Welcome to Shallow Water Guide Service – Where the Water’s Shallow and Our Roots Run Deep!
Captain Eric Young has spent his life chasing fish in South Carolina’s waters, developing an intimate knowledge of the rivers, creeks, and hidden honey holes.

Our waters are prime for Redfish, Spotted Seatrout, and Flounder, with opportunities to catch Bonnethead and Blacktip Sharks, Sheepshead, Black Drum, Rays, Shrimp, and more, depending on the season.

In addition to fishing, Captain Eric offers guided Marsh Hen and Waterfowl hunts in the fall and winter—contact him for details!
Trips are equipped for up to 2 passengers with all fishing gear provided. For hunting trips, proper licensing is required, and some species may require tags—check ahead or ask the captain.
