Inshore Fishing Charters 4/10-4/13

   The bigger redfish bite is starting to become very steady. I found that most of the bigger schools are on the flats following the schools of mullet.  Cut mullet and blue crabs are still their preferred bait.  Although mud minnows will work fine as well. 
   The trout are still a little finicky but are starting to show up.  They are also still loving those mud minnows.  Dead high tide seems like the only time you catch trout steadily.

Inshore Redfish 4/10/14

Had a great day today fishing with a fella from Nebraska.  It was a blast.  I thought the small tides today would have had the fish a bit deeper than on the usual flats.  Not the case....the reds were schooled up and attacking the newly arrived mullet.   The bite was slower than expected.  We landed 3 fish and had one break off.  All of them were in the 25"-30" range.  My customer had a blast reeling in 3 nice redfish and looking at the schools of them swim by.  I would have to say today was a good day to be on an inshore fishing charter.

Redfish schools are still around!

     Went out today looking for reds in the flats boat today.  A couple dozen mud minnows and a couple live blue crabs blue crabs seemed like the perfect bait.  We headed up the Cooper River (since it's usually clear after a hard rain).  Not only did it surprise me again, but the fish were pretty active.  The fish loved quartered crab and hated mud minnows.  We ended up with with 6 nice over slot reds and one nice slot red.  The trout bite is still dead on popping corks. Phone died and no pics for the day.
     Getting ready for a blackfin tuna/ wahoo trip on Friday.  Hopefully there will be some awesome action around the Georgetown hole.  The reports are good and the rods are ready!  The cedar plugs and butterfly jigs are ready to hookup! http://www.exclusivefishingcharters.com

Sight Fishing Redfish With Artificials



Went up the Ashley River today on a scouting expedition for a fishing charter this weekend.  Saw this nice redfish thrashing some bait.  Two casts and he was on the line.  An amazing fight on light tackle!!

Redfish Action on the Flats

We are catching big fish! Even though the water temp is cold in the Charleston, SC harbor, the fish are still loving those artificial baits.  There's nothing like landing one of these beasts on light tackle! www.exclusivefishingcharters.com
