3 Hour Trip (PM) – Inshore on April 10, 2026 • 4 adults
Had awesome day with Thomas who grew up here & clearly knows his way round. Professional & safety conscious. Caught a variety of fish including sharks. Saw dolphin's. Ended up with my daughter catching a HUGE redfish (40lb). Also just the raw beauty of Hilton Head inlet is fantastic on a boat.

Great trip!
8 Hour Trip – Inshore/Near on April 27, 2026 • 3 adults
My father, brother, and I went on an all day fishing trip. While the weather was less than ideal, Captain Thomas made it a great experience. We caught 3 varieties of shark and red fish. Thomas knew plenty of places where reds love to hide. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking for knowledge guide.

Great Captain
4 Hour Trip – Inshore/Nearshore on November 13, 2025 • 2 adults
Captain Thomas did a great job putting us on fish. Between the 2 of us we caught 13 redfish up to 15 pounds and 10 keeper speckled trout (and several were big). His professionalism, enthusiam and plain old friendliness made our trip! We highly recommend Captain Thomas. You will not be disappointed!

We really enjoyed our 4 hour trip with Captain Thomas. He has a very nice setup, is very knowledgeable of the in shore and put us on fish all day. I would highly recommend him for your next fishing trip. Best charter we have been on in Hilton Head and we have been coming down here for over 30 years.
