Summary

Sunday June brought a perfect day for inshore fishing in Savannah, GA with Captain Zach's Fishing Charter. We started early morning from River Drive, exploring the productive waters around Whitemarsh Island with clear skies that later gave way to gathering clouds. Using a variety of techniques including bottom fishing, live bait fishing, and casting artificial lures, we targeted the local species while enjoying the scenic salt marshes that make Savannah's inshore waters so special. Even on days when the fish aren't jumping in the boat, the experience of being out on these beautiful waterways with knowledgeable local guidance makes every charter worth it. Perfect for both beginners and experienced anglers, these private inshore fishing trips offer a personalized approach to finding the best seasonal bite.

Local Species Insights: Atlantic Mackerel

Atlantic mackerel make occasional appearances in Savannah's inshore waters, particularly when water temperatures and bait conditions are favorable. These streamlined predators are known for their aggressive feeding habits and powerful runs when hooked. While not the primary target for most Savannah inshore trips, they provide exciting action when encountered.

Captain Zach knows how to find these fast-moving fish when they're in the area, typically focusing on areas with good current flow and concentrations of baitfish. When targeting mackerel, he'll often recommend faster retrieves with flashy lures or small bait presentations that mimic their natural prey. The fight of an Atlantic mackerel on light tackle provides an exciting challenge even for experienced anglers, with their quick bursts of speed and acrobatic jumps making them a memorable catch during your Savannah fishing adventure.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

When booking with Captain Zach's Fishing Charter, plan to arrive at the 2812 River Dr meeting point about 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time. Wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather, including a light jacket for morning trips and sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) for those bright Savannah days. While all fishing equipment is provided, you may want to bring a small cooler with beverages, a camera to document your catches, and any personal snacks you might want during the trip.

The boat comfortably accommodates up to 4 guests with ample fishing space and the essential safety equipment required for a secure day on the water. Captain Zach is known for his patient instruction for beginners while also providing the expertise that experienced anglers appreciate. His local knowledge of Savannah's waters ensures you'll have the best possible chance at a productive fishing experience regardless of your skill level.
