Update 6/12 fished south today and caught a sail right off in about 200 ft. Pushed in to the ledge and fought scattered grass. Could not keep the lines clean Managed 3 dolphin and pulled the hook on a large dolphin We have openings next week and weekend fishing has been good for the most part but the scattered weed put a damper on catching.

We had a fun family outing today, spent 2.5hrs in the harbor fishing for bull reddrum using fresh caught menhaden. Our eldest son only has use of one arm so forgive his way of holding the bull, but he got him to the boat so had to get a photo!

Lots of slow-pitch jigging recently! Big sea bass are all over and limiting out on them nearshore has been simple.

    Carlo was an amazing guide. He worked his tail off keeping us on fish . Super knowledgeable about fishing and the history of Charleston. I will definitely be back to fish with him.

    Carlo was a great guide! Wouldn’t have asked for anything better. He put us on the best spots to catch and had a great sense of humor. We will be booking Carlo again!

    Trip: Besting Charleston's Beasts

  • ★★★★★
    We very much were looking forward to our trip. It was a bummer we did not catch anything at all (with the exception of a small bass). We did try all of the methods to catch them, but it just didn’t happen. We thought our guide did a good job. Except his playlist could have been more geared towards a family, not the profanity that he had on. Not a huge deal to us but you should cater towards your audience. Also the boat we were told we’d be on was suppose to have a bathroom, which we could have used.

    Trip: 4 Hr Bull Redfish And Shark Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Carlo was extremely flexible with our family, even before pickup. We had an amazing day and he was patient and helpful with our beginner level experience. You can tell he takes pride in his work and is incredibly knowledgeable. We had a blast, stopped at amazing spots, learned and ton and best of all, we caught a TON of fish including some large redfish. His first mate was gracious and kind to our daughter and she had so much fun! Highly recommend!
