About Your Trip

Looking for an adrenaline-pumping offshore fishing adventure? Then look no further than Charleston, SC – home to some of the best fishing in the world! A 10-hour, full day, offshore fishing trip is the perfect way to experience everything this amazing coastline has to offer.
Whether you're a seasoned angler or a novice, a trip aboard with Captain Johnston will be an unforgettable experience. He specializes in offshore fishing, and will make sure to put you on the fish.

On this trip, you'll hone in on Yellowfin Tuna and Wahoo—two of the fastest and most aggressive pelagic sportfish species, and both world-famous for their fighting ability, beautiful colors, and taste!
These fish travel thousands of miles hunting squid, baitfish, ballyhoo, and more, and when they hit your line, you'll feel it! To attract these fish, Captain Johnston will be trolling a variety of baits and lures, but as soon as that rod bends, it's all you! Bring your A-game, because these hard-fishing gamefish will test your skill, strength, and stamina. Each of these species are also delicious, either prepared raw as sashimi, seared on the grill with some lime juice, or in fish tacos! Your captain is happy to clean and prep your keepers for you back at the dock, so bring a cooler!

You'll be aboard Captain Johnston's 35' Everglades center console with a capacity for 6 anglers. Powered by three 300 HP Mercury engines, she'll shred through the offshore waters with ease to take you where the fish are biting! This vessel comes equipped with a GPS, Fishfinder, Live Bait Well, Fighting Chair, Outriggers, on-board Bathroom and Ice Box to store your catches.

Captain Johnston will provide all rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures and fishing licenses. All you need to bring is a pair of sunglasses, sunscreen, and any food or drinks you might want out on the water. You should also bring a camera to record your trophy fish. Head out to the deep waters and bag a personal record!

How did you get started guiding?

Have fished my whole life, but my first roommate in college was a charter captain. I saw that there was some money to be made in the business.

What makes you different from other guides?

I am very knowledgeable of the water. I am very passionate about what I do but I don’t let my passion get in the way of my emotions. After 5 years of doing this full time, iv gotten good at mixing passion with emotion.

Guide, Andrew, was great and patient with my 10 yr old. He worked hard and tried to teach him a few things. Unfortunately we got skunked (first time in 2 years for Andrew) although we did see some fish and got a few bites. I blame hurricane Ian on the disruption of normal patterns.
