Highlights of Shark Fishing in Savannah

Shark fishing around Whitemarsh Island offers a unique combination of accessibility and excitement that makes it popular among Savannah visitors. The area's diverse structure and current flow create ideal feeding zones where multiple shark species congregate during summer months. Our trips employ multiple proven techniques—bottom fishing with cut bait, casting lures to visible activity, and strategic live bait presentations—to maximize your chances of connecting with these powerful predators.

What makes our shark fishing trips special is the hands-on experience. Captain Zach provides personalized instruction on proper technique, ensuring even first-time anglers can successfully hook and fight these impressive fish. The waters around Whitemarsh Island offer relatively protected conditions while still producing quality shark action, making this an ideal introduction to saltwater fishing for families. All shark fishing is conducted with conservation in mind, using appropriate tackle to minimize fight times and circle hooks to facilitate safe catch-and-release practices.

Local Tips & Conditions

Shark fishing in Savannah's inshore waters peaks during summer months when warmer water temperatures draw various shark species closer to shore. Morning trips typically benefit from calmer conditions before afternoon sea breezes develop, and the feeding activity is often most consistent during this time. The Whitemarsh Island area features a mix of channels, creek mouths, and structured areas that concentrate baitfish and create prime shark hunting grounds.

For maximum comfort during your trip, we recommend wearing weather-appropriate clothing, a hat, polarized sunglasses, and sunscreen. While our summer morning trips typically experience mild conditions, having a light jacket available is advisable for early departures. Captain Zach's boat is equipped with shade and basic amenities, but bringing water and snacks is encouraged. Cameras and phones should be protected in waterproof cases to capture memorable moments safely.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

Our shark fishing trips depart from a convenient marina location with ample parking and facilities. Plan to arrive about 15 minutes before your scheduled departure time for a brief orientation and safety discussion. The fishing vessel is a well-maintained center console specifically outfitted for inshore fishing comfort and safety. It features stable fishing platforms, quality electronics for locating productive areas, and all necessary safety equipment.

We welcome anglers of all experience levels, from complete beginners to seasoned shark fishing enthusiasts. Captain Zach provides hands-on instruction tailored to your comfort level, ensuring everyone can participate regardless of prior fishing experience. Group sizes are kept manageable to ensure personalized attention and plenty of fishing opportunities for each guest.
