Fishing reports straight from our guides in Folly Beach
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...

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...
if the water looks cloudy...
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.

Carlo was terrific! My wife and I enjoyed a really fun morning fishing excursion outside of Charleston with him. The ride was comfortable, the company was fabulous, and we caught a lot of fish. Carlo’s knowledge of the area, his history lessons on Charleston, and his positive attitude were exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend him for your next trip!

We had a great trip. No shortage of fish to say the least. Just an all around great experience.

Carlo is awesome. That’s all that needs to be said, but I will provide a little more. Carlos is very friendly, fun to talk to, knows where to catch fish all day, and keeps everything really clean and respectful. He’s also a really good time if you have a great sense of humor. My expectations were met completely on this last trip. The next time I am in South Carolina I plan to fish with Carlo again.

Tim was great. The fishing conditions were tough but he pulled out all the stops to ensure we still landed a few. Very knowledgeable and great company on the boat.

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!

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!
