Pawleys Island Fishing Charters In July
Whether looking for shark, tarpon, or inshore trips, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for when visiting Pawleys Island.
Tarpon Fishing
One of the most popular fishing experiences on Pawleys Island is tarpon fishing. Tarpon are typically found near the inlets and passes around Pawleys Island. These massive fish can weigh over 200 pounds and put up quite the fight when hooked.
The average size of Tarpon that frequent South Carolina average 80-100lbs and their dramatic acrobatics are sure to leave anglers with memories that will last a lifetime. Tarpon are a migratory species of fish that will begin to show up along the South Carolina coast in late May and they have been known to stick around thru the end of October, before migrating back to South Florida for the Winter.
Some of the most popular methods for targeting these fish include live bait fishing with cut bait or threadfin herring and large artificial lures. When hooked, Tarpon are known for their spectacular leaps out of the water, which often lead to them throwing the hook. For this reason, many anglers consider them to be the ultimate game fish. If you’re looking for a fight you’ll never forget, head to South Carolina and go after a Tarpon!

Another great option for those looking for a big fish experience is shark fishing. A variety of sharks call these waters home, so you’re sure to have a great time no matter what species you’re targeting.

These fishing charters take place in the calmer waters of shallow bays, creeks and inlets. We are typically targeting Redfish, Sea Trout, Black Drum, Sheepshead and Flounder using light spinning tackle with live or artificial baits.
Depending on the size of the crew, the 18ft flats boat or the 23ft bay boat will suffice for the inshore trips. The trips are customized to each anglers’ interest and skill level.
