Rainmaker Fishing Charters 

Captain Tim is everything you’d want in a charter boat captain. Prompt communication, local knowledge, local networking, and a personality complimented by an obvious background in Marine Biology. He was quick to point out several different species of marine life while on the water, and had encyclopedic knowledge of the species. We departed the docks promptly and were on the bait and fishing within the first 45 minutes of the trip. We were hooked up and fighting fish immediately, catching and releasing several bull reds and sharks. Once the tide went slack we moved out and looked for birds capitalizing on the leftovers of the Spanish Mackerel feeding frenzy. We put several nice Mackerel on ice and treated the family that evening to fresh blackened Mackerel tacos with mango salsa. Don’t hesitate, book yourself a trip with Captain Tim! You won’t be disappointed. @capt_timmy

We had an amazing time on our 3-hour shark fishing trip! It was an unforgettable experience and worth every penny. Captain Tim was fantastic with the boys. He kept them engaged the entire trip and made sure they were constantly reeling in sharks and other fish. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving his guests the best experience possible—he worked incredibly hard to make sure each of them caught something. Not only is Captain Tim a great guide, but he’s also extremely knowledgeable and happy to share his expertise throughout the trip. His passion for fishing really shows, and it made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for an exciting fishing charter with an experienced captain who goes above and beyond, look no further. We will definitely be booking with Captain Tim again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for an incredible day on the water!

Captain Tim was very welcoming, and his communication leading up to the trip was excellent. The boat was clean, well-maintained, and a perfect size for four people plus the captain. We had six people plus the captain, which made things a little tight, and we were limited to four lines in the water at a time to avoid tangles. The fishing started strong, with a variety of different catches during the first hour. Once the tide started coming in, we moved to a second spot to see what we could find. Unfortunately, the second location didn’t produce as well. There were plenty of baitfish schooling around, but we just couldn’t get the target fish to bite. We finished the day with some slow trolling and managed to catch another three or four fish. Overall, it was a great trip, and Captain Tim was professional, friendly, and easy to work with.

We had less than ideal conditions with strong wind, rough water and moving tide. Tim told us almost the only thing biting that day were sharks (which most of us were ok with), but Tim still worked hard to keep the bait and location fresh and set up multiple rods to cover all possibilities. We ended up catching about 12 fun small sharks and one large black tip.

It was a perfect introduction to inshore fishing. Tim was knowledgeable and friendly and patient with our kids. We stayed nearshore as some of the family gets very seasick and we still had an amazing experience catching several fish and sharks. We would absolutely go out again with Tim if we ever were back in SC.

Tim had us on the fish all day. We started looking for tarpon and were able to land a great big silver with lots of shark action in between. Then headed off to catch some lunch and finally boated a big keeper cobia. Great time. Tim worked hard to keep bait in the water all of the time and filleted up the fish at the end. Awesome.

My crew had an awesome time we cought several different types of fish and Captain Tim kept us on them all day. Had a great overall experience. I would recommend this trip 10 out of 10.

we caught several different types & size sharks, toad fish etc. Captain was awesome. Captain was very knowledgeable, and helpful throughout trip.

Super professional courteous, made the kids feel great, found fish, complete pleasure to talk to the entire time!
