About This Adventure
Experience the thrill of inshore fishing in Charleston, a premier East Coast destination. Target overslot redfish and doormat flounder in stunning tidal creeks and marshes. Enjoy a half-day charter complete with all gear and a complimentary shore lunch for full-day trips, making your fishing adventure truly unforgettable.
About
The inlets, sounds, bays, tidal creeks, marsh grass and oyster banks in our area make Charleston one of the top inshore fishing destinations on the East Coast, and for very good reason. With overslot redfish tailing in the grass to doormat flounder being pulled from the muddy bottom, our inshore charter is sure to inspire you to come back.
Duration
Half Day Charters last 4 hours and start at $500.
The price includes fishing licenses, bait, rods, reels, tackle, water, and ice. For full day inshore charters, I am happy to provide a complementary shore lunch (“daily catch”) cooked at a creekside restaurant.
