrapped up the trip with smiles all around, having experienced some solid inshore action.
