Hilton Head Island Fishing  - Off The Hook Fishing Charters

Well the spanish mackerel bite finally slowed down from the hot action the past few days so I decided 
to take my clients the Barnett family fishing for redfish. As soon as we casted out three baits at one of 
my trusty redfish spots we had hooked these three fish pictured at once! A triple header of redfish this size 
made for an incredible start to the trip. We ended up catching a few more and moved to another spot where
we had another triple header but this time they were all big bonnet head sharks! What a trip!

Holy Mackerel! The past few day's have been incredible for the  spanish mackerel fishing just right off of the
 beach of Hilton Head. The spanish are coming in good size schools jumping and exploding on the baits and 
spoons for some drag burning fun! My clients have been having a blast and are getting a good little bag of fish
to take home.We kept only what we need and released the rest. Looks like fish taco's tonight!

Sharks,Sharks!!! Has been the story the past few trips mixed with a few spanish mackerel and bluefish.
My client Patrick Spine is holding a small black tip shark that is one of the more dominant summertime
species of sharks. Black tips are one of my favorite sharks to catch because of there long blistering runs 
on the light tackle and there incredible jumping ability. Depending on where I am fishing you can always
count on plenty of shark action to keep the rods bent from the start of the trip to the very end of the trip!

It's been Hot, Hot, Hot out there!! 
The inshore and nearshore action has been red hot on the sandbars with plenty of good size spanish mackerel, 
ladyfish, bluefish and several species of sharks ranging 2-5ft. Bob Martire and his father who have fished with me 
already 3 times this week got into some really nice redfish (last pics) early this morning that were a good 5-12lbs. 

What a day yesterday! To start the morning My client Rich Walp was trying to catch his first saltwater fish 
on the fly. As I polled him down a flat looking for a school of a redfish a large bonnet head shark was cruising 
the flat and I told him to cast to the shark and wham! the shark was on. Unfortunately the hook got fouled in
the sharks gills during the fight. Had the hook stayed in the sharks mouth it would have been a world record!!
He also  ended up catching his first redfish and flounder on the fly. Not Bad! 

Yesterday afternoon My client Fred Newman and his son had the trip of a lifetime with non stop action catching 
black tip sharks and big spanish mackerel on the surface. The high light of the trip came as a surprise to me about 
a hour into the trip Fred was holding his rod and yelled "Tarpon" I couldn't believe when I looked up and saw the 50
pound taron dancing in the air at a spot where a tarpon had not been hooked or caught in 20 years!! He fought the
tarpon for a hour on my lightest rod on the boat (watch the video!) His catch was one my all time light tackle fights!

A mixed bag of fish the last few days and I cant even begin to tell you how many sharks my clients 
have also caught! I can't complain about the sharks they are a blast to catch on the light tackle!
