Full Day Fishing: Hook Your Next Adventure

Ready for a day on the water you won't forget? Our full day trip is your ticket to some serious inshore action. We're talking one-on-one time with the captain, targeting whatever's biting, and using every trick in the book to get you on fish. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting your feet wet, this trip's got something for everyone. So grab your hat and let's hit the flats!

What's the Deal?

Picture this: You, the captain, and a whole day to explore the best inshore spots. We're not messing around - we're here to fish. We'll be using all the tricks - bottom fishing, float rigs, drifting, you name it. Whatever it takes to get those rods bending. And don't worry about gear, we've got you covered. Just bring your A-game and maybe a snack or two. Oh, and a heads up - live bait's not included in the price, but trust me, it's worth grabbing if you want to up your chances.

Tactics and Techniques

Inshore fishing isn't just about dropping a line and hoping for the best. We're talking strategy here. Depending on what's biting, we might start with some bottom fishing, working those jigs or bait along the seafloor. Redfish hanging around structure? We'll set up a drift and let the current do some of the work. Or maybe we'll switch it up with some float rigs if the trout are schooling up. The captain's always got an eye on the conditions, so we'll adapt as we go. It's all about reading the water, knowing the tides, and being ready to switch gears when the fish decide to play hard to get.

Reel Talk from Real Anglers

"Our entire experience with Inshore Addictz Charters was outstanding from beginning to end. Captain Shennen went above and beyond to ensure every detail was in place for an incredible day on the water. When we arrived at the dock, the boat was fueled, spotless, and fully stocked with live bait—everything ready to go." - Anonymous

"We had an awesome experience with Inshore Addictz! Caught some fish and made unforgettable memories with family and friends. We'll definitely be booking another trip with Captain Shennen in the future!" - Anonymous

"Outstanding service! Captain knew the area like the back of his hand and gave us plenty of guidance and insight about the fish we were targeting. We had an awesome time and landed some big redfish!" - Anonymous

What's on the Line?

Let's talk fish. We're not just out here for a boat ride - we're after some of the best inshore species around. Here's what you might be tangling with:

Southern Flounder: These flatfish are masters of camouflage and can be a real challenge to spot. But man, are they worth it. They've got a sweet, delicate flavor that's hard to beat. Look for them hanging out on sandy or muddy bottoms, especially near structure. Spring and fall are prime times to target these tasty devils. When you hook one, get ready for some head-shaking and spirited runs.

Black Drum: Don't let their ugly mugs fool you - these bruisers can put up one heck of a fight. They love to hang around oyster beds and bridge pilings, using those sensitive barbels to root out crabs and shrimp. The bigger ones can top 50 pounds, so make sure you've got your drag set right. They're most active in the cooler months, but you can find them year-round if you know where to look.

Sea Trout: Also known as speckled trout, these guys are a favorite among light tackle anglers. They're ambush predators, so look for them around grass flats, drop-offs, and creek mouths. Early morning and late evening are prime times to catch them smashing bait on the surface. They've got soft mouths, so a gentle hookset is key. And let me tell you, there's nothing quite like the sound of a big trout gargling a topwater lure at dawn.

Redfish: Ah, the mighty red drum. These copper-colored beauties are the crown jewels of inshore fishing. They can be found in shallow flats, tailing in the grass, or cruising the beaches. Sight-fishing for reds is an adrenaline rush like no other. When they're on, they'll eat just about anything - live bait, artificial lures, even flies. And when you hook one, hold on tight. They've got shoulders for days and will test your drag and your stamina.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Look, there's a reason our regulars can't get enough of these full day trips. It's not just about the fish (though that's a big part of it). It's about the whole package. You're getting one-on-one time with a captain who knows these waters like the back of their hand. No crowded party boats, no rushed schedules. Just you, the captain, and a full day to dial in on what's biting.

And let's talk about that personal touch. Our captains aren't just there to put you on fish - they're there to help you become a better angler. Whether you're looking to fine-tune your casting, learn new techniques, or just want to soak up some local knowledge, this is your chance. It's like having a floating fishing seminar, but way more fun.

Plus, there's something special about spending a full day on the water. You've got time to really explore, to try different spots and techniques. Maybe you start the morning chasing trout, switch to redfish as the tide changes, and finish up with some bottom fishing for black drum. It's all on the table.

Time to Wet a Line

Alright, let's cut to the chase. If you're looking for a top-notch inshore fishing experience, this full day trip is where it's at. You've got the personal attention, the local know-how, and a full day to make it happen. Whether you're after your personal best, want to learn some new tricks, or just want to spend a day on the water doing what you love, we've got you covered.

So what are you waiting for? The fish are out there, and they're not going to catch themselves. Book your trip now and get ready for a day of rod-bending, drag-screaming action. Trust me, your only regret will be not doing it sooner. Let's go fishing!

Customer Reviews

Family Fishing Fun

quotes

Our entire experience with Inshore Addictz Charters was outstanding from beginning to end. Captain Shennen went above and beyond to ensure every detail was in place for an incredible day on the water. When we arrived at the dock, the boat was fueled, spotless, and fully stocked with live bait—everything ready to go. Captain Shennen was exceptionally friendly and engaging, especially with my 13-year-old son and 11-year-old daughter. He took the time to patiently teach them how to bait hooks, cast properly, and better understand the behavior of different fish species. His ability to strike the perfect balance between instruction and encouragement stood out—he knew exactly when to guide them and when to let them learn independently. Unlike some charters where the captain handles everything, Captain Shennen made sure the kids were involved in every part of the fishing experience. His hands-on, educational approach was perfectly tailored to their age and interests. While fishing always comes with some unpredictability, Captain Shennen’s deep knowledge of the tides, wind patterns, and fish behavior kept us adaptable throughout the day. His expertise paid off—we ended up catching around 20 fish! We chose to release most of them, but kept a few, which Captain Shennen expertly cleaned and filleted for us to enjoy at home. Most importantly, the kids had an unforgettable time. The day was filled with excitement, learning, and plenty of smiles—creating memories we’ll cherish for a long time. If you’re looking for a professional, family-friendly inshore charter experience, I highly recommend Inshore Addictz Charters. Captain Shennen delivers a top-notch, personalized adventure that’s both fun and memorable.

Chill Catch Thrill

quotes

Had an awesome day on the water with Inshore Addictz Charters. The weather was a bit chilly, but Captain Shennen Holtz knew exactly where to find quality fish. I even had the chance to help with tagging and data collection on a beautiful redfish. I would absolutely head out with them again!

Black Drum

Black Drum are the heavyweights of the drum family, often tipping the scales at 30-50 pounds. You'll find these bruisers hanging around oyster beds, shallow flats, and near inlets. They love brackish water and can tolerate a wide range of salinities. Spring's the hot time to target them, as they school up to spawn. Black Drum put up a stubborn fight, using their size to their advantage. They're not the prettiest fish, but anglers love 'em for the challenge and the tasty meat of smaller ones. Bigger drums over 15 pounds can get tough and wormy, so consider releasing those. For bait, nothing beats a fresh piece of crab or shrimp. Here's a tip: when you feel that telltale thump, give 'em a moment before setting the hook. Black Drum have tough mouths, so make it count.

Black Drum

Redfish

Redfish, or Red Drum, are the bulldogs of the flats. They love shallow water, often tailing in just a foot or two. Look for them around oyster bars, grass flats, and mangroves. These copper-colored fish typically run 20-30 inches inshore, but can grow much larger offshore. They're known for their powerful runs and stamina - hook one, and you're in for a fight. Fall's prime time as they school up, but you can catch 'em year-round. Anglers love targeting redfish for their hard-fighting nature and excellent table fare. They'll hit a variety of baits, from live shrimp to artificial lures. Topwater plugs can provoke explosive strikes in shallow water. Here's a tip: when you spot a tailing red, cast well beyond it and slowly work your lure into its field of vision. Patience and accurate casting are key to landing these wary fish.

Redfish

Southern Flounder

Southern Flounder are masters of camouflage, blending into sandy or muddy bottoms in shallow coastal waters. They typically range from 15-18 inches, but can grow up to 33 inches. These flatfish are ambush predators, lying in wait for smaller fish and crustaceans. You'll find them in bays, estuaries, and along the coast, often in water less than 5 feet deep. Fall is prime time for catching flounder as they move to deeper waters to spawn. Anglers love targeting them for their delicate, mild-flavored meat. When fishing for flounder, patience is key. Use a slow retrieve with live bait or soft plastics, feeling for that distinctive "thump" when they grab the bait. A local trick: try drifting with a Carolina rig and a live mullet or bull minnow for best results.

Southern Flounder

Sea Trout

Sea Trout, also known as Speckled Trout, are a favorite among inshore anglers. These silvery, spotted fish typically run 14-24 inches, though some monsters push 30 inches. You'll find them in grass flats, around oyster bars, and in deeper channels during winter. They're ambush predators, so look for moving water and structure. Spring and fall are prime seasons, but you can catch them year-round. Anglers love 'em for their aggressive strikes and tasty, flaky meat. Sea Trout put up a good fight on light tackle, often making spectacular jumps. They're suckers for live shrimp under a popping cork, but artificial lures like soft plastics and topwater plugs work great too. Here's a local tip: try fishing the edges of grass flats on a falling tide - that's when trout move to ambush bait getting swept off the flat.
