2 hour Shark Fishing on June 21, 20262 adults

We had an amazing experience with Jonathan as our fishing guide! He arrived right on time and was extremely knowledgeable about the area we were fishing in. He shared interesting information about the local waters and made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. Jonathan was patient, helpful, and always ready to lend a hand. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to reel in an incredible 33-inch redfish, which was definitely the highlight of the trip! His passion for fishing and dedication to making sure his guests have a memorable experience really stood out. If you’re looking for a professional, friendly, and knowledgeable guide, I highly recommend Jonathan. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely book another trip with him in the future!

Perfect Captain for Fishing Trip
3 hour - 2:00 PM on November 16, 20256 adults

Boat is a little beauty, and the captian Jhonny was very knowledgeable about the perfect spots to fish at any time of day, any time of year. Not only has he shown everyone a great view on the creek we fishes at but made sure the fish were biting before hand. He conversated with everyone not making it feel like he’s doing a job, but more like hes making us feel like we his family. Fising since he was 3, he has alot to learn from and he’s not one to sit quiet and let you make mistakes. He will tell you how to cast, reel, the way to pull and how to angle yourself to not let the fish off the like. Everyone on Board has caught a fish, the biggest being 28 inches. I will be most definitely be boarding with him again.

Ever since he was a toddler, Capt. Jonathan has been fishing in the Charleston area with his dad. At around 14 years old, the captain decided that becoming a professional charter captain was his main goal, and 10 years later, through hard work and dedication, he made that wish come true. Now he's living his dream and can't wait to share his passion and energy with his guests everyday!
