Hop aboard with Captain Brent for a fun-filled day of fishing, where you'll create memories that last a lifetime! The day will start early at the boat landing, where you'll get acquainted, then briefly go over some safety instruction and boat familiarization before getting on the water. After loading up and departing from the dock, you'll make your way out through the Charleston Harbor, where you'll see many historic landmarks including the Charleston Battery, Ft. Moultrie, and Ft. Sumter, to name just a few! Pushing out from the harbor, you'll head 10-20 miles into the Atlantic. Feel free to connect via Bluetooth to the onboard JL Audio sound system, queue up your favorite playlist, and settle in for an hour ride out to the fishing grounds. For nearshore trips, we will do some bottom fishing/reef fishing, targeting the likes of Snapper, Grouper, Cobia, Amberjack, King Mackerel, Barracuda, and more! You are welcome to get as involved as you would like, whether you'd rather lounge until the reel starts screaming, or keep your hand on the rod the whole time. Captain Brent can make it happen! Beyond superior service and luxurious amenities, Captain Brent also provides the best rods, reels, tackle, and bait you could possibly need for a successful day out on the water. Bottled water is provided as well as plenty of ice to keep your catch, food, and beverages cold. It is recommended that you bring a cooler to take fish home after the trip is over, but please leave it in your vehicle as the boat has sufficient onboard coolers and fish box storage. All you need to bring onboard is your favorite lunch, snacks, drinks, sun protection (NO SPRAY/AEROSOL SUNSCREEN PLEASE!), a towel, a camera, and good vibes! Otherwise, Captain Brent will take care of the rest to make the most of your Charleston nearshore adventure! Read More

    Dustin was great! Not the most ideal day for fishing but he made it his goal for us to enjoy ourselves and catch fish. Is extremely knowledgeable about fishing. Would highly recommend.

    Our two boat trip was absolutely electric. First off, Capt. Chris' boat was perfect. For the price point, you'd be hard pressed to find a better fishing charter deal out of Charleston. The second boat in our group was equally as nice. Both boats were super comfortable, we just sat in the back on beanbags and drank beer as we raced out about 40 miles offshore. The guides gave us an in depth safety talk before taking off and took every safety precaution available, they definitely found a happy medium between fun and safety though. They were also very well informed about what was in/out of season, and the parameters for keeper fish. On first drop, we had 2 really nice red snapper hookups. Once that bite ran cold, we wasted no time, hopping around to multiple different locations, filling the cooler up with vermillion and other good eating fish. Even got a few 5+ foot sharks for the young'n that was with us. He was so stoked! We ran into a bit of weather but that didn't phase the guides, they had contingency plans to keep us busy. We elected to run deeper to avoid the thunderstorm that formed between us and the land, which meant we got a few extra hours of fishing (no complaints). The highlight of the trip was chumming up a cobia feeding frenzy right on the surface before we booked it back to the marina. Any time you can topwater fish for cobia, you're in for a treat. We almost landed a trophy cobia before a 8+ foot shark breached the surface and completely annihilated it about 20 feet off the back of the boat. It was so primal, none of us cared that we lost the trophy. I recommend these guys to anyone, beginners or lifetime anglers. Will definitely be using them again!
