From the serious angler who wants to target the monster reds, flounder, trout, sheepshead or shark, to the small child that has never caught a fish, The Reel Deal Charters offers something for everyone. Your experience and capabilities will be discussed with our experienced staff to determine what best meets your expectations. Most of the inshore fishing we specialize in is done by the use of a trolling motor, casting the banks and flats which consistently produces action. Targeting reds and sheepshead at low tide where they are easier to catch usually makes for long runs with reds and muscle testing fights with sheepshead. Later, as the tide moves in, the trout and flounder usually turn on, providing nonstop action. We will also anchor when we have the fish concentrated in one area which can produce great action. We suggest that most of the time with small children is spent bottom fishing where the bite will keep the kids interested, they like a lot of action.
In South Carolina, sunscreen is a must during all weather. Creams seem to work better than the spray type. Bring what you plan to eat and drink (no glass bottles). Keeping hydrated is so important in the heat. On the inshore charters we do not guarantee keeper size fish. Depending on your pickup location the captain may not have the cleaning facility to clean your catch safely.
If you or anyone in your party is (or suspects that they are) allergic to fish, shellfish or seafood; we ask that you identify this serious issue at the time of booking your reservation. By identifying this in a timely manner it gives the captain the opportunity to take steps to try and sterilize the boat before you board. Most importantly we ask you to bring your EpiPen with you, in the case of an emergency, and identify it to the captain when boarding the vessel."
