FISHING CHARLESTON

Charleston is one of the great inshore fisheries on the East Coast — its vast spartina-grass flats and creeks hold redfish year-round, and sight-casting to tailing reds on the flood tides of spring and fall is the signature local experience. Sheepshead stack on the harbor jetties and dock pilings in the cooler months, and speckled trout fill the creeks in between. Offshore, the nearshore reefs and the Gulf Stream bring cobia in spring and a summer dolphin-and-wahoo run for the boats that make the run.
