All Day on the Gulf Stream: A Full-Day Offshore Chase from Isle of Palms.
From the marina at Isle of Palms you’ll run offshore toward the Gulf Stream in search of the ocean’s cues—birds, bait, weed mats and hard edges—that indicate productive feeding lanes. Once there, the crew composes a spread and fishes a mix of tactics to chase a diverse catch on a full-day outing organized for small private parties.

A Full Spread: 8–10 Lines
When a productive patch appears the crew will set 8–10 lines to maximize hooking opportunities, running a multi-line spread tailored to the conditions.
Trolling, Deep-Dropping or Bottom Fishing
The charter is versatile: groups can troll, deep-drop, or head to shallower bottoms for a range of techniques aimed at different species and good table fare.
