Nearshore wrecks are smoking hot - The bite off the beach has been great. Numerous reports of Trigger fish, Gag Grouper, Black Sea Bass, Cobia, Spanish Mackerel, and lots of big sharks have been coming in. My trips the last week have been inshore due to choppy seas, and the weekend wi more...

A Day Off, but On - Had a day off Monday as did my buddy Capt Christopher Mattson of Mattson Charter Service. He and I do a lot of two boat trips together, but were able to fish together Monday. As the seas were gentle, we elected to run outside 8 miles to an artificial more...

Starting to turn on in the Port Royal Sound - As our water temperatures have started to climb into the low 70's things are starting to change. I have seen bait move into the sound the last week, Bonnethead sharks have returned inshore, and the first Cobia of the year in the sound has been caught more...

We fished two artificial reefs that are only 2 to 3 miles offshore. And they were loaded up with fish. Sheepshead to 6 pounds, weakfish, bluefish, S more...

Catching them in Lowcountry around the fronts - The last month has been a challenge to say the least for charter guides in the lowcountry. We've had lots of rain, and the wind has blown a lot. Having said that, the bite has still been pretty fair. I had two trips this past week, and we put 21 Redf more...

Cold Weather Lowcountry Redfish - We have really struggled in the Lowcountry of South Carolina to get in some quality fishing time. As with the rest of the country, our winter has been tough to say the least. Cold temperatures, lots of rain, and wind have not been friendly to the gui more...

January Redfish bite - Have had a few trips this month around the weather. Seems like we have had a number of fronts come through, bringing lots of rain and then cold and wind behind them. The water temps have dipped below 50, and the Redfish bite has been best on sunny af more...

January is Redfish month - With the water temperatures dipping down below 50 now, our efforts have turned to Redfish on the flats. We are fishing them on low tides, as the sun tends to warm the mud and in turn the water, and the bite turns on. Have had several very good trips more...

Great bite in the Sound creeks - Have been doing very well the last few weeks with the redfish and trout. The redfish bite has been on the flats, next to the grass or oyster beds, with live shrimp or mud minnows under a Midcoast popping cork. The trout bite is in deeper creeks near more...
