Cody Childers

Member since April 2022 North Myrtle Beach, United States
Background
Growing up in the Carolinas all I have ever known is to hunt and fish. With my passion for the outdoors I wanted to create a business where I could share it with others and put them in the best possible position to be successful while fishing with us. I want to share what I have learned over the past 20 years of fishing along with providing an unforgettable experience on the water.
Techniques
At Tail Finder Fishing Charters we use light tackle to target different sport fish such as flounder, red drum, black drum, speckled sea trout, and Spanish mackerel. Early in the year we target flounder by jigging in the creeks which is very fast pace and probably my favorite. Most other fishing will be on the bottom and everything will be with light tackle and hands on.
