Hilton Head Adventure Cruises & Fishing Charters
A Live One — Freeman 29 Charter Boat
Hilton Head Reef Fishing Charter
For our shorter "half-day" Hilton Head fishing charters on A Lɪᴠᴇ Oɴᴇ you can choose from Backcountry (Inshore) or Coastal (Ocean Nearshore) fishing locations. The inshore waters include the salt marsh tidal creeks, rivers, sounds (“bays”), and the coastal waters extend a few miles into the ocean. We can opt for calmer waters inshore as appropriate, and typically stay within sight of land on the shorter half-day trips even if we're on the ocean side.
During summer, it's important to note that most of the inshore action is sharks. Yes, we do catch other types of fish inshore, but sharks are often first to the hook and should be expected as a likely catch. The same natural baits and techniques we use to target fish like cobia, redfish, or tarpon are the same prey that appeal to sharks. We're fortunate to have a large population of small and mid-sized sharks that provide consistent action and excitement.
For anglers looking to fish for "something other than sharks", we do have options. On a short 4 ʜʀ trip, we can head out on the ocean, where we troll with artificial lures for fish that frequent the coastal waters like spanish mackerel, bluefish, ladyfish, and an occasional barracuda, cobia, or king mackerel. While some of these fish do occasionally visit inshore, the best opportunity for targeting them means being in the right place at the right time, and that's usually on the ocean side. For bigger sportfish and game fish like cudas, cobia, and kings, you can expect a significant increase in success a bit further out than our usual 4 ʜʀ trip range, so if you have your heart set on big fish like that, it's really worth your while to do a longer trip that gives us the most options. This "half-day" reservation gives you the choice to upgrade to 5 ʜʀs, and we have other trips available that are 6+ ʜʀs located here.
A Lɪᴠᴇ Oɴᴇ is a Freeman 29 high performance fishing boat that offers tons of space, shade, and the best ride around. As one of Hilton Head's fastest charter boats we can leverage that advantage to fish more distant spots or to maximize fishing time on shorter trips.
With the speed and comfort of A Lɪᴠᴇ Oɴᴇ, we can fish remote locations that most other charters usually limit to much longer trips.
Our range on a 5 hour charter includes more distant wrecks and reefs such as the Betsy Ross and Eagles Nest for those of you seeking an ocean adventure. You can also choose this 5hr option for an inshore trip with increased fishing time or range over the standard "half day" (4hr) charter.
For groups with 6 guests or those with younger children, we suggest instead one of our Backcountry / Inshore trips:
Half Day Backcountry / Inshore Charter
Family Shark Adventure Charter
Jr Anglers Fishing Charter
