Another phenomenal afternoon on the water! Lots of hungry redfish and a bunch of Big Trout as well! I just got cancelled for tomorrow and the bite is going to be cray cray good! Call me, let’s go! Guaranteed fish. This is the time of year that the “crush” happens on the reg.

This is how today started here while inshore fishing out of Charleston, SC. First five minutes. Wound up tagging 15 Reds today and catching a couple others that were tagged already. Not to mention 20 or so Trout and a bunch of black drums and sheeps. #RedfishMafia #RedFishMafiaCharters #YamahaOutboards #K2Coolers #PENNFishing #Spiderwire #CostaDelMar #TraegerGrills #bomberlures #palmettostatearmory #calcuttafishing #northaugustacustoms #thmarine #raymarine #CaptainsForCleanWater
#powerpole Raymarine Had some great fishing in the past week. Great clients too! The Trout bite was on fire until yesterday when the when switched to East. Short front coming through today and everything will be back to normal tomorrow. The Redfish have been mixed in with them too. The coming months are going to be off the charts good until the water gets below 50 degrees, if it does.
CHARTER RATES 1/2 day inshore for 2 ppl is $400 1/2 day inshore for 3 ppl is $450 1/2 day inshore for 4 ppl is $600 Guaranteed fish! Call to Book: 843-364-1759 It has officially started! The fall bite is in full swing in the Charleston, SC area! Right about the time the air temps start dipping down into the high fifties, two things happen; the deer start to do their thing and so do the fall speckled trout! This week has been incredible fishing and it’s just gonna get better. Tons of finger mullet and big shrimp around means the bait is easy and plentiful! Put either one on a popping cork with a leader that is about a foot shorter than the depth of water you’re fishing and it’s go time! There are a lot of 25-35 inch Redfish mixed in with the specs and some occasional big flounders as well.
Capt. Jamie Hough 843-364-1759 www.theredfishmafia.com www.flatspotcharters.com As fall is fast approaching and night time air temps start dipping, so do the water temperatures. This triggers a transition into my favorite and most productive time of year. The Redfish and Trout start feeding like they haven’t eaten in weeks. They have to store up calories for a cold winter ahead. The last week of September was the start of this years transition. Tons of finger mullet and jumbo shrimp around in the harbor and in the creeks so don’t put the cast nets up yet! It’ll be another few weeks before they start eating the grubs and jig heads! Hit Tips: As the water gets cleaner, reduce the size of your fluorocarbon leaders. I sometimes get down as far as 8 pound leaders for the Sea Trout. I usually don’t go any lighter than 15 pound floro leaders for the Redfish.
Capt. Jamie Hough 843-364-1759 www.theredfishmafia.com www.flatspotcharters.com It's been a long couple of weeks with the floods and the hurricanes. It was good to get back to fishing this week. The Trout bite has been incredible with some black drums and some redfish thrown in. The redfish that we're catching are the ones you can't see. The schools on the flats won't bite at all. To much pressure or too much fresh water. I don't know. Thank God the Trout bite is off the charts!
Capt. Jamie Hough 843-364-1759 www.theredfishmafia.com www.flatspotcharters.com The giant reds are still in Charleston Harbor. Trout of all sizes are extremely plentiful right now as are the juvenile Mangrove Snappers. The tarpon and shown up in good numbers as they await the mullet run and the giant black drum and jacks have been caught with frequency as well. August and September are pretty much in this holding pattern as we await the falling temperatures of October, November, and December which will get the jumbo 2-7 pound sea trout and the schooling reds fired up enough to eat anything you throw at them!
Capt. Jamie Hough As the hottest month of the year gets into full swing here in Charleston, the water has actually been cooling down. Lots of rain and some cooler nights have dropped the water temps a good 10 degrees. What does that mean? Higher saturated oxygen content! And what does that mean? That means the fish are moving around more and they're more cooperative than they have been. That's a good thing!
Capt. Jamie Hough 843-364-1759 www.theredfishmafia.com www.flatspotcharters.com August is the hottest month of the year in Charleston. The fishing isn't "normal" during August and the hotter months. The schools of redfish and trout can be harder to find and the trout in general are a little smaller. Don't fret though, the giant reds are swarming this time of year and the 30 plus inch schooling reds are very catchable. It just takes a little more knowledge and some changes in tactics.
Capt. Jamie Hough 843-364-1759 www.theredfishmafia.com www.flatspotcharters.com Lots of species out there this time of year. The giant bull reds are chomping, the Spanish and the bluefish are all over the harbor, and the big jacks have made a few appearances as well. The schooling reds are in the waterway and on an incoming tide, there are plenty of trout to be caught. The spade fish and amberjacks are all over the nearshore reefs too!
