Lowcountry Fisherman

We offer YEAR-ROUND flats fishing here in the Lowcountry waters of South Carolina. The Lowcountry’s tidal range is five to six feet across the board on a semi-diurnal tide cycle. During the Spring, the sun and moon align again influencing tides to rise higher than usual (Flood Tides) which are very unique to this area. In the months from March through November, this seasonal tide provides an excellent feeding ground for redfish as they push past their comfort zone and into a freshly built neighborhood of fiddlers. Although you can catch fish all year long at low, mid, and high tides, when it cools down things get interesting. The wintertime November - February many put covers on their boats for the year and the water grows free. Fish group up in massive schools which allows for an amazing experience as they come storming towards you. This is one of my favorite times to fish as the Charleston waters turn clear and the redfish get hungry! 4 Hours - Half-day trips provide a great option for getting on and off the water while having enough time to enjoy the rest of your day as planned. These are great for the beginning angler or someone who is just trying to fit it all in. 6 Hours - A 3/4 day of fishing gives us more time to target different fish and to better your odds at landing that giant! This will allow us to fish more of the tide cycle on different ends of the rise or fall. 8 Hours - A full day consists of fishing the whole tide cycle all the way through and can be very effective. Like two trips in one, being able to see the low and high of these waters can be fascinating.

During the Spring, the sun and moon align again influencing tides to rise higher than usual (Flood Tides) which are very unique to this area. Flood tides consist of hunting for fish tailing in the grass. In the months from March through November, this seasonal tide provides an excellent feeding ground for redfish as they push past their comfort zone and into a freshly built neighborhood of fiddlers. Flood tides are what the Lowcountry is known for with its flooded grass look. Catching fish in the flooded grass can be some of the most beautiful and exciting things to be a part of.

If it's your first time in the saltwater chasing redfish in the flats, I strongly recommend getting a casting lesson before our trip. This allows the guide to make minor adjustments to help your cast and make those shots count! This also allows the guide to know what he's working with when it comes to distance and skill level from a beginner or new saltwater fisherman. Getting a fish to eat the fly is one thing, but there's a lot more that comes with it! Learn about the five-step process when getting fish effectively and strategically to the skiff before going out on your trip. Don't look back on your trip wishing you could get that fly just a bit farther.... Book a fly casting lesson with us for an hour before our trip. Learn more about the flies, redfish behavior, and the area we are fishing in to better yourself and understand your adventure.
