Hop aboard with Captain Brent for a fun-filled day of fishing, where you'll create memories that last a lifetime! The day will start early at the boat landing, where you'll get acquainted, then briefly go over some safety instruction and boat familiarization before getting on the water. After loading up and departing from the dock, you'll make your way out through the Charleston Harbor, where you'll see many historic landmarks including the Charleston Battery, Ft. Moultrie, and Ft. Sumter, to name just a few! Pushing out from the harbor, you'll head 10-20 miles into the Atlantic. Feel free to connect via Bluetooth to the onboard JL Audio sound system, queue up your favorite playlist, and settle in for an hour ride out to the fishing grounds. For nearshore trips, we will do some bottom fishing/reef fishing, targeting the likes of Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, Amberjack, King Mackerel, Barracuda, and more! You are welcome to get as involved as you would like, whether you'd rather lounge until the reel starts screaming, or keep your hand on the rod the whole time. Captain Brent can make it happen! Beyond superior service and luxurious amenities, Captain Brent also provides the best rods, reels, tackle, and bait you could possibly need for a successful day out on the water. Bottled water is provided as well as plenty of ice to keep your catch, food, and beverages cold. It is recommended that you bring a cooler to take fish home after the trip is over, but please leave it in your vehicle as the boat has sufficient onboard coolers and fish box storage. All you need to bring onboard is your favorite lunch, snacks, drinks, sun protection (NO SPRAY/AEROSOL SUNSCREEN PLEASE!), a towel, a camera, and good vibes! Otherwise, Captain Brent will take care of the rest to make the most of your Charleston nearshore adventure! Read More

Red snapper fishing in Mount Pleasant offers anglers an exciting opportunity to target one of the most prized and delicious species in the Atlantic Ocean. Red snapper, known for their vibrant coloration, firm flesh, and challenging fight, inhabit the offshore reefs, wrecks, and artificial structures along the South Carolina coast. These bottom-dwelling predators feed on a variety of prey, including fish, crustaceans, and squid, making them a highly sought-after catch among anglers of all skill levels.

To target red snapper in Mount Pleasant, anglers often employ bottom fishing techniques using heavy tackle and large baits such as squid, cut bait, or small fish. These fish are typically found in depths ranging from 60 to 300 feet, where they congregate around structure and rocky bottoms. Anglers may anchor or drift over known reef and wreck sites, presenting their baits near the ocean floor to entice strikes from red snapper.

Red snapper fishing in Mount Pleasant is typically most productive during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when these fish are more active and abundant in the area's offshore waters. However, they can be caught year-round with the right techniques and local knowledge. Anglers must be prepared for challenging battles, as red snapper are known for their strong fighting ability and tendency to seek refuge in underwater structure when hooked. With its rich biodiversity and abundance of fishing opportunities, Mount Pleasant promises anglers an unforgettable adventure pursuing these prized bottom-dwelling predators along the South Carolina coast.

What are the most popular months to fish for red snapperfishing in Mount Pleasant?

In Mount Pleasant, red snapper seasons provide anglers with specific periods of the year to target these prized bottom-dwelling fish. The peak seasons for red snapper fishing typically coincide with the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when these fish are more active and abundant in the offshore waters. During this time, red snapper migrate closer to the coast and inhabit the reefs, wrecks, and artificial structures found in the area.

Late spring and early summer are particularly productive seasons for red snapper fishing in Mount Pleasant. As water temperatures rise and baitfish become more abundant, red snapper become more active and aggressive in their feeding behavior. Anglers can capitalize on this by targeting known reef and wreck sites where red snapper are known to congregate, presenting their baits near the ocean floor to entice strikes.

While late spring and early summer are considered peak seasons for red snapper fishing in Mount Pleasant, these fish can be caught year-round with the right techniques and local knowledge. However, seasons set by fisheries management organizations may restrict the harvest of red snapper during certain times of the year to ensure sustainable management of the fishery.

What techniques are popular for catching red snapper in Mount Pleasant?

One effective method is bottom fishing, where anglers use heavy tackle and large baits such as squid, cut bait, or small fish to entice strikes from red snapper. Anglers typically target reef and wreck sites, as well as other artificial structures, where red snapper are known to congregate. By presenting their baits near the ocean floor and allowing them to drift naturally with the currents, anglers can increase their chances of hooking into these elusive fish.

Another productive technique for red snapper fishing in Mount Pleasant is using vertical jigging techniques. Anglers use heavy jigs with strong hooks to mimic the movement of injured baitfish and entice strikes from passing red snapper. Vertical jigging allows anglers to target red snapper at various depths and explore different areas where these fish may be holding. By varying the speed and motion of the jigging action, anglers can trigger aggressive strikes from red snapper and enjoy thrilling battles on the open water.

Additionally, live bait fishing can be highly effective for targeting red snapper in Mount Pleasant. Anglers use live baitfish such as pinfish, mullet, or small blue runners rigged on heavy tackle to entice strikes from red snapper. Live bait fishing requires patience and precision, as anglers must present the bait in a natural and enticing manner to lure in these wary fish. By understanding the behavior and preferences of red snapper, as well as adapting to changing conditions, anglers can maximize their chances of success when targeting these prized bottom-dwelling predators in the waters off the coast of Mount Pleasant.

Anglers targeting black sea bass often use bottom fishing techniques with small baitfish, squid, or jigs. These fish are known for their aggressive strikes and make for a rewarding catch for anglers of all skill levels.

    Our two boat trip was absolutely electric. First off, Capt. Chris' boat was perfect. For the price point, you'd be hard pressed to find a better fishing charter deal out of Charleston. The second boat in our group was equally as nice. Both boats were super comfortable, we just sat in the back on beanbags and drank beer as we raced out about 40 miles offshore. The guides gave us an in depth safety talk before taking off and took every safety precaution available, they definitely found a happy medium between fun and safety though. They were also very well informed about what was in/out of season, and the parameters for keeper fish. On first drop, we had 2 really nice red snapper hookups. Once that bite ran cold, we wasted no time, hopping around to multiple different locations, filling the cooler up with vermillion and other good eating fish. Even got a few 5+ foot sharks for the young'n that was with us. He was so stoked! We ran into a bit of weather but that didn't phase the guides, they had contingency plans to keep us busy. We elected to run deeper to avoid the thunderstorm that formed between us and the land, which meant we got a few extra hours of fishing (no complaints). The highlight of the trip was chumming up a cobia feeding frenzy right on the surface before we booked it back to the marina. Any time you can topwater fish for cobia, you're in for a treat. We almost landed a trophy cobia before a 8+ foot shark breached the surface and completely annihilated it about 20 feet off the back of the boat. It was so primal, none of us cared that we lost the trophy. I recommend these guys to anyone, beginners or lifetime anglers. Will definitely be using them again!
