A Charleston, SC fishing club on Johns Island. Good friends. Great fishing. Local traditions.
The Stono River Fishing Club brings together anglers of every skill level from Charleston and the Lowcountry. We fish for all species on the Stono River and nearby waters, meet the 2nd Tuesday of every month at Gilligan's Seafood Restaurant on Johns Island, and run a monthly tournament with a new target species chosen by spinning the wheel. Whether you fish the flats or the deep water, you belong here. No membership or fees required.
