The Geechie Dock in Mount Pleasant churns to life as the Amy Marie pulls into the wharf laden with the freshest fish in town. Mark Marhefka not only supplies the city’s top restaurants with their favorite fish but spreads the wealth through his dockside “CSF” (Community Sustained Fishery), which sells custom fillets straight from the boat, often cut by the fisherman himself. That’s as fresh as you can get ’em without a rod in your hand. Shem Creek Geechie Dock, Mount Pleasant; (843) 478-5078 or (843) 452-7352; www.abundantseafood@gmail.com
