Great bait shop! Have one day fish passes for tourists. Thank you to the gentleman at the counter for recommending Cooper River marina! My boys (men rather) had a blast! Much love from Texas!

Usually, I love this store, but I called one day looking for a specific product and was told yeah, sure, we have a lot of those in stock. Well I drove there from Bees Ferry/Ashley River Road area and guess what?? They didn't have any. What a waste of my time.. was not happy.

Only live bait they had when I was there were mud minnows. Kind of pricey, but these days what isn't.

Very friendly service, even if you only buy a fishing license (only a $1 surcharge). Very impressive selection!

A Mecca for anyone who likes to fish! Travelers, tourists or new to fishing, you are welcome here. Easy to get to. Plenty of free parking. When you walk in you are warmly greeted. Plan extra time when you go because you will need it, there is so much to see. The store is laid out well and the adjacencies are perfect. I needed help with a new 2 pc surf rod and was helped with expert advise.Being a surf fishing fanatic and having been to many tackle shops along the east coast, I can tell you this in in the top 5.Recommended.

Love Haddrells. Need more of them in the city. Mt. Pleasant and West Ashley just aren't enough stores.

As a new resident of Charleston Haddrell’s has been an integral part of getting me out fishing and enjoying the low country. I’ve bought essentially everything from them. Surf rods/reel, crabbing equipment, hooks, weights, lures and other miscellaneous tackle. They’re very knowledgeable of local fishing locations, what fish are running, bait, and techniques. Previously I’ve only ever fished fresh water, the staff at Haddrell’s has flattened my learning curve a bit pointing me in all the right directions and even showed me some knots to use for heavier fluorocarbon. This place is all about making sure the customer gets the right equipment for their mission and has a great day on the water!

Was down fishing in Charleston for 4 days. I needed to find out what tackle and bait I should use. I stopped into Haddrell's and was greeted right away by Jacob, and again by Joe. I am totally impressed with the high-end, friendly, and knowledgeable custom service. I bought a few new rods; a bunch of tackle and had a blast!! I highly recommend Haddrell's for any and all of your fishing needs! I look forward to my next visit!

I enjoy surf fishing but having recently relocated from NY I need someone to point in the right direction. I turned to Haddrell’s for a suitable rod , reel and advise. I hooked up with a young man named Billy who was fantastic. He listened to my request and promptly put together a rod, reel , line and rigging. Gave me advice on bait, sinkers, and demonstrated how to tie proper knots. Friendly, knowledgeable and patient. Three days later I found my self on Folly Beach catching fish. Thanks to Haddrell’s and Billy.Highly recommend these folks

I visit Charleston quite often and my fishing is usually limited to charter boats. This time I stopped by Haddrell's and got some very good advice from Sam, one of the employees there. He asked a few questions and showed me several setups in differing price ranges so I had a number of good options. Ended up with a Penn Fierce 3 spinning combo and a few lures that worked great in some of the local creeks. The knowledge and helpfulness of staff made for a great experience.

Joe is very knowledgeable about the local fishery. He has no problem explaining ways to fish for certain fish and what tackle you need. He’s a great guy and needs a raise for all the hard work he puts in
