Operating out of Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, Charleston Saltwater Guide Co. specializes in providing their customers with ultimate light tackle spinning and fly fishing adventures. Born and raised in Charleston, Captain Crawford Bishop has been fishing the Charleston waters for over 20 years with lots of experience.

He welcomes you aboard his 18’ Hell’s Bay flats boat that can carry up to 3 guests fishing comfortably at the same time. This boat is perfect for skinny water fishing, but it can also take you farther from the shore smoothly. It comes with a Yamaha engine, top-notch navigational electronics, safety gear, and an ice-box.

The captain will show you his favorite inshore and nearshore fisheries, as well as flats, backcountry, and wreck hotspots. You’ll be targeting the likes of Tarpon, Jack Crevalle, Redfish, Trout, Black Drum, and Flounder. Please note that the “Silver King” is strictly catch and release. You’ll be either spinning or fly fishing for these amazing species.

All the needed fishing gear, fly rods (for 1 angler), live bait, and lures, are included in the price. You’re also welcome to bring your own gear. The charter covers fishing licenses, water, Gatorade, and even catch cleaning.

Just bring a good attitude, and you’ll have a day on the water that will not be forgotten!

Awesome January Fishing Trip
3 Hour Trip (AM) on January 7, 20221 adult1 child
Capt. Crawford was accommodating from the start. We were originally scheduled to go out at 7am, but due to tides, wind, and cold temps, he agreed to move to 1:30, and we fished until the sun went down. Crawford put us on to two honey holes…My son (11) and I pulled in 16 redfish, and kept three that tasted delicious. The majority of the fish were well over 23 inches and made for a great day of fighting fish (and even 4 snapped lines). Everything was perfect. Highly recommend, and we will be back.

Half Day with Captain Crawford
Half Day Trip (AM) on November 14, 20203 adults
Crawford was knowledgeable of the local waters, put us on some good fish, he was amazing with my 10 year old son, absolutely patient, and one of the best things was he really has a great touch for helping those he serves all while having the right skills to help alleviate stress during continuous mishaps or loss of fish. He has a fun sense of humor and very laid back! He strives to give you a great experience and he feels it’s important that he do most to all of the leg work all while giving you the opportunity for the big catch. It was an absolutely beautiful day! We truly enjoyed ourselves! Thank you!

Morning Half Day Trip with Captain Crawford
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 29, 20202 adults
Tremendous trip!! Cpt. Crawford exceeded expectations! To start, he picked us up at a location that was convenient for us, which saved us immense time. He also kept us on the water well beyond the allotted time. Cpt. Crawford was knowledgable and caring about the entire trip. We experienced not only a quality fishing experience but also a tremendous learning experience. We visited several spots and Cpt. Crawford explained the ecosystem and how to expertly fish the location. I highly recommend Cpt Crawford!! When we visit the area again, we will certainly fish with him again. A+++++++
