    Full Day Trip on December 14, 2024 • 4 adults

    Had a fun fishing trip with Captain Stevie. Bad weather didn't stop us from chasing catfish and we were able to get a good solid cooler full, as well as a nice striper. It was a good time and lots of laughs.

    Steve is a down to earth captain with great knowledge of the lake. Though the catfishing was slow he did put us on some slab crappie. I will book again.

Captain Stevie's great-grandad was a guide in Florida, and the captain's grandad and dad have been guides on the Santee Cooper Lakes. For as long as he can remember, fishing has been a family passion. Come and enjoy a day on the Santee Cooper Lakes with your Captain Stevie!
