Does Folly River have good fishing?

Folly River, located near Charleston, South Carolina, is a favored spot for fishing due to its diverse aquatic environment. The river meanders through a mix of saltwater marshes and tidal creeks, creating a rich habitat for various fish species. Anglers can expect to find a range of inshore species, such as redfish, spotted sea trout, and flounder, making it an appealing destination for both casual and dedicated fishermen.

One of the key attractions of Folly River is its accessibility and variety of fishing opportunities. The river's relatively shallow waters and numerous oyster beds offer excellent conditions for fishing. The area's scenic beauty adds to the experience, providing a pleasant backdrop for a day on the water. Additionally, the presence of several public access points and nearby marinas makes it convenient for anglers to launch boats and explore different fishing areas.

However, fishing conditions in Folly River can be influenced by tidal changes and weather patterns. The river's tidal nature means that fishing success can vary depending on the time of day and the stage of the tide. It's advisable for anglers to check local tide charts and weather forecasts to plan their trips effectively. Despite these variables, Folly River remains a popular choice for its productive fishing grounds and the opportunity to enjoy a peaceful day in a picturesque setting.

    My second trip with Carlo, and another fantastic time! I highly recommend Carlo for Charleston fishing, he knows his way around!

    This was the highlight of our trip to Charleston! Family of four with a 16 year old daughter and 13 year old son who both love to fish. We booked a 3 hour morning excursion. Carlo communicated with me thru the days leading up to make sure we knew what to bring, where to park, restroom situation, etc. He was all ready for us and we had the BEST trip! He has a great boat, awesome gear, was ready with bait for us, taught us how to cast (and did it for us if we needed a precision cast!), and is an all-around great guy to fish with! He has such great stories, which made the morning so fun and interesting. We all caught several different types of fish, we all caught one stingray (so cool!) and even a blue crab trying to rip off shrimp bait! The experience was worth every penny and my only regret was not booking Carlo for a longer fishing trip. Really, if you think you want to take a fishing charter, book Carlo and you will NOT be disappointed! 12/10 stars Thanks again, Carlo!!

    Really excellent time with Carlo! He knows the spots to catch fish and tailors the trip to what you want it to be. Great boat and all the help fishing you want. Highly recommended and I'm already planning another trip with him.

    Carlo is the man. Great communication as we approached our trip as weather was a factor. Made it easy for a bunch of us who had limited fishing experience. Would book with him again in a heartbeat.
