Offshore and Nearshore Fishing At Edisto Beach
Offshore fishing offers the opportunity to angle for some of the most challenging fighting fish like Blue Marlin, Sailfish, Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, and others! Plan on a full day if you want to go fishing offshore. Spend the day fishing in the beautiful blue water off the coast of Edisto Beach! These species are fished for by trolling artificial lures or Ballyhoo.
You can also fish offshore for species such as Grouper, Snapper, Triggerfish, Bonita, and more. Groundfishing for these species often involves fishing the bottom with cut bait like cigar minnows or squid.
Nearshore fishing offers the chance to catch King Mackerel, Cobia, Spadefish, Albacore, and others. Nearshore charters do not take as long as a true offshore charter.
Plan on spending a full day on an offshore fishing charter. A nearshore charter is a few hours less than offshore. Inshore charters last between four to six hours and do not go out into the open Ocean.
The knowledgeable captains and crews at Fontaine Charters, Edisto Shrimp Boat Charters, and Herring Gull Charters are ready to take your group fishing!
