What anglers said about fishing in Hilton Head Island

Find a great captain with a good knowledge of the area and local conditions. Listen to the advice provided and you will be successful. What works where you normally fish might not work here. I fish frequently in NJ. Bait that will catch black drum there doesn’t work here. An experienced Capt will know that. Don’t try to be the Capt or guide.
Excellent
5.0 / 5

Bring sunscreen and plenty of water. Also if the charter offers to clean the fish and you have to travel a distance back home (several hours) not a bad idea to bring a food sealer

We fished in the bay because of the high winds. It would have been better if we could have fished the wrecks off shore. But that’s fishing!

Charter fishing is the ticket. Surf fishing is ok if you can get good access to the beach. Charter trip will get you on fish and there is some awesome water inshore and nearshore, you don't have to go offshore, but if you have the time and money, go for it.

Can’t complain when you catch 30 fish! Loves the action. Anglers who are experienced should be advised to use this app/booking service to secure expectations of what they would like to catch. Great experience all around.

Choosing the sunset trip allows you to see some beautiful, breathtaking views and makes for the perfect backdrop in your pictures of all your catches. It also isn’t as hot as other times during the day.
