Great Action on A 4 hour Moring Charter.Approx 60 degrees air temp. 52 water temp. Caught the last two hours of falling tide and the first two hour of incoming tide. Bait used Live mud minnows and live shrimp. Landing 11 Slot Reds and 4 Slot Trout. Solid morning !!
Started out in 32 degree temperature throwing the cast net for live shrimp. very few csught.Decided to sbort the mission after no shrimp and couldnt feel my hands (5:00 this mirning)picked up my minow trap and met my clients at 8:30we had incoming tide to work with but still very cold. Clients were troopers though and hit about 4 spots before we started landing some nice ones. shortly after the bite turned off sgain. Not to bad for a challenging morning . Just need patience and persistance .Tight lines 💯🎣🤘🏼
Started as a very slow bite but ramped up for these first time anglers :)mudd minnows were the preferred bait ! low tide
Fresh year, fresh adventures! Embarking on the year with a thrilling Charleston Fishing Charter made the day truly exceptional. Our luck was evident as we successfully hooked some coveted catches during our inshore fishing expedition. The enchantment of Mahi-Mahi unfolded, showcasing its magic right at the beginning of January!

We celebrated his 40th birthday by taking him out, and we all had an incredible time catching an abundance of fish. Captain Stephen skillfully navigated to the perfect spots, providing fresh bait and even assisting my wife with her casting. We highly recommend Captain Stephen; our day couldn't have been better, as we were occupied throughout, consistently catching fish.

Steve was awesome!!! I had an absolutely fantastic time on this fishing charter. From start to finish, Steve was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly friendly. Steve made sure everyone felt welcome and comfortable, regardless of experience level. The boat was clean, well-equipped, and spacious, with everything we needed for a great day on the water. The captain clearly knew the best spots — we were catching fish in no time! Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a first-timer, this charter delivers an unforgettable trip. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be back for another adventure!

Had a great day on the water with Captain Steve today. My wife and I came down to Charleston for a long weekend and took a chance based on all of his positive reviews. He quickly put us on fish and gave me a great experience with a large Red Fish. He is very knowledgeable and makes sure you have a great time. I would highly recommend him.

Captain Steve was an amazing host to me and my mom. He is very knowledgeable, polite, and fun! He jumped right in to help my mom on and off the boat, making her feel very safe. He brought us to his favorite fishing spots and made us feel like pros, which we are not! Weather you’re looking for fishing or cruising the harbor, Capt. Steve is your guy.
