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

The world is your oyster when you book this 10 Hour excursion with Captain Linus. After you meet up with Captain Linus at the dock, you guys can go over your game plan for the day. Whether you and your captain decide to go offshore, stay in nearshore, or hit the reefs will depend on the weather conditions, the tides, and of course your personal preference. You can even talk with your Captain about hitting multiple areas for a trolling/bottom fishing combo. Captain Linus will provide expert advice on what will be fishing the best that day so listen carefully and heed his advice when deciding how you'd like to spend your day.

What is blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant all about?

Blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant offers anglers an exciting opportunity to target one of the most prized and sought-after species in the Atlantic Ocean. These sleek and powerful fish, known for their speed and acrobatic leaps, are commonly found in offshore waters along the South Carolina coast. Blackfin tuna are voracious predators that feed on a variety of prey, including small fish, squid, and crustaceans, making them a challenging and rewarding catch for anglers of all skill levels.

To target blackfin tuna in Mount Pleasant, anglers often use specialized techniques and equipment tailored to these fast-moving pelagic predators. One effective method is trolling, where anglers deploy a spread of lures and baits behind the boat to mimic the movement of schooling baitfish. Blackfin tuna are known to patrol the Gulf Stream and other productive fishing grounds in search of prey, making trolling an effective way to cover a wide area and entice strikes.

Another popular technique for blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant is live bait fishing. Anglers use small baitfish such as pilchards, sardines, or herring rigged on light tackle to entice strikes from blackfin tuna. Live bait fishing requires patience and precision, as anglers must present the bait in a natural and enticing manner to lure in these fast-moving predators. Additionally, vertical jigging with heavy jigs can be effective for targeting blackfin tuna at various depths, particularly around offshore reefs, wrecks, and other structure where these fish are known to congregate. With its rich biodiversity and abundance of fishing opportunities, Mount Pleasant promises anglers an unforgettable adventure pursuing these prized pelagic giants along the South Carolina coast.

What are the most popular months to fish for blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant?

In Mount Pleasant, the seasons for blackfin tuna fishing can vary slightly throughout the year, but anglers typically find the best opportunities during the warmer months. Spring and early summer are often considered prime seasons for blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant. During this time, the waters off the coast of South Carolina begin to warm up, attracting schools of baitfish and drawing blackfin tuna closer to shore. Anglers can capitalize on this by venturing offshore to target blackfin tuna in areas where they are known to congregate, such as the Gulf Stream and offshore reefs.

Late summer and early fall also present favorable conditions for blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant. As the temperatures continue to rise, blackfin tuna remain active in the area's offshore waters, providing anglers with continued opportunities for successful encounters. During these seasons, blackfin tuna can be found feeding aggressively around offshore structures, making them more accessible to anglers using trolling, live bait fishing, or vertical jigging techniques.

While blackfin tuna can be caught year-round in Mount Pleasant, anglers may find that their abundance and activity levels vary depending on the season. Understanding the seasonal movements and behaviors of blackfin tuna is key to planning successful fishing trips and maximizing the chances of hooking into these prized pelagic predators. With its rich biodiversity and abundance of fishing opportunities, Mount Pleasant offers anglers an exciting and rewarding experience when targeting blackfin tuna along the South Carolina coast.

What techniques are popular for catching blackfin tuna in Mount Pleasant?

Blackfin tuna fishing in Mount Pleasant requires anglers to employ specialized techniques tailored to the fast-moving nature of these pelagic predators. One effective method is trolling, where anglers deploy a spread of lures and baits behind the boat to mimic the movement of schooling baitfish. Anglers often use diving plugs, skirted lures, or rigged ballyhoo to entice strikes from blackfin tuna. Trolling allows anglers to cover a wide area of water and search for actively feeding fish, particularly around offshore structures and along current edges.

Live bait fishing is another popular technique for targeting blackfin tuna in Mount Pleasant. Anglers use small baitfish such as pilchards, sardines, or herring rigged on light tackle to entice strikes from blackfin tuna. Live bait fishing requires finesse and patience, as anglers must present the bait in a natural and enticing manner to lure in these wary predators. Drifting or slow trolling with live bait can be effective for targeting blackfin tuna, particularly when fish are holding in deeper water or are feeding near the surface.

Additionally, vertical jigging with heavy jigs can be a productive technique for targeting blackfin tuna in Mount Pleasant. Anglers drop the jig down to various depths and use a rhythmic jigging motion to mimic the movement of injured baitfish. Vertical jigging allows anglers to target blackfin tuna holding around offshore reefs, wrecks, and other structure where these fish are known to congregate. By varying the speed and motion of the jigging action, anglers can trigger aggressive strikes from blackfin tuna and enjoy thrilling battles on the open water.

What other species are popular in Mount Pleasant?

In addition to targeting blackfin tuna, Mount Pleasant offers anglers a diverse range of other species to pursue, ensuring an exciting and varied fishing experience. One notable species is the mahi-mahi, also known as dolphin fish or dorado, which inhabits offshore waters around structures such as weed lines, floating debris, and offshore reefs. Mahi-mahi are known for their vibrant colors, acrobatic leaps, and delicious flesh, making them a prized catch among anglers. Anglers often target mahi-mahi using trolling techniques with a variety of lures and baits, including rigged ballyhoo, squid, or artificial lures.

Another sought-after species in Mount Pleasant is the wahoo, a fast and powerful pelagic predator found in offshore waters along the South Carolina coast. Wahoo are known for their blistering runs and aggressive strikes, making them a thrilling catch for anglers. These fish are commonly found near offshore reefs, wrecks, and drop-offs, where they feed on smaller fish and pelagic prey. Anglers targeting wahoo often use high-speed trolling techniques with diving plugs, skirted baits, or lures designed to mimic the movement of fleeing baitfish.

Furthermore, anglers in Mount Pleasant can target a variety of bottom-dwelling species, including grouper, snapper, and amberjack, among others. Venturing offshore to reefs, wrecks, and artificial structures provides anglers with opportunities to encounter these hard-fighting and delicious species using techniques such as bottom fishing, jigging, and live bait fishing. With its rich biodiversity and abundance of fishing opportunities, Mount Pleasant promises anglers an unforgettable fishing adventure along the South Carolina coast.

    Adrian was just awesome! He kept us up to date on weather and was flexible with date/time to make sure we went out at the best time. He got there early to make sure we were all set with plenty of bait and extra rods and reels ready to go. He even had an extra hat and sunglasses for our 16 yo who forgot his. He knew the best fishing spots and locations at each spot. He could cast within inches of his intended target, was very knowledgeable about the fish, and helped us release the sting ray and gar we accidentally caught. Very pleasant, hard working and very experienced! You can’t go wrong with Adrian!

    We had an incredible day fishing with Captain Adrian! He was awesome lining up the best time of day to fish ahead of time thru great communication. While we didn't expect to catch a bunch since we were early in the season, we caught a BUNCH of fish - completely lost count it was such a good day - all catch and release. Adrian did a great job keeping our lines in the water from baiting hooks to fixing a few snags to getting fish off the hooks. Adrian was awesome! Highly recommend!! What a great day...
