Low country in shore for Redfish and Spotted Sea Trout
Half Day Trip – Multi Species - 9:00 AM on April 9, 20264 adults

Cpt. Tom delivered! I asked him if he could put us on fish so we could have lots of action, and find a few we could have for dinner and he did just that! Was ready with the boat in the water when we arrived, and had everything we needed for a great time fishing. I estimate we caught over 30 fish, even with the cold and windy conditions! He knows his stuff and it was great to spend a day on the water with him. Highly recommend him for your trip! Classy guy that Cpt. Tom.

We did a half a day inshore charter with captain melton and had an amazing time. Caught a few different species and hooked on some big redfish. He made sure we had bait on the whole time and was really nice and a great captain. 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone
