Charleston Fishing Trips is a local, family-owned fishing charter business led by Captain Jason Davis, a Charleston native who grew up fishing the inshore waters and was launching boats on his own by age nine. Jason holds a U.S. Coast Guard Masters 100-Ton Captain’s License along with First Responder, CPR, and First Aid certifications, and has guided both inshore and offshore trips since he was nineteen years old.

The business offers inshore fishing charters in Charleston’s shallow coastal waters, targeting trout, redfish, and other species around bays, estuaries, and nearshore reefs — accessible, productive fishing well suited to any skill level. For something different, Charleston Fishing Trips also runs shark fishing charters, combining the excitement of landing a shark with a scenic cruise through Charleston Harbor past historic landmarks and waterfronts.

Guest reviews are consistently glowing, with families and repeat clients describing Captain Jason as a “salt of the earth” guide who’s fantastic with kids, complete with dad jokes to match the serious fishing. Guests frequently mention reeling in their first catch within moments of the bobber hitting the water, along with Jason’s hands-on teaching, from proper fish handling to safe release technique for fragile species like large redfish.

For families and anglers of any skill level looking for a relaxed, professional, and genuinely fun fishing charter around Charleston Harbor and Mount Pleasant, Charleston Fishing Trips offers a highly reviewed operation with Captain Jason Davis.
