George Westermeyer5.0VerifiedHard day but good times.
6 Hour Trip – Inshore on June 14, 2026 • 4 adults • 3 childrenIt was a hard day for fishing in the rivers. We caught one little red fish. I have to say though, I didn't see ANYONE catching anything out there at all. So Capt. Matt took us to do some shark fishing and my boys had a blast. Capt Matt when above and beyond his obligation for time to ensure all three of my boys were able to put a shark (or a huge sting ray) in the boat. thanks again Capt Matt. The boys are still talking about the trip!
James Nichols4.7VerifiedGood trip. Catching the shark highlight for kids
6 Hour Trip – Inshore on July 28, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 childrenWe had a good start with everyone catching something under the bridge. The grassy areas and docks we visited were not hitting for the next few hours but we moved along after giving each a try. Caught some oysters, a brick, and a few small fish here and there. Then found a red fish hole that was great and hooked 3 sharks, two of which we landed, to end the day. Kids had a good time with the sharks and red fish.
Abraham Paredes5.0VerifiedAmazing fishing trip with a n awesome captain!

Phil Taber5.0VerifiedGreat time!
4 Hour Trip (AM) on June 30, 2026 • 3 adults • 2 childrenWe had a great time on our first salt water fishing trip. My 11 year old and 8 year old had a blast while Captain Matt did a great job finding us fish on an admittedly unusual day. The highlight was my 11 year old getting the chance to catch a shark! We would definitely recommend this charter!!
Sara Holbrook5.0VerifiedGreat for novice fisherwomen
2 hour shark fishing May-Oct on June 10, 2026 • 4 adultsThis shark fishing trip was succesful and was the perfect spur of the moment trip for a group of ladies that know nothing about fishing. The captains communication was very clear prior to the trip and he had us fishing (and catching) almost immediately. Would highly recommend to people of all fishing abilities
Nancy And Tom Sargent5.0VerifiedCelebrating our 35th Anniversary
4 Hour Trip (AM) on September 22, 2026 • 2 adultsWe had a great trip with Matt. Caught a lot of fish and the finale was two sharks out by Ft Sumter. The boat was spacious and he had all the gear. He was a great tour guide as well. Thanks for a great trip Matt. We will be back!!
Martin Ellison5.0VerifiedThe boys loves it
4 Hour Trip (AM) on July 10, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 childrenThe boys (11&12 yrs. old) caught some nice sand bar sharks and saw dolphins and they havent stopped talking about it since. Captain Matt was great and was able to get us on some nice fish. We cant wait to come back and do it again.
