Tails of the Tides Lowcountry Fishing Charters is a top notch inshore guide service located just outside of Charleston, SC. Owned and operated by Captain Caleb Andrews, Tails of the Tides Lowcountry Fishing Charters is dedicated to providing its customers with safe, fun and affordable inshore fishing adventures.  

As your captain and guide, my top priority is to provide you with a memorable day on the water. I will work relentlessly to make sure you have as many opportunities as possible to catch fish. Together we will work on improving the necessary skills that will leave you with at least one special lasting moment to cherish going forward; and hopefully that means a “hero shot” with the fish of a lifetime!

There are two ways to approach inshore fishing. In my humble opinion, the ultimate option is to actively pursue fish by way of sight fishing using a fly rod, or light tackle spinning rod. The other way is to target different areas by dropping bait. There are many variables which will determine our course of action on the water, but ultimately, sight fishing is our game.

The lowcountry marsh surrounding Charleston, SC offers an amazing inshore fishery that provides world class sight fishing opportunities. Sight fishing is a technical style of fishing that requires the angling team to lay eyes on the fish prior to casting. Though this style of fishing does not always yield as many “fish to hand”,  it does offer some of the most spectacular rewards and allows the angler to experience the lowcountry’s fishery from an amazing perspective. When sight fishing, we are, in essence, hunting fish. I have had the opportunity to put quite a few friends, family members, and clients on their first saltwater fish on the fly rod and it is a truly an awesome spectacle of ordered chaos when things finally come together.

I am a licensed USCG captain and Eagle Scout with over 20 years of fly fishing experience. In 2012, an engineering job moved me to South Carolina, where my passion for fishing and being on the water led me to exploring the inshore marshlands of the lowcountry.  For the past 6 years I have worked hard putting in countless hours to unlock some of the secrets our amazing fishery has to offer.  With my passion for fishing, professional experience guiding, and knowledge of our local waters I will provide a most memorable experience exploring the amazing sight fishing opportunities the lowcountry marsh provides. I have had a great deal of success in a relatively short amount of time due to my relentless pursuit of the fish and passion to identify subtle details within our complex and difficult fishery that ultimately make the all the difference.
