Captain Kim Rocks!

VERIFIED

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

Capt. Kim was great with beginners

VERIFIED

Took my kids (who are new to fishing) out with Capt. Kim while here visiting family. He was very patient and took his time explaining why he chose the locations he did, the habits of the fish (and how they changed with the seasons), bait to use, and how this information can help catch the fish - and we did! My daughter caught a 30” red drum and my son caught a 25” black drum (along with other fish). It was the highlight of our week and we would love to go out with Capt Kim again!

We picked a tough time to fish. The tide was unfavorable at a tough time of year. But Capt. Kim worked hard — we moved around, tried different baits and fishing techniques. He explained thoroughly his thought process. We did catch a few, including a 28-inch red drum. He is a fish hunter!

Captain Kim was incredibly knowledgeable and patient throughout our trip. He not only put us on fish the entire time but also took the time to explain his strategy behind each spot and technique, which made the experience even more enjoyable. He was especially great with my son, showing extra patience and guidance as he worked to land a big one. We had an amazing time and will definitely be booking with him again on our next visit!
