| Even though all of these species
are fun to catch, we think that the jewel of Charleston
is our red drum fishery. South Carolina is now said to
be one of the top states, behind Florida and Texas, to
fish for red fish. |
Roaming bonnethead sharks are also sight fished in the
shallow flats. The bay holds good numbers of the hard
fighting jack crevalle, blue fish, sheepshead, lady fish,
and black drum. The inlets hold larger sharks and tarpon
... and more reds. |
Since Charleston has such an inviting landscape it is
home of many different kinds of fish. Some of the species
of fish that Dream Catcher Charters fish for range from
sharks to red fish. In the shallow flats we pole for
large schools of lady fish, flounder, and sea trout.
|
Yes, we said tarpon. It was probably not three years
ago that a person would not catch one tarpon per year.
We do not know why but now a days it is not unheard of
to get multiple hook-ups a day. |
| These fish are found
schooling in the shallows, moving into the bays, out
of the inlets, and hugging near-shore reefs. The reds
follow their favorite meals with the tides. Eating anything
from mullet, shrimp, menhaden, fiddlers, and crab. |
These are very beautiful, hard fighting fish that group
into schools of up to 100 fish. If you fish in the inlets
or near-shore reefs you can catch fish that reach up
to 50 to 60lbs. The current South Carolina record is
90lbs. Hopefully, with a little bit of your help, we
can break that record. |
