Inshore in the charleston area the redfishing has been incredible. This month you can expect to catch reds and seatrout. The good quality sized sea trout should show up by the end of October. Along the beaches the big bull redfish should be making their presence known in big numbers...

Along the beaches the big bull redfish should be making their presence known in big numbers
s the water Temps begin to cool down. But currently if you want to go fishing, the Inshore bite has been great, with lots of big redfish being caught Inshore! If you would like to fish in Charleston or the surrounding book your trip with me and will get into ’em

September is the month to remember. Sheepshead, flounder, and trout are gonna be looking to feed now that water temp is slowly dropping. Always look for moving water and depth with structure around. I personally go during the low tide and look for areas that has both and come back...

September is the month to remember. Sheepshead, flounder, and trout are gonna be looking to feed now that water temp is slowly dropping. Always look for moving water and depth with structure around. I personally go during the low tide and look for areas that has both and come back during the high tide and set up for the stopping tide. Usually i do the best the first three hours of the dropping tide. I've found that smaller baits do well such as mud minnows and finger mullet. September usually has slot if rain so
if the water looks cloudy from sunshine the run off use finger mullet. Finger mullet can be seen easier than mud minnows, they are white and not dark like the mud minnows. With using shrimp, one also noticed if you use large shrimp that they too can be seen easier and it can keep the trash fish away due to the size but not always. Popping corks will be starting their way back into my tackle box as well. Along with artificial baits such as the Vudu shrimp. Con't forget your Pro Cure and please don't over do the amount needed. It can and will ruin not only the color but also the dexterity of the bait.

    Adam was early and ready to go at 6:30am. We had a tough day with clouds and wind but made the most of it. He was very helpful with providing tips and tricks to improve my casting in a respectful way. He taught me a lot about the redfish habitat and their mannerisms. Coming from Canada, I had never salt water fly fished before, but Adam was welcoming and showed me the ropes. Would definitely gonaga

    Adam was great. This was my first time fly fishing for reds. He did a wonderful job coaching me through the trip. His boat and gear are top notch. Definitely going to return.
