Fishing has been great to kick off the year. The reds are schooled up inshore and the sheepshead have began to move out to the nearshore reefs. Offshore has never slowed down for bottom fishing. Black Sea bass are thick.

With the temps dropping and the water clearing up, the redfish have schooled up really nice and the trout are on fire. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and happy new year!

Blackfin tuna have been thick out at the ledge. Spinning rods is my go-to tackle in targeting them with live bait. Wahoo have been hit or miss.

Fall fishing has been absolutely incredible in the low country and its just getting better. The trout and feeding good and its increasing as the water temps keep dropping. Live shrimp is the best bait of choice under a popping cork. Fish are being reeled in left and right! Book your trip today before you miss the hot bite!

The fall inshore fishing is really heating up!The bull reds are staging at the inlets and jetties for their annual spawn and will readily take live or fresh cut mullet. The flats fishing has been great and will only get better as the mullet and shrimp begin to leave with the cooling water. The bait of choice has been live finger mullet. The speckled trout bite has been good on live shrimp and artificials. Look for the trout to really bunch up through November and December. The best fishing of the year is the next couple of months. Get out...

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 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...

    We had a great time fishing with Adrian. He knew some great spots to fish and he was very patient with us novices. He has a great boat and gear and there were no flaws at all. We will all look forward to going out with him again!

    Trip: Inshore Light Fishing Trip

  • ★★★★★
    Amazing Shark Fishing Experience! We had an absolutely incredible experience with Captain Experiences, and we cannot say enough good things about Captain Chris and Kendra! We were originally booked with a different guide the day before our trip, but unfortunately, the guide was a no-show. Captain Experiences immediately stepped in to make the situation right. Kendra personally contacted us, worked quickly to get everything resolved, and booked us with Captain Chris for the following day. They handled the situation professionally and made sure our family still had the experience we had been looking forward to. And what an experience it was! We had a four-hour shark fishing charter with four kids and two adults, and every single one of us caught sharks! Captain Chris was absolutely fantastic with the kids. He was patient, kind, incredibly knowledgeable, and so personable. He kept everyone engaged throughout the entire trip and shared information about Charleston, local history, fishing, and all kinds of interesting random facts that made the experience even more enjoyable. At one point, we had three fishing poles go off at the same time with a boat full of excited kids—and Captain Chris handled the chaos with complete composure and professionalism. He never once seemed overwhelmed and made sure everyone had a chance to participate and have fun. The kids had an absolute blast, and honestly, so did the adults. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Charleston, and we are so grateful to Captain Chris for making it such a memorable experience. A huge thank-you to Kendra and Captain Experiences for taking care of the initial situation and going above and beyond to make it right, and an even bigger thank-you to Captain Chris for giving our family such an amazing day on the water. We would absolutely book with Captain Chris again the next time we’re in Charleston. If you’re looking for a fun, knowledgeable, patient, and family-friendly captain, we highly recommend him!

    Michael was good, DOUG our captain was amazing! Having a knowledgeable Cpt that knows and says why things are happening and how they are connected to us fishing was great, also helped my nephew win a bet on the Spider-Man pole! Cost me $10 but worth it and kids loved it too! Thanks again Cpt Doug!

    My wife and I had an awesome morning fishing with Carlo! His knowledge of the waters and best spots to target set us up for success.. I would highly recommend booking a charter with him if you’re visiting Charleston and looking for a great Captain to spend time with. I know we can’t wait to come back!

    Scott was great. Very friendly. Weather didn’t cooperate to the fullest, not at all Scott’s fault. Was a great day out in the water. My sons were thrilled to have caught a fish (shark and lady fish).
