    Undoubtedly 5 Stars

    Half Day Trip – Inshore - 12:30 PM on September 27, 2025 • 2 adults

    My son and I had a great time catching fish with Captain Will! The weather was looking bad the morning of our trip and Captain Will was great with communication with us leading up to our trip. Fortunately the storm cleared and we were able to go out on the water. Captain Will took us to a few different spots. We caught a good number of a few different varieties. We kept a few and released a lot of them. Captain Will was very knowledgeable and gave us great tips. When we got back to shore Captain Will even filleted our fish for us. We had a great time and highly recommend!

    Full Day Trip – Inshore on April 12, 2025 • 1 adult

    Had an exceptional trip. Will has incredible knowledge of the local area and put me on some great fish. Absolutely wonderful time. Highly recommend booking a trip with him for a great day of inshore fishing. Incredibly patient and personable. Next time I come down St. Marys way and have time to fish, I am going with Willpower Charter.

    Fantastic day of fishing with a great guide

    Half Day Trip – Inshore on March 1, 2024 • 2 adults

    We had a fantastic day on the water with Capt Will. Caught sheepshead up to 11lbs, Speckled trout up to 20 inches, flounder, black drum, and a ton of big Redfish. Will was a great captain that put us on fish constantly, let us do our thing and stepped into help when we needed. Very knowledgeable about the local waters, gear was in great working order and boat was clean, well maintained and comfortable. Recommend 10/10!

Capt. Will runs trips out of St. Marys, GA. These waters are known for Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, and Flounder, and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing, trolling, or fly fishing. With significant experience in these waters, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him for a trip!
