Charter fishing in Charleston and Folly Beach fishing has been good as we enjoy another mild winter. Deep Sea fishing charters have been producing good size and numbers of King Mackerel, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Redfish, Black Sea Bass and several other species. These fish are aggressively attacking a variety of cut and live baits.
Our Charleston Deep Sea boats are fishing in 50 to 70 ft of water and focusing on reefs and wrecks while bottom fishing. We have also found a tendency to score larger fish on big artificial lures such as Bucktail jigs and 5 inch Z-man swim baits by trolling and jigging around submerged structure and rock piles. Our weather has been a little tough off the beach. On days that we haven’t been to travel far due to rough conditions we have had great luck staying inside the jetties and close to shore.
Big schools of Redfish are cruising the numerous flats in Charleston and Folly Beach. We have been catching those fish using soft plastics, live shrimp, mud minnows and cut mullet. Many big redfish are being caught and we have had much of the water to ourselves, especially during the week. Keep in mind the fish can be spooky and a quiet approach will help you get more bites. The best thing to do is give them some room and watch how they react to your presentation. If they don’t hit the first bait you throw towards them try another. We recently had to back off our fish a few times and let them rest for 5 or 10 minutes before making another presentation and hooking up.
The fish are here and biting and our short cold spells will soon give way to longer warm spells then, before you know it Spring will be here! There are plenty of good dates open but with Spring Break and Summer vacation on everyone’s mind a lot of reservations are coming in. Charleston and Folly Beach seems to be getting busier every year, so get your trips booked now to get the dates you want. You can reserve your date and make your reservation online here, or simply call or text to connect with us.
We have several new options including the new 2 hr charter which has been extremely popular with casual anglers and families with young anglers. As always feel free to reach and and discuss which options will be the best for you and your crew. Let’s go fishing!
