Highlights of this Inshore Fishing Trip

This winter fishing trip to Little Tybee Island showcased the excellent redfish action Savannah offers during cooler months. Throughout our 4-hour charter, we experienced consistent bites using various techniques including bottom fishing with live bait and casting artificial lures. The partly cloudy conditions provided ideal visibility on the water without harsh sun glare.

The shallow waters around Little Tybee Island provide perfect habitat for redfish, which were actively feeding throughout our trip. Captain Zach's local knowledge of productive fishing grounds ensured everyone had plenty of opportunities to hook into these hard-fighting inshore gamefish. The convenient 4-hour trip format offers enough time to experience quality fishing without consuming your entire day, making it perfect for families or anglers with limited schedules.

Local Species Insights: Redfish

Redfish in Savannah's waters thrive in the shallow, marshy areas around Little Tybee Island. During winter months, these fish often school up in deeper channels and holes where water temperatures remain more stable. The cooler water actually increases feeding activity as redfish prepare for spring, making winter an excellent time to target them.

Captain Zach employs several effective techniques for targeting Savannah redfish. Bottom fishing with fresh cut bait works exceptionally well in deeper channels, while artificial lures like soft plastics on jigheads produce great results when sight-fishing the flats during higher tides. Live bait presentations with shrimp or mud minnows under popping corks remain productive year-round, especially when worked near oyster beds and creek mouths where redfish ambush prey. The consistent winter bite makes Savannah a premier destination for anglers looking to experience quality redfish action without competing with summer crowds.
