Do something different this time.

After years of running Fish Junkie Charters, a successful nearshore and offshore charter business, Captain Craig Brown is ready to share his true passion with you. Sight fishing in the beautiful salt marsh of Savannah, Georgia.

We offer full and half day sight fishing charters for up to 2 anglers. Specializing in sight fishing with fly and light spin tackle, you will be experiencing Georgia’s Coastal Empire the way it was meant to be…standing on the bow of a skiff. Gliding across flats, slipping between oyster bars and stalking thick spartina shorelines we will be sight fishing for redfish, black drum and speckled trout. (Depending on the season Tarpon, Cobia, Jack Crevalle and more may also be targets.)  We also offer instructional trips, where we will spend the day improving your flats fishing and deepening the addiction.

For Capt. Craig,
fishing is more than just catching fish. It’s about what you see, feel and learn along the way. It’s about making and sharing memories. It’s about ending the day with just a little more than when you started it. With a reputation as an excellent teacher, Capt. Craig is committed to sharing what he has learned over the years and working hard to make sure you get the adventure you came for.

You’ll be fishing from the bow of a custom built Evergladez skiff by Spear Boatworks. It’s a custom built ‘magic carpet’ designed to provide a soft dry ride on the way to the grounds and then let you fish in less than 6" of water when you get there! With the ability to cross big water and fish super skinny flats, you’ll be seeing fish in no time.

The beginning of your Savannah Sight Fishing adventure is just a click away.

    This adventure is just a longer version of the half day. The extra time allow us the ability to make longer runs to some incredible and remote fisheries, and experience the area in a more comprehensive way. This trip is roughly 6 hours of fishing and allows another hour or so to stop and enjoy lunch either on the boat or at one of the many waterfront restaurants. This trip does not run on weekends due to the overwhelming boat traffic.

Truthfully, I have always just loved to fish. I remember renting little jon boats with 9hp tiller motors to catch Flounder in the back bays with my dad from when I was 4 and slogging through waist-high mud to get to a little creek and catch Catfish after Catfish after school. Since then its been a non-stop ride raising 2 boys and chasing fish. From fly fishing for 6" Brookies in a Poconos stream to chasing Stripers up and down the beach to spearfishing weed lines in the canyon, I just love to fish and catch fish!
