Specializing in 2 client trips 

Born and raised in NC I'm from a fishing family.
I've been a full time guide since 1987 and have vast experience helping clients catch different species in three states ( South Carolina,  Virginia & Tennessee ) I also guided big game hunts in Montana for a month every fall from 1997 - 2020.
Winyah Bay is a diverse fishery covering 520,000 acres. The Bay is fed by four major river systems: the Black, Sampit, Waccamaw and Pee Dee.

These waters are known for Redfish ( bull reds ) , tarpon , speckled trout,  flounder, sheepshead and more . Top quality spinning gear by Penn, Shimano & Florida Fishing Products is provided for all redfish and tarpon fishing.
Tarpon fishing requires patience and tremendous skill if hooked up with a silver king. This isn't Florida tarpon fishing. It's a major accomplishment to hook up and land a Winyah Bay Tarpon.  We have a good run of BIG TARPON.  That said bring patience and a positive attitude if booking a tarpon trip.

There is a Yeti soft side cooler with ice onboard for your beverages and food. ( BRING plenty of water or re-hydrating sport drinks. Soft drinks with sugar are not recommended in hot weather. Alcohol is NOT allowed .

Your excursion begins aboard a 19' Mako center console . The Classic Mako is a deep hull design proven to be seaworthy and safe. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures and fresh mullet for big drum ( redfish ) I'm in constant contact with another local guide who is a great friend and one of the most seasoned,  respected guides in the industry. This puts odds in your favor for a great day of fishing.
I truly enjoy meeting people who live life to the fullest.  Appreciate every sunrise 🌅 and sunset 🌇
I always give 110 % towards a successful and safe day of fishing.
Success is attempting to reach a goal. Failure is never making the attempt…my motto I live by.

Look forward to spending a day with you on beautiful Winyah Bay.
