Charleston Fishing Charter Rates
Half Day
4 Hours on The Water
Trip Info
If you wanted to fish the flats, we would either the high or low tide depending on the best option for that day. This is a great option if you would like to take a short trip on the bay boat where tides aren't as crucial and your time is limited.
3/4 Day
6 Hours on The Water
Trip Info
This will enable us to fish the entire low tide cycle which will give you more opportunities to connect! Or if you choose the bay boat, we can fish some of the nearshore reefs or the jetties which opens up more options for different species.
*Most popular option
Full Day
8 Hours on The Water
Trip Info
On a full day on the flats boat we will see fish both sides of the low and the high. Usually best suited with a flood tide on one side but this also opens the door for other species. On full day in the bay boat we can explore the large range of the Charleston fishery and/or fish the nearshore reefs/wrecks for multiple species.
Meet Your Guide
Adam Lawson
Adam has been guiding and teaching the art of fly fishing since 2008 and has been very fortunate to have done so in beautiful areas such as Colorado, New Mexico, Alaska, Montana, Florida, Tennessee, the Bahamas and South Carolina. Growing up in Knoxville, TN was the perfect playground for a young angler. Surrounded by lakes and rivers and being in the shadow of the Great Smoky Mountains, it was easy to find a bass or trout to help gain the knowledge that has elevated his journey.
After guiding for trout out in the Rocky Mountains and Alaska for over a decade, Adam began to pine for the salty fish and the flats that they inhabit. While he is still passionate about trout fishing, it’s the opportunity to sight fish for a variety of species that love to eat flies and fight like there’s no tomorrow is what he lives for!
Adam and his beautiful wife Kass are grateful to call Charleston home and he loves taking new and old clients out fishing in the lowcountry and showing them the beautiful landscape that surrounds us as well as the fish that occupy it. When he’s not guiding he is tying flies, playing with his dog Brew and hosting trips to exotic locations around the world.
