​Captain Clay's Charters


Keepin' it reel.

Here in the Lowcountry, there's no better way to enjoy the day than on the water. Captain Clay's Charters offer you the best access to some of the most beautiful waters along the Atlantic seaboard on a comfortable, safe chartered vessel.
Whether you want to catch fish, check out the local wildlife, or just cruise around, Captain Clay has you covered!
Fishing Charters

We can accommodate up to 5 anglers on Captain Clay's 22' Pathfinder bay boat, equipped with a 150 HP 4-stroke outboard engine, GPS, fishfinder, and plenty of cooler space. You can try bottom fishing, spinning, jigging, and drift fishing. We'll chase down redfish, seatrout, flounders, sheepshead, spadefish, sharks, and the occasional stingray! Anything you catch is yours, and Captain Clay can help you clean and filet your catches at the dock! All you gotta do is show up ready to fish and we'll take care of the rest
