July Fishing Options

CAPT. JASON DuBOSE – Outfitters Center Director & Head River Pro Looking for ideas to entertain summer visitors? How about a fishing charter or sight-seeing boat excursion to the fabled Daufuskie Island, the historic Savannah or Beaufort river fronts, or one of the many other nearby ports? Sure, a trip to the beach or afternoon by the pool is a must, but a day spent exploring our beautiful local waters is something your guests will be talking about for years to come. Our sight-seeing boat excursions are completely customizable and range from nature based tours to destination trips for lunch, shopping, and exploring a variety of unique locations. If this sounds like something you’d like to do give us a call at the Outfitters Center and we’ll be happy to discuss the many options and help you plan the ultimate day on the water. For some, a day on the water is not complete without wetting a line. Here’s my top picks for July fishing options! If plenty of action and excitement are what you’re looking for an inshore shark fishing trip will fit the bill nicely. These excursions are typically 4 to 6 hours in length but can shortened to 2 hours to accommodate groups with children who may not be up for a longer trip. Due to the quick action and short ride to the fishing grounds a shark trip is the perfect way to introduce kids to saltwater fishing. For experienced anglers looking for variety and adventure an offshore bottom fishing trip is a must. During the summer months our offshore live bottom areas located 35 to 45 miles offshore teem with a variety of gamefish including snapper, grouper, sea bass, triggerfish, ba- rracuda, amberjack, and king mackeral. Not only will you will you catch fish until your arms are sore, you’ll bring home plenty of fresh fish for the grill or frying pan! If you’d like give this type of fishing a try you may want to consider signing up for my offshore bottom fishing group trip on July 29th! There are limited spots available at a rate of $200 per angler. Private offshore bottom fishing charters will also be available all month long. Whether it’s fishing or sight-seeing make sure you plan on spending a little time on the water this July! I promise it will be one of the highlights of your summer!
