How many will there be and how far out are you willing to go? If you're staying in-shore, I'd recommend calling Cap't Rick Hiott (he's always on these forums). If you have 4+ people, or are looking to go offshore, then I'm sure he could give you some recommendations.

What do you want to fish for and WHEN would be the most important thing. The inshore fishery is year round, Spottail Bass, Speckled Trout, Sheephead, Flounder can all be caught at any time of the year. Tarpon, Jacks and Sharks will be available from April - November. Capt. Rick on here or Capt. John Fuss with Holy City Charters (803) 417-3052. He even does Flyfishing for Reds!
For Offshore you can go from one extreme to the other. Right now there is very little action at the Gulf Stream, a few Wahoo and Blackfin are beig caught, but April will start the annual run of Dolphin (Mahi-Mahi) along with the billfish (Sailfish, white Marlin, Blue Marlin) The bottom fishing is pretty much closed right now, but Grouper will open in May, Black Sea Bass will open in June. Or you can go live bait fishing in April for King Mackeral and the occasional Cobia that will show up ahead of the May / June run.
For a nice 30' Center Console that is tough to beat Knot @ Work Charters with Capt. Robert Olsen 843-442-7724. Moving up would be Capt. Mark Brown on the TEASER II Charleston Fishing The best Bottomfishing Charter in Charleston! Or if you want to spend the big bucks, and go chase billfish Call Capt. Ben Polk on the JABEZ a 55' Jarret Bay Jabez Offshore Fishing Charters - Charleston, South Carolina

The biggest distinction you need to make is what type of fishing you would like to do. That will get you actual, useful suggestions.

I personally can't help you as I am not familiar with any of the captains in this area like I am at home. Not knowing anything else I'd recommend the JABEZ simply because I know the fellow who built her.
