trip description for Dusk Till Dawn Trip - 26' Mako in North Charleston

Launch aboard Captain TJ's fully decked out 26' Center Console for a dusk-til-dawn fishing experience out of Charleston SC. Captain TJ will put all of his knowledge of fish habits, sea trends, and weather patterns toward getting you on these reef fish safely and in style! On this 12-hour trip, Captain TJ will keep you within 90 miles of the Charleston coast where you'll be going after some Amberjack, Blackfin Tuna, Cobia, Gag Grouper, King Mackerel, Mahi Mahi, Vermillion Snapper, and Wahoo. You'll mainly be bottom fishing or trolling on this trip. Whether you want to actively fish with rod-in-hand or lounge until a reel starts screaming, just let Captain TJ know and he'll get you set up with the best method and provide some expert instruction to make sure you get one on your line! Trolling trips are great because the boat and the knowledge of your captain do the "boring" part for you. Captain TJ will drop the throttle down to a couple knots and start surveying the horizon for birds and grass lines. The grass lines can provide structure for pelagics to congregate around and birds are usually an indicator of bait on the surface! Wahoo, King Mackerel, and Mahi Mahi, are just a couple of the potential species you could catch while you're out there, and there are plenty more species the productive waters of the Atlantic can offer up! When you go bottom fishing you'll hit the reefs, wrecks, and deepwater structures for some delicious table fare that puts up a fight! On these trips, you will be using heavy tackle rods and weighted live bait or jig hooks that you'll drop down into the murky depths of the Atlantic. You can expect to hook into a variety of Snapper and Grouper species like Red Snapper, Lane Snapper, Vermillion Snapper, Red Grouper and Gag Grouper, but you never know what the murky depths of the Atlantic will produce! Fishing the reefs you can also catch an occasional Amberjack, and Cobia just to name a few, and there are plenty more species the productive waters of the Atlantic can offer up! The boat you'll be fishing from is a 26-foot Mako 264. A true battle wagon designed for hardcore offshore fishing. She's equipped with twin 200 HP Suzuki engines, outriggers, VHF radio, Garmin radar, GPS, sonar satellite radio, bathroom, live wells, fishing boxes, sink, and top-of-the-line fishing equipment. Beyond superior service and a stylish ride, Captain TJ also provides the best rods, reels, tackle, bait, and fishing licenses you could possibly need for a successful day out on the water. Thus, all you need to bring is your favorite lunch, snack, and drink, your sun protection, maybe a towel, and your camera! Otherwise, Captain TJ will take care of the rest to make the most of your Charleston offshore adventure! Read More

Beyond superior service and a stylish ride, Captain TJ also provides the best rods, reels, tackle, bait, and fishing licenses you could possibly need for a successful day out on the water.

The most common fishing techniques in Hilton Head are bottom fishing, light tackle fishing, and live bait fishing but artificial lure fishing and heavy tackle fishing are popular as well.

Is booking a fishing guide worth the money?

Hiring a guide provides a number of benefits and many choose to book a fishing guide for a combination of experience, local knowledge, convenience, and cost-effectiveness.

Working with experienced fishing guides who know the best local spots and techniques can dramatically increase your odds of a great day. Having someone who is on the water every day and knows the area like the back of their hand is going to give you the best chances of success.

Booking a guide is also more cost effective, especially if you only get out a handful of times per year. When you consider all of the costs you would incur on your own such as the price of a boat, maintenance, insurance, gas, high-quality gear and tackle, repairs, and more, you’ll find that DIY is sometimes not worth the expense.

Even if you’ve got a great setup already in your home waters, booking a guide also provides a great opportunity to experience new techniques, new locations, or even a chance at a new target species to knock off the bucket list.

Hilton Head Fishing Charters Overview

Hilton Head Island is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a variety of activities such as golfing, beach-going, and fishing. Hilton Head fishing charters provide access to a diverse range of fish species, with each trip tailored to the group's age, experience, and interests. The most popular options include inshore, reef, deep sea, and shark fishing charters.

Inshore fishing charters are ideal for families and beginners, as they stay in the shallows and close to land. The fishing grounds are easily accessible, providing plenty of action even on half-day trips. Redfish, Seatrout, and Flounder are the most commonly caught species, but Tarpon can also be found in the shallows.

Reef fishing charters are perfect for those looking to catch big, tasty fish. These trips typically last 6-8 hours and are suitable for novices and older children. Red Snapper is the main prize, but Grouper, Triggerfish, Cobia, and Amberjack can also be caught.

Deep sea fishing charters are all-day adventures for experienced anglers, with trips lasting up to 12 hours. Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Sailfish, Sharks, and Marlin can be found in the remote waters of the Gulf Stream. Huge Snapper, Grouper, and Seabass can also be caught by deep dropping.

Shark fishing charters are a local specialty, with trips lasting only 2-3 hours and designed for catch-and-release. Over 50 Shark species can be found around Hilton Head Island, with Bonnetheads and Blacktips being suitable for kids and Bulls and Tiger Sharks for pros.

Hilton Head fishing charters are led by experienced captains who know the best fishing spots. With a variety of fish species to target, these charters offer the perfect fishing trip for any group.

Hilton Head Inshore Fishing

The inshore fishing around Hilton Head is some of the best in the entire region. If cruising skinny intertidal waters chasing Redfish is your idea of a good day of fishing, you've come to the right place. Beginning in the fall and continuing through the winter, massive bull Redfish move into shallow waters to feed. In the warmer months they can be found in deeper inshore basins and nearshore structure. Hilton Head shark fishing is also red-hot in the summer months.

When fishing for Redfish in Hilton Head, you're always in line to catch Sheepshead, Speckled Trout, or Bluefish on fishing charters from Hilton Head Island. In the summer, migrating Tarpon make their way into the bays and backwaters around Hilton Head in pursuit of schooling baitfish. Hooking up to "The Silver King" is an unforgettable experience, and people come from far and wide for their shot at these prehistoric creatures.

Hilton Head South Carolina Deep Sea and Offshore Fishing

While Hilton Head is generally considered an inshore fishing destination, the offshore and deep sea fishing is also excellent. There are countless artificial reefs and shipwrecks accessible by a short boat ride. Additionally, legendary deep water locations like the R7 and R8 Navy platforms about 50 miles off Hilton Head Island's coast.

For the charters that run closer to shore, trolling or bottom fishing around sea floor structure produces Grouper and Snapper species, as well as Cobia and Kingfish (King Mackerel). Heading further out to sea will bring Pelagic beasts like Wahoo, Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, and billfish species like Black Marlin from Hilton Head.

    I went on a 6 hour inshore/shark fishing trip with my 16 year old son and we both had a blast! We've done a lot of offshore fishing before but never inshore. Our boat Captain Walker knew exactly where to find the fish and was an all around just a great guy. We're considering booking another short shark fishing trip before we leave. Can't recommend these guys enough! We drive down here often to visit family and we're using Matt and Walker from now on. Highly recommend!
