Charleston Fishing Charters (Learn
more about our boat and equipment!)
The
stage for your Charleston fly fishing
adventure comprises one of North Americas unique and altogether
exotic environments. You will discover endless sweeps of shallow
water flats, hidden creeks, blue-green bays and wild, forested
islands.
The waters wreathing this semi-tropical panorama team with
redfish (spottail bass) the year round. April and May bring
higher (spring) tides which carry feasts to redfish feeding
in the flooding spartina grass flats. These tides provide
access into these green realms by boat, or my favorite way,
wading to the fish that seemingly beckon with waving tails.
This continues on into the early part of November depending
on the weather, always. The hard-fighting Jack Crevalle abounds
through the late summer months in Charleston Harbor, and speckled
trout, flounder, bluefish, ladyfish, sheepshead, black drum,
spanish mackerel, tarpon and numerous varieties of shark lurk
as well.
Into September and continuing with the cooler water as the
weather turns colder, the water clears, and the redfish get
into enormous schools. This makes it an ideal time from
October to March, to come and sight fish these reds, at the
best time.
Tall tail charters offers all sorts of trips for fishing, wildlife explorations, and harbor cruises. The 2010 prices will be listed to the left. Addditonal anglers can be added for $50 up to three people on the skiff, and $50 per head up to six on the bay boat. 50% deposit will be taken per credit card or check upon booking and the remainder will be due at the end of the trip.

About the Boat & Equipment
"Tall
Tails" is a 18 Guide\O'Bannon Edition with
a 70hp Yamaha outboard; its shallow draft, 4 3/4 inches, will
allow us to explore and fish in flats that are otherwise
inaccessible at certain tides. These amazing skiffs are built
by Hells Bay Boatworks, in Titusville, Florida; check them out
under my links. |
