Charleston Redfish Action with Top Predator Adventures - Dean Scores! fishing report coverpicture

March 10, 2026

Light tackle thrills await on Charleston's productive waters!

Action-packed day from the get-go! Dean and I headed out early morning this spring for some prime inshore fishing around Charleston waters. The conditions were set up perfect for what Top Predator Adventures does best - putting y'all on some solid redfish action! With our gear rigged and ready, we focused on drift fishing and bottom fishing techniques with light tackle to target the redfish that Charleston's waters are known for. These inshore flats over yonder are perfect for this style of fishing, and Dean was able to get into some good redfish action throughout the morning. The light tackle setup really makes these fish feel like they're fixin' to tear your arms off! We wrapped up the trip with great catches and smiles all around. If you're thinking about getting out on Charleston's waters for some serious inshore fishing action, our Half Day Guided Fishing Trip is perfect for targeting redfish, trout, and more around these productive Charleston flats.

We left the dock at 7:30 with a livewell full of mullet and shrimp in search of speckled trout and redfish. We were able to pull 6 keepers from our first spot as the tide dropped out. As the tide started coming back in, we added some nice size black drum and some big inshore reds.
