Fishing Reports by Capt. Rick Percy

Redfish bite strong in Port Royal Sound area - The Redfish bite has been picking up the last couple of weeks in the Port Royal Sound area. I've had several excellent trips, with double digit numbers of Redfish. We are seeing schools of under slot fish beginning to show up now, as they leave the e more...

Summer fishing in the lowcountry - Summer brings higher water temperatures, and with it the bite can slow down a little, and that has been the case for the most part. Have done a little nearshore reef fishing this past month, with Bluefish, Black sea bass, Jack crevalle, and flounder more...

Redfish bite picking up in the Port Royal Sound area - After a slow few weeks, the Redfish bite has started to pick up a bite the last 10 days or so. I have been catching them on high tide in the grass, using cut mullet on big circle hooks, just free lining the bait. Had several fish pushing the 30 inch more...

Mixed bite in the Lowcountry - As our water temps have warmed to over 80 degrees now, lots of different fishing opportunities are available. Some Cobia are still being caught in the Broad River, and at the offshore reefs. The nearshore Spanish Mackerel and Bluefish bite has slowed more...

Slow Cobia year inside Port Royal Sound - With all the screwy weather we have had this spring and the slow water warm up, our Cobia run never really materialized like normal.

Redfish are the name of the game - As we move out of March shortly, hopefully our weather will improve the next couple of weeks. Our trips have been restricted due to winds and rain much of the month, but the Redfish bite has been good on the good days. Live mud minnows under popping more...

Redfish on the Broad River - Had several trips the last two weeks of February when the weather permitted. The Redfish are still in survival mode, schooled up in big numbers and staying very shallow to avoid being eaten by our numerous bottle nose dolphins, or Flipper. These fi more...

Redfish bite is on the flats - Fished 3 days recently before our winter storm, and had pretty good success finding some nice Redfish schools on the flats during periods of low water. The fish were in schools of from 10 fish to 150. Our water is very clear right now, and you are ab more...
