Come out and join our passion for fishing from Hilton Head Island aboard the Sara Madison.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Video games in the galley incase the fish aren’t cooperating. Children under 12 must wear life vests while underway, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Feel free to bring your own snacks for a boost of energy when needed!

Your excursion begins aboard a 40’ Wellcraft 330 Coastal sportfishing vessel with room for 6 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials. There’s a bathroom on board for your convenience. Capt. Mike has rods and reels for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

There’s no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Be mindful that some species may have special rules or limited seasons. Simply ask and your captain can tell you more.

Some essentials to bring are sunblock (non-spray), a hat, bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Get in touch with Capt. Mike below and start planning your trip today!

8 Hour Trip AM - Midshore

Great day of fishing!!!

VERIFIED

Planned a 8 hour offshore trip for my nephews and Dad in mid-May. Captain Mike was phenomenal to work with and was a great/timely communicator as any questions came up. Boat was very comfortable for 6. We had some trouble getting the anchor to hold early on which kept our lines out of the water for a bit. To compensate, Captain Mike gave us an extra hour of fishing time at the back end. We were very appreciative! Caught some good sized sharks, a grouper and a remora. It was impressive that Captain Mike managed everything without a first mate. He definitely works his tail off for his clients. We all enjoyed the day and made some great memories. Thanks for a great trip Mike! Hope to cross paths again someday.

3 Hour Trip – Shark - 1:00 PM

By far the best fishing trip we’ve ever had!

VERIFIED

Today was absolutely incredible. And not because we caught the biggest fish we’ve ever caught but because every need was met. Everybody caught a few fish and I was with four teenage boys. Most importantly this boat had a toilet. If you’ve ever been out fishing and not had a toilet, you understand that it can be very uncomfortable not to have one and everybody used it on our trip. This boat also is a little bit bigger and if you’ve got seasickness like I do that can make all the difference. Mike did a great job of attending to all of us while we fished. We never ran out of bait. I cannot say enough good things. I would go out with Mike again anytime and highly recommend both his services and this boat.

We had a blast!

VERIFIED

Captain Mike was great! The conditions were less than optimum with 20 mph winds but our party of five adults were very comfortable on his boat. We all caught fish and had a great time, mostly because Mike worked his butt off baiting and taking our fish off. I highly recommend him for your next fishing adventure! Having a bathroom on board was a nice convenience.

Captain Mike

What a great experience my grandkids had today. Captain Mike changed the original plan we had today and boy are we glad he did!! He kept us on fish the whole time we were at “the spot”. He was great with my grandkids, two eight year olds and one ten. Next time I take a charter it will definitely be with Captain Mike.
