Captain Zachs Fishing Charter in Savannah

Fishing Charter with Zachary Holick – Rates & Booking

Captain Zachary Holick of Captain Zach's Fishing Charter on Tuesday August offers a 6-hour inshore fishing trip that provides the perfect amount of time to explore Calibogue Sound's productive waters. Our inshore package includes all necessary gear, bait, and fishing licenses, allowing you to focus on the experience while we handle the details. We specialize in bottom fishing techniques along with casting lures and live bait presentations that consistently produce quality catches. Our vessel is comfortable and well-equipped for fishing these waters in various conditions. Early morning departures give us the advantage of hitting the best bite windows. Rates are competitive for the Savannah area, and booking in advance is recommended, especially during peak summer months.

Highlights of 6 Hour Trip – Inshore

Our 6-hour inshore trips on Calibogue Sound offer anglers access to some of Savannah's most productive fishing grounds. The sound's diverse structure creates ideal habitat for various inshore species, including the Black Drum that Maxine successfully landed during our recent trip. The mixed bottom structure and current seams throughout Calibogue Sound hold fish consistently, making it a reliable destination even when weather conditions aren't perfect.

We employ multiple fishing techniques during our charters to maximize your chances of success. Bottom fishing with natural baits produces quality fish, while casting artificial lures lets us cover water efficiently when targeting active fish. Live bait fishing rounds out our approach, particularly effective during summer months when predatory species are actively feeding. Captain Zach's local knowledge ensures we focus on the most productive areas based on tides, weather, and seasonal patterns.

Local Tips & Conditions

Fishing Calibogue Sound requires understanding its unique characteristics and how they affect fish behavior. The sound experiences significant tidal movement that creates feeding opportunities as water pushes through channels and around structure. During summer months, early mornings typically provide the most comfortable fishing conditions before the heat of the day sets in. Weather patterns can change quickly in the Savannah area, but Calibogue Sound often remains fishable even when offshore conditions deteriorate.

Water clarity varies based on recent rainfall and tidal movement, with clearer water generally producing better results when sight-casting with lures. The sound's diverse bottom structure includes oyster bars, creek mouths, and deeper channels that all hold fish at different tide stages. Understanding these patterns is crucial to consistent success, and our experience navigating these waters ensures we can adapt to changing conditions throughout your trip.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

Our fishing charters depart early morning from our convenient Savannah location. The boat comfortably accommodates anglers with quality fishing equipment including rods, reels, and tackle specifically selected for inshore species. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing, non-marking shoes, and bringing sun protection including hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen. A light jacket may be useful for morning departures even in summer months.

We provide all necessary fishing licenses, bait, tackle, and ice for your catch. Feel free to bring your own food and drinks (no glass containers), as well as a camera to document your fishing success. Our vessel includes basic amenities for your comfort during the 6-hour trip. For those prone to motion sickness, Calibogue Sound generally offers more stable conditions than offshore waters, but taking preventative medication before the trip is still recommended if you're concerned.
