Edisto Beach Fishing Reports

Edisto Beach Fishing Report

Inshore Fishing

The inshore waters around Edisto Beach continue to offer great fishing opportunities this time of year. Redfish and speckled trout remain active in the shallows, with many anglers finding success along the estuaries and creek mouths. The cooler water temperatures are keeping the fish more concentrated, making them easier to locate. Flounder fishing has slowed down a bit, but it's still possible to land a few with the right technique.

Offshore Fishing

Offshore conditions are ideal for those looking to target king mackerel, snapper, and grouper. Though the waters can be a bit colder, the action is strong, especially for seasoned anglers willing to venture a little further out. Captains are reporting good success with trolling and bottom fishing techniques.

Fishing Conditions

Water temperatures have cooled but remain favorable for both inshore and offshore fishing. Winds can be a bit brisk, but calm days are providing excellent fishing conditions. Tides are also favorable for redfish and trout, with the best bite happening on an incoming tide.
