Captain Brian Moniz grew up exploring Charleston’s Ashley River, where he fell in love with the rhythm of its tides and the wildlife that call it home. A career in law enforcement allowed Brian to protect and serve that which he loved, and he proudly patrolled the Charleston coastline for nearly a decade. He has conducted drug interdictions, search and rescue missions, and high value asset escorts on Lowcountry waters. He also served as a Marine Patrol instructor.

As a US Coast Guard licensed captain, Brian has now decided to share his passion for the outdoors with you! Within and around the waterways of Charleston, Silver Beard Charters primarily targets the SC redfish population, and for this species, only practices catch and release. Harvesting opportunities may include trout, flounder, and sheepshead fish. You may also enjoy the thrill of hooking other native marine species, as encountered.

Silver Beard Charters specializes in near shore, and reef fishing. We also offer sunset cruises and dolphin sighting excursions. We look forward to seeing ya’ll soon!
