Inshore Redfish and Black Drum Guided Trip
When you're looking for a top-rated inshore fishing experience in Savannah, this four-hour charter with Inshore Addictz Charters delivers exactly what serious anglers want. You'll get the captain's undivided attention on this 1-on-1 trip, whether you're just getting your feet wet in saltwater fishing or you're a seasoned angler wanting to learn the local hotspots. We're talking about real fishing here - working the salt marshes and estuaries where Savannah's best redfish and black drum hang out. The captain knows these waters like the back of his hand and adapts every trip based on what the fish are doing that day, not some cookie-cutter approach.
What to Expect on the Water
This isn't your typical party boat experience - you're getting a world-class guide all to yourself for four solid hours of fishing. The captain will pick you up from one of Savannah's launch points and head straight to where the action is. These local salt marshes are absolutely loaded with structure and current breaks that hold fish year-round. You'll be working different techniques throughout the trip, from bottom fishing around oyster bars to running float rigs over grass flats. The beauty of this setup is that the captain can switch gears instantly based on what's working. Maybe the redfish are tailing in shallow water, or the black drum are stacked up on a particular structure - whatever's happening, you'll be in the right spot with the right presentation. All your tackle is provided, so you don't need to worry about rigging up the wrong setup for these waters.
Techniques and Tackle
The captain comes prepared with everything you need - quality rods, reels, and all the terminal tackle that works in Savannah's inshore waters. You'll learn multiple approaches during your trip, starting with bottom fishing techniques that are deadly on black drum around dock pilings and oyster beds. Float rigs are another customer favorite here, especially when working the grass flats where redfish cruise looking for crabs and shrimp. Drifting is often the most productive method, letting your bait move naturally with the current while covering more water. The captain will show you how to read the water, spot nervous baitfish, and recognize the subtle signs that fish are feeding. Live bait isn't included in the base rate, but the captain will let you know what's working best and where to pick it up. The techniques you learn on this trip will serve you well if you decide to fish these waters on your own later.
Top Catches This Season
Redfish are the bread and butter of Savannah inshore fishing, and for good reason. These copper-colored fighters typically run 18-27 inches in these waters, with plenty of slot-size fish that put up serious battles on medium tackle. Fall and spring are prime time when they're feeding heavily in preparation for their spawning runs. What makes redfish so special is how they fight - they'll make long, powerful runs and use their broad sides to leverage against you. You'll often find them in water so shallow you can see their backs, which makes for some heart-pounding visual fishing. Black drum are the overlooked powerhouses of the marsh. These fish can get massive - we're talking 20-40 pound bruisers that will test your drag and your patience. They're bottom feeders that love crab and shrimp around structure, and when a big drum decides to run, you better hold on tight. Spring is when the big fish move in close, making this one of the best times to target trophy-size drum. Sea trout are the opportunistic feeders that show up throughout the year, especially around grass beds and drop-offs. They're excellent table fare and fight well for their size, typically running 14-20 inches with occasional bigger fish mixed in. Southern flounder are the ambush predators that lie in wait around current breaks and channel edges. These flatfish are masters of camouflage and provide some of the best eating you'll find in these waters. They're most active during cooler months when they're staging for their offshore migration.
Time to Book Your Spot
This renowned charter gives you everything you need for a successful day on Savannah's inshore waters. You're getting personalized instruction, quality gear, and access to productive fishing spots that most anglers never see. The 1-on-1 format means you'll learn faster and catch more fish than you would on a crowded boat. Whether you're looking to learn new techniques, explore different areas, or just enjoy some quality time on the water, this trip delivers real value. The captain's local expertise and flexible approach ensure you'll make the most of your four hours, regardless of conditions. Don't wait to book - the best fishing days fill up fast, especially during peak seasons when the redfish and drum are most active.
Learn more about the species
Black Drum
Black drum are the heavyweights of our marshes, commonly running 10-20 pounds with some bruisers pushing 40+ pounds. These fish have powerful jaws built for crushing oysters and crabs, so they put up a serious fight once hooked. You'll find them around oyster beds, creek mouths, and deeper holes in 3-15 feet of water. Spring is prime time when they school up for spawning - that's when we get the best action. They're actually in the same family as redfish and make those distinctive drumming sounds underwater. The smaller ones (under 15 pounds) are great eating with firm, white meat. Pro tip: use fresh blue crab or cut shrimp on a fish finder rig and keep your bait right on the bottom - they rarely feed up in the water column.
Redfish
Redfish are the ultimate inshore game fish around Savannah, easily identified by that signature black spot near the tail and copper-bronze coloring. Most slot fish run 18-27 inches, but we also target bull reds over 30 inches that really test your drag. They cruise shallow flats, oyster bars, and creek mouths in 1-6 feet of water year-round. Summer and fall are peak seasons when they're most active in the marshes. What makes them special is their willingness to eat topwater lures - those explosive surface strikes never get old. Plus, slot-sized fish are some of the best eating you'll find. They're not picky eaters but can be spooky in shallow water. Local tip: when sight fishing, lead them by a few feet with your cast and work lures slowly. Quick movements will send them running every time.
Sea Trout
Speckled trout are some of the prettiest fish we catch, with silver sides covered in distinctive black spots. They typically run 14-20 inches around Savannah, though we get some nice gator trout over 24 inches during cooler months. These fish love grass flats, creek edges, and drop-offs in 2-8 feet of water. Fall and winter are money times when they school up in deeper holes. What anglers love is their aggressive strikes and decent fight for their size. The meat is mild, white, and flaky - just don't overcook it or it gets mushy. They're sight feeders that hunt shrimp and baitfish actively. My local trick is working a soft plastic shrimp under a popping cork during moving tides. Keep it slow and steady - they'll often follow before committing to bite.
Southern Flounder
These flatfish are masters of disguise, burying themselves in sandy and muddy bottoms where they ambush prey like shrimp and small baitfish. Most run 15-18 inches, but we catch some nice ones up to 25+ inches in Savannah's creeks and estuaries. They're active year-round but really turn on during cooler months when they move through our inlets. What makes them special is that unique flat profile with both eyes on one side - always gets first-timers excited. The meat is sweet and flaky, perfect for the dinner table. My go-to trick is using live mud minnows on a Carolina rig and fishing the moving tide around oyster bars. They hit hard but don't jump, so stay patient when you feel that thump.
