Highlights of 6 Hour Trip – Inshore

Our inshore fishing adventures around Savannah offer diverse experiences targeting multiple species. The structured waters around Tybee and Wilmington Islands create perfect habitats for Sheepshead, Flounder, Black Drum, and Sea Bass. We employ multiple fishing techniques during your trip, adapting to conditions and fish behavior to maximize your chances of success.

Fall provides some of the best fishing conditions in the Savannah area, with cooler water temperatures triggering feeding activity before winter. The calm inshore waters make this trip suitable for anglers of all experience levels, from beginners to seasoned fishermen. Captain Zach's local knowledge ensures you'll fish the most productive spots based on tide, time of day, and seasonal patterns.

Local Fish Insights

The inshore waters around Savannah offer excellent fishing opportunities year-round. Sheepshead are structure-oriented fish that love oyster beds and dock pilings, requiring precision casting and a delicate touch to catch. Southern Flounder can be found around sandy bottoms and drop-offs, particularly during their fall migration. Black Drum provide exciting action on light tackle, often found around deeper holes and structure. Sea Bass, while smaller inshore, offer consistent action and are excellent table fare.

Seasonal patterns strongly influence fishing success in Savannah's waters. Fall brings cooling temperatures that trigger increased feeding activity as fish prepare for winter. Spring sees warming waters and spawning behavior for many species. Summer offers consistent action, particularly during morning and evening hours. Winter fishing can still be productive, especially for Sheepshead around structure and deeper holes where Black Drum congregate.

Plan Your Fishing Charter Day

For your day on the water with Captain Zach's Fishing Charter, we recommend bringing weather-appropriate clothing, sun protection (hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen), food and drinks (cooler space available), and a camera to capture your catches. Early morning departures typically provide the best fishing conditions, though we can adjust based on tides and weather forecasts.

Our charter boat is well-equipped with quality fishing gear, safety equipment, fish-finding technology, and comfortable seating for your journey. We practice catch-and-release for conservation when appropriate but can also clean and package your legal-size fish to take home. Captain Zachary is a licensed guide with extensive knowledge of Savannah's waterways, ensuring a safe and productive fishing experience.
