Skip trying to find a fishing pier, and save and spend the money on a fishing charter.

Caught some eating fish and just good fighting fish. Threw good fighters back for another day!

Hilton Head with its shallow flats is probably the best for new anglers and kids.
Keith Link
We caught good size fighting sharks. We were able to have them cook up the fish at the boathouse.

Plan accordingly with the ebb and flow of the tide. This will dictate your success rate.
Scott Steen
You must get on a charter with Captain Kim immediately! What a great job he did as Captain!
Benjamin Wade
Enjoy the moments, take in the views, and start planning your next trip full of memories.
Carrie Massengill
Very hot time of year to be fishing. Other than the heat. It was great. We had fun!!
Sean Jones
Book at least a 4 hour trip. It allows the captain to get you in the proper spots.
Jeremy Bridges
research was fish are in season when you book so you have an idea of what you will catch.
Barry Benedict
Make plans to go to Skull Creek Boathouse afterward to have them cook your fish!!
Curtis Christianson
Was a tough spot right after some storms but our Captain Craig got us into some fish!
Greg Soltis
Fishing in the bay is a lot more fun than in the creeks and rivers if you have a large group
Catherine Messerly
Offshore fishing was great for us. Not everyone seemed to have the same successes.

Take hats and sunglasses and a towel or light jacket , also use the restroom beforehand

We are first time fishers with children! Absolutely the best tour possible- definitely recommend!

Not the best time of year for the fish we were targeting but Capt. Kim got us on fish.

This charter has it all! Just bring appropriate clothing and he will take care of the rest!

Other then the bite not being the best this time of year everything else about the trip was great

Late September was a great time to fish. The weather was still warm, but not blistering hot.

Pay attention or ask your captain about the tides and times for the fish you're looking for
Taj Pietkiewicz
Rating OK as we didn’t catch any fish, but had some bites. Conditions were challenging however.

Go to the north side of the island there are much more fish and it is a better experience.
Michael Mattingly
This charter took care of all of the fine details and made for a great experience.

Middle of summer not ideal time but I knew that going in. Fall was a better and caught more.
Sean Ring
Dress appropriate with hats and a light long sleeve shirt. Bring plenty of water.

Probably would say to ask your Captain what is best fish to fish for when your there.

Don’t be afraid if you don’t have experience; Captain Buddy’s charter will take care of you!

Went on 4th of July, would not recommend that date. Water was crowded.
Boat and Guide were Great!
