Booking is simple—secure your spot online and prepare for a day of non-stop action on Savannah's inshore waters.

Highlights of 4 Hour Trip – Inshore

Spring fishing in Savannah delivers incredible action, as demonstrated on our recent trip when we landed an impressive 36-inch Redfish—a true trophy by any standard. The partly cloudy conditions created perfect fishing weather, with comfortable temperatures and calm waters around Tybee Island. We experienced consistent action throughout the morning, with multiple Spotted Weakfish coming aboard during our bottom fishing efforts.

What makes our inshore trips special is the variety of fishing methods we employ. We'll start with productive bottom fishing, then transition to trolling as conditions warrant, and even mix in some surf casting for a well-rounded experience. This approach ensures that even if one technique isn't producing, we can quickly adapt to keep the rods bending. The local knowledge I bring as your captain means we'll target the most productive areas based on tides, weather, and seasonal patterns—maximizing your chances for a successful day on the water.

Local Tips & Conditions

Savannah's inshore waters offer exceptional fishing opportunities, particularly in spring when water temperatures begin warming. The estuaries, tidal creeks, and nearshore waters around Tybee Island create perfect habitats for various gamefish species. During spring, focus on tide movements—fishing the last two hours of falling tide and first two hours of rising tide often produces the best results as predatory fish position themselves at creek mouths and along channel edges to ambush bait.

Weather patterns in Savannah during April typically feature mild temperatures and moderate winds, creating ideal fishing conditions. For optimal results, dress in layers as mornings can be cool but afternoons warm quickly. Polarized sunglasses are essential for spotting fish in shallow water, particularly when targeting Redfish in the flats. Our local waters accommodate anglers of all skill levels, from complete beginners to experienced fishermen looking to refine their technique. The relatively protected nature of our inshore waters means we can often find productive fishing grounds even when offshore conditions aren't favorable.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

Our fishing charters depart early morning from our convenient Savannah marina location. The boat is fully equipped with quality fishing gear, safety equipment, and electronics to locate fish effectively. We recommend bringing sunscreen, polarized sunglasses, a hat, weather-appropriate clothing, and a camera to document your catches. A small cooler for personal beverages and snacks is welcome, and we'll provide ice to keep everything cold.

Most anglers find our 4-hour trip ideal, providing sufficient time to explore multiple fishing spots while maintaining a comfortable pace. Our vessel accommodates small groups comfortably, ensuring everyone has space to fish effectively. For your comfort, the boat includes seating, shade, and a restroom facility. We practice catch-and-release for most species but can clean and package keeper fish for you to take home where regulations allow. All licenses and permits are covered under our charter, so you don't need to worry about additional paperwork—just show up ready for a great day of fishing!
