Highlights of Inshore Fishing

Savannah's inshore waters offer remarkable diversity, from tranquil back bays to productive channels between Tybee Island and Wilmington Island. Spring trips provide excellent opportunities for multiple fishing methods—bottom fishing for Spotted Weakfish, trolling for bigger predators, and surf casting along productive shorelines. The variety of techniques keeps the day interesting and maximizes your chances of success.

The trophy 36-inch Redfish caught during our April outing demonstrates the quality of gamefish available in these waters. These powerful fighters provide thrilling battles on appropriate tackle, making them a favorite target for visiting anglers. Captain Zach's local knowledge ensures you'll fish the most productive spots based on tide cycles, weather patterns, and seasonal movements.

Local Tips & Conditions

Spring fishing around Savannah benefits from warming water temperatures that trigger increased feeding activity. Early morning departures take advantage of this prime feeding window, when fish are typically most aggressive. Tidal movements strongly influence fish behavior in these waters, with moving tides generally producing better results than slack periods. Captain Zach times trips strategically around these natural cycles to maximize your fishing opportunities.

Weather conditions can change quickly in coastal Georgia, but partly cloudy days often provide ideal fishing conditions, with comfortable temperatures and good visibility without harsh direct sunlight. The protected waters around Tybee and Wilmington Islands offer consistent fishing opportunities even when offshore conditions might be less favorable. Captain Zach's extensive experience in these waters ensures adaptability to changing conditions throughout your trip.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

Captain Zach's Fishing Charter provides everything needed for a successful day on the water, including quality rods, reels, and terminal tackle appropriate for targeted species. All necessary bait, from live options to proven artificial lures, is provided based on what's working best. The comfortable, well-maintained vessel includes safety equipment exceeding Coast Guard requirements, with enough space for efficient fishing without feeling crowded.

For maximum comfort, bring sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen), weather-appropriate clothing, non-marking shoes, and a camera to document your catches. A small cooler for personal beverages is welcome, and Captain Zach can provide recommendations for fish processing if you wish to keep your legal catch. Morning departures typically begin around sunrise, with exact meeting times confirmed during booking. Plan to arrive 15 minutes early to ensure an on-time departure and maximum fishing time.
