May Fishing Report
May Fishing Report
Folly Beach fishing in May! By this time of year our Folly Beach fishing trips are out most days and having great results consistently. Inshore fishing charters are catching many different species of gamefish. Recently we have been able to target Bull Redfish, Sharks, Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Speckled Trout, Black Drum and more on a daily basis. The water temperature has been hovering around the high 70 degree mark for a while now, so plenty of species have moved in from offshore into our coastal waters. Unless we have strong winds we have been fishing in the creeks a little less and spending more time fishing the grasslines, inlets and jetties. Warm water and plenty of natural bait has all our local game fish feeding on a more regular basis.
Folly Beach has endless miles of beautiful marsh and shoreline to fish that we have been leaving the dock with over a dozen fishing rods stowed, just so we can be prepared for anything. Nearshore fishing charters have been catching Big Redfish, Black Drum and other bottom fish. We have been fishing the reefs and rock piles closer to the beaches and there has been plenty of activity there. This is a great time of year for all kinds of anglers. Our fishing charters range from 3 hr trips to 10 hour trips and start at $400. We are happy to host everyone from beginners of any age to seasoned anglers, we will be able to put together a great experience for you. I suggest you make your reservations as early as possible. The schedule is filling up!

Peaceful & Beautiful
This was my families first time at the ocean and I will never forget the look of joy on my youngest daughter’s face the moment the waves first came up on her feet. The beach was not over crowded, was clean, and was great for relaxing, swimming, and collecting seashells. There is a long pier for fishing off of and it is a beautiful sight at night. The town atmosphere was a nice mix between relaxing and having a good time and can work for the over 21 crowd as well as for families with small kids. There are plenty of great food stops and cute shops.
Fantastic & Peaceful
This beach is very relaxing and a great place to chill out. We saw several dolphins and enjoyed walking on the fishing pier. I would consider staying on the beach here next time we are in Charleston instead of downtown.
