South Carolina Nearshore Charter | Fully Customizable
Charleston, SC
1-4 Guests • No Lodging • Public • Guided
Description
Experience Charleston's tidal water's with a guide named the “Best Fishing Charter” in Charleston by Charleston City Paper! Invite friends, co-workers, or bachelor/bachelorette parties for the trip of a lifetime on a group charter complete with a full tournament package.
We take you 3-20 miles out to a reef or ship wreck to target Black Sea Bass, Bull Red Drum, Black Drum, Sheepshead and Porgies.
With shipwrecks, artificial reefs and other geological structures littered just offshore Charleston's beaches, trophy fish are plentiful without having to venture into the Gulf Stream. On our Charleston Nearshore fishing charter, expect to hook up with Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, various shark species, Spadefish, Bull Redfish, and maybe even the elusive South Carolina Tarpon - all within view of the shore. If you are feeling adventurous, we are happy to take you beyond view of land to chase the bigger fish. We have experience bottom fishing, jigging or trolling, and we will accommodate our client's wishes for their preferred fishing style. Seasickness, big waves and wind are minimal for inshore charters, so these trips are perfect for families who do not want to deal with the harsh elements the sea can offer.
While on your Charleston inshore fishing trip, you can expect to see more than just the fish we are targeting. Dolphins, manatees, sea turtles and otters frequent the area and often come close to our boats.
Your experience is fully customizable. Charter lengths include 6, 8, and 10-hour adventures for 1-4 people. For full day (8+ hours) inshore charters, we are happy to provide a complementary shore lunch ("daily catch") cooked at a creekside restaurant, or a packed lunch for those of you who don't want a break in the action. Please let us know in advance which you prefer.
Base price includes 6 hours on the water for one angler.
For a longer trip or additional anglers, select options at checkout.
Boat
Blackjack 224's is our signature fishing boat, we won't have a problem getting you from spot to spot since they can reach speeds up to 70mph! Don't worry, we won't go THAT fast. We also have an array of flats boats, bay boats, and yachts to meet your needs.
License
A fishing license is included in your charter, so you do not need to purchase an additional license.
Kids
We all know children are sometimes impatient and need pretty steady entertainment. Our captains tend to be very good with kids and will try to keep them engaged while also educating them in the process. We encourage parents to bring their kids fishing and pass on our sport for generations to come. We recommend fishing for sea trout, as there tends to be more exciting bites on the line. We are also happy to build a custom package that allows some time for fishing as well as beachcombing to get some energy out. Let us know about your situation, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs as a family.

Rules & Guidelines
Cancellations
Please note, there is a $100 deposit included with your payment when booking.
Booking a trip ensures that a captain is reserved for you and you alone. If you need to cancel your trip for any reason, please call us as soon as possible. This will allow other anglers the opportunity to take your time slot. If you cancel by phone more than 48 hours in advance, you will get a full refund of your deposit. If you cancel 48 hours or less in advance of your charter, your deposit will go toward a future charter within the next 12 calendar months if there is availability. In the event of a no show, you will forfeit your deposit and be charged the full amount of the charter as well.
Weather Policy
A little rain never hurt anyone, but lightning can hurt. Our captains are trained to watch the radar closely and determine the safety of a trip. If the weather is deemed by the captain to be dangerous, we will happily refund your deposit. If your trip is cancelled due to weather, we will do our best to reschedule your charter on a different day with better weather if at all possible. Please know that weather is unpredictable in Charleston, and forecasts (even a few hours in advance) tend to be inaccurate.
