KEEPING IT REEL

“Stress is caused by not fishing enough.”

WHEN YOU’D RATHER BE FISHING

Strolling out on one of the dykes at Spring Island visitors are, no doubt, awestruck and grateful for the beautiful marsh and river vistas. The iconic Lowcountry setting is breathtaking even on a bad day. Ladies fishing groups, couples spending a quiet afternoon together, the solo watermen throwing a line out in the quiet morning air, eager grandchildren with enthusiastic tactics – all are drawn to the water and fishing of Spring Island. Freshwater ponds, saltwater ponds and of course the expansive rivers and creeks that surround Spring Island offer numerous options for catching.

Members can spend the day on the water, drop their whole fish off at the restaurant and return for a reservation that evening to a specially prepared meal, by Spring Island’s Chef, of their own fresh catch. A more gratifying and lavish service won’t be found anywhere else.
