Highlights of 6 Hour Trip – Inshore

Our inshore fishing trips target Savannah's productive redfish fishery using specialized techniques that work in these waters. Bottom fishing and still fishing with bait proves consistently effective, even as conditions change throughout the day. The fall season brings excellent redfish opportunities as these fish become more active in the cooling waters. Light tackle setups enhance the experience, providing exciting fights when you hook into these powerful fish.

Early morning departures take advantage of prime feeding times when redfish are most active. We'll work different areas based on tide, conditions, and recent fish activity to maximize your chances of success. The 6-hour format gives us plenty of time to adjust approaches if needed, ensuring you get the most from your time on the water.

Local Species Insights: Redfish

Redfish in Savannah waters thrive in our diverse inshore ecosystem. These copper-colored fighters, identifiable by their characteristic tail spots, inhabit shallow flats, oyster beds, creek mouths and deeper channels depending on tide and season. Fall brings particularly good redfish action as cooling temperatures trigger increased feeding activity.

The most productive techniques for Savannah redfish include bottom fishing with cut bait near structure and still fishing along current seams where these fish patrol for food. Light to medium tackle provides the perfect balance of control and fighting fun when you hook into one of these hard-pulling fish. Whether you're casting along grass edges during high tide or working deeper holes on the outgoing, our local knowledge puts you in the right place at the right time for redfish success.
