Highlights of Savannah Inshore Fishing

The waters around Daufuskie Island offer exceptional variety for inshore anglers, with structure changes and current flows that attract redfish, speckled trout, black drum, and summer flounder. Spring and summer months provide some of the most consistent action, when these species are actively feeding in both shallow and deeper water. The mixed-technique approach allows anglers to experience trolling patterns, bottom fishing over structure, and sight casting with lures depending on conditions and fish behavior.

Six-hour trips provide the time needed to work different areas and techniques, from the flats where redfish cruise to the channels and drop-offs that hold trout and drum. The flexibility to move around and adapt to fish location makes these longer trips particularly productive for anglers wanting to experience the full range of what these waters offer.

Local Species Insights

Savannah's inshore waters around Daufuskie Island support healthy populations of redfish, speckled trout, black drum, and summer flounder throughout the warmer months. Redfish patrol the shallow flats and oyster bars, often visible to sight-casting anglers during calm conditions. Speckled trout prefer areas with moving water and structure, responding well to both live bait and artificial lures worked near drop-offs and channel edges.

Black drum frequent deeper holes and structure, particularly during spring when they're actively feeding before summer heat. Summer flounder position themselves in sandy areas with current flow, ambushing prey from the bottom. The variety of habitats around Daufuskie Island—from shallow grass flats to deeper channels—creates opportunities to target all these species during a single trip using different techniques and presentations.
