Captain Kim Rocks!

VERIFIED

2 Hour Trip – Inshore (PM) on July 9, 2025

This is the first time we’ve ever been to Hilton head South Carolina. Captain Kim was a gentleman from start to finish. He was very prepared, gave great fishing tips, and genuinely wanted us to catch fish and have a good time. My wife son, and I all caught fish and had a great time. My wife, who normally doesn’t go fishing with us much caught the biggest fish which was a 19 inch spot fish. Captain Kim fillet the fish for us immediately after we got off the boat and we enjoyed eating the fish she caught for lunch. I definitely recommend Captain Kim and would absolutely do it again. The best tip that I would recommend when you go fishing that Captain Kim gave us was when you get a bite to simply pull up on the rod straight up into the air and set the hook. I kept making the mistake of reeling and pulling at the same time which makes it harder for the fish to keep in their mouths and more than likely. I was probably pulling the bait right out of the fish‘s mouth instead of setting hook. So remember, simply pull up the rod and you will get more fish. Thank you, Captain Kim and thank you for making our vacation special. God bless you and your family. Ryan, Erika, and Anderson Brown Moseley, VA

3 Hour Trip – Inshore (AM) on July 25, 2025

This was the best chartered fishing experience I’ve had! Captain Kim was highly knowledgeable and patient in explaining what to expect and what to do to ensure we secured our catche”S”! He knew where to go and was spot-on with where to cast so that was little time between catches. We can’t wait to book with him again, and even make a special trip just to fish with him in the fall or winter!

We had an amazing time on our two hour trip! Captain Kim does an incredible job at making sure you have everything you need to have fun. He was very patient but also mindful of your limited time. He did an amazing job putting us on the fish even with the temperamental weather. Thank you for an amazing experience! I highly recommend booking with Captain Kim. I will definitely be back in the future!

2 Hour Trip – sesonal Inshore (AM) on August 1, 2025

We are 3 novice fisherman that did a 2 hour trip with Captain Kim. Captain Kim was great. He taught us exactly what to do and helped us through the process. He was very patient with us. He is very knowledgeable about the waters and put us on fish right away. We had a few get away from us, but caught a black drum. We would definitely go again with him soon!

2 Hour Trip – sesonal Inshore (AM) on July 22, 2025

Captain Kim was fantastic for our family. My wife and I took my kids out for my son’s birthday. He was very knowledgeable about the area and the fish. He also took it slow and steady when my 7 year old daughter was getting scared. We all caught fish and the kids had a great time. I highly recommend Captain Kim for any families with young kids.
