Explore nearshore wrecks and reefs of Hilton Head Island with Fin-Seeker Charter! This year-round charter is run and operated by Captain Todd, who’s been fishing professionally for over 30 years. He spent the past 5 years in the Hilton Head area, as he fell in love with amazing fishing opportunities this place offers.
Capt. Todd is ready to share decades of experience with you and provide a fun and enjoyable trip. Whether you’re joining with your friends or kids, there’s something for a group of anglers here. In case you don’t have much experience with catching fish, it’s about time to get the hang of it.
You’ll be fishing on a 22’ Grady White boat that accommodates up to 4 guests. She’s powered by a 250 HP Yamaha engine and provides a safe and smooth ride, wherever you go.
Inshore spots are always a safe bet for any trip, while nearshore trips are weather permitting. You can go after Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, Sheepshead, Spanish Mackerel and test your luck with Cobia, Black Seabass, and Shark. You’ll mostly rely on drift and bottom fishing, but you can always ask the captain to show you more techniques.
Captain Todd covers your fishing equipment and licenses. Once the trip is over, before you leave the dock, he’ll also clean your catch free of charge. This way, you only need to bring your snacks and drinks, and you’re ready to go.
Fill up your cooler with tasty fish, with the help of Fin-Seeker Charters. Tight lines!

Capt. Todd got my son and I out for a memorable day of fishing and brought back a few for the pan. Courteous, flexible around the weather, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

3 Hour Trip – Shark (Sunset) on August 5, 2022
We had an AMAZING time with Captain Todd! After a significant storm, just one hour earlier, we were able to get out on the water and accomplish what we set out to do…catch some sharks! Captain Todd is super knowledgeable and really teaches you what to look for. We reeled 5 into the boat (Bonnet, Black Tip and Sharp-nose) and we had a 6th (a Bonnet) that got away because he played too many games with the chum box. The trip was exhilarating and capped off with some dolphin playing and a picturesque sunset. Do not miss this one! Captain Todd only goes out a few times a week so book him now while you can. The best!!!!
