The Fishing Game
While plenty of visitors come to the island each year to bask in the sun or to take advantage of the island’s plentiful tennis and golf courses, many others may be passionate about the extensive Hilton Head Island fishing abundance which supplies more options than the average fishing adventure. The island enjoys the best of all universes, with fishing possibilities ranging from the deep ocean to estuaries, lagoons, and even freshwater lakes. The vast majority of the available fishing is saltwater, with options of fishing from the land or going out to sea for more exotic deep sea fishing. You can also collect oysters, go crabbing, or try to fetch shrimp—provided you follow regulations and go to the right locations. The Hilton Head fishing scene offers a big enough variety of fishing venues and options to satisfy any fishing devotee.
Just before venture out, the first thing you need if you’re over 16 is a South Carolina state fishing license. Without this, almost all fishing is illegal at any area. There are various places on the island where you can obtain them, including True Value and Wal-Mart.
The primary fishing areas include the Calibogue Sound, estuaries, tidal lagoons, freshwater lagoons, brackish lagoons, and the Atlantic Ocean. There are also some manmade freshwater lakes, most of them primarily holding rainwater as part of the island’s drainage system. Any lagoons or lakes located in the private gated neighborhood may be fished without a license if neighborhood policy allows it—check ahead of time to be sure. If the freshwater lagoon or lake is located outside of a private community, you must have a state license in order to fish it.
The bulk of the Hilton Head fishing scene, however, consists of the saltwater fishing. Those who prefer to fish onshore from a dock, pier, the beach, or the bank of an estuary may do so as long as they do not catch sharks (they must be released if caught) and do not intend to fish in an area set aside for swimming. There are also many charter fishing boats on the market from various Hilton Head Island fishing companies, some of which only go a short ways out and some of which emphasize shark fishing opportunities. Deep sea fishing enthusiasts will head out to the Gulf Stream, about 70 miles from the island shore, for fantastic fishing and a fabulous round trip on the boat of their choice.
Hilton Head fishing delivers a wide collection of fishing locales for spontaneous fishers and angling aficionados alike.
