So Good We Will Book Again!
4Hr Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on June 15, 20265 adults

We booked a 4 hour inshore and targeted reds. All 4 of us had a blast! Everyone caught something and there was even a 13lb 33inch red landed! Would highly recommend! Very knowledgeable and a better cast than all of us! Extremely professional and personable also. Overall, an amazing trip and we are already planning both an inshore and ocean trip next year! Thank you Capt Parker and Palm State Fishing for an absolutely amazing experience!

Laidback and patient!
3Hr Inshore Trip on June 23, 20262 adults

My husband and I went out with Parker this morning - I have literally not picked up a rod and reel in 35+ years! My husband fishes, so he wasn’t an issue, but Parker was so patient with me and taught me how to fish! And he found the fish, too! We had four redfish in the line within the first 20 minutes! Super cool and laidback guy - we would 100% recommend him and will look him up again when we are back at Edisto Beach!

4Hr Inshore Trip - 12:00 PM on July 27, 20262 adults1 child

Half day afternoon trip nearshore. Got bait quickly then right to fishing. Captian kept us baited and tied up rigs while keeping us on the fish. Plan to go again.

Parker was the man! We did a 4 hour inshore trip, we caught several different styles of fish, he was great with our 12 year old and he kept us out there an extra 30 minutes to try and hall in a big red fish, it didnt work but we really appreciated his efforts! We will be back!!
