Magical day on water

3/4 Day Trip3 adults

We booked with Captain Brian after reading his reviews. Our experience more than lived up to expectations. Our 12 year old son has been learning in surrounding small lakes in VA - being out in the ocean was a dream! Captain Brian took us to spots were the fish were biting! We did the 6 hour trip and this allowed us to make the most of different locations and catch different fish including red and black drum and weak fish. Captain Brian was knowledgeable, patient and gracious. At the end of the trip, he taught us how to properly filet the drum that we caught so we could enjoy them for dinner. A amazing day that we will treasure.

    Great Family Trip

    Half Day Trip • 4 adults • 2 children

    Captain Brian is great! Great with all levels of fishing! Sets up everything and helps you when you need it which makes it a fun, easy, and enjoyable. He tells you what you caught and about it as much as he can. Takes you to all of his known spots. The best thing about it is that you go chatch sharks! On our trip he told us how to do it when you have one on the line and if you need help he comes right over! He is happy to take a brake and take pictures of you with the fish. Captain Brian is the GOAT!

    Great Charleston Fishing trip

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    Captain Brian was First Class. He was ahead of scheduled, friendly and super prepared. From the first cast, he had us on the fish and was incredibly helpful and informative of the local history. He did an outstanding job of cleaning and packaging the fish with great recommendations on preparation.

    I appreciate your review James! It was fun fishing with you and your daughter today. Have a great time in Charleston, and look forward to the next time. Capt. Brian

    A great day on the water

    Half Day Trip • 3 adults

    Capt Brian was a wonderful guide. He put us on the fish at our first stop. Altogether, we caught 23 fish and were able to kept three. It was a fun and exciting spot. We also stopped at two other spots to try our hand at some flounder and other types of fish. Both were fun to fish and had plenty of bites, but we couldn't bring one on board. I will definitely be returning for another trip with Capt. Brian

    I appreciate your review, Bradley! Have a great summer, and look forward to our next trip. Capt. Brian

    Capt Brian is the man!!

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    My son and I had a great trip with Capt Brian. He put us on fish almost immediately and kept us on them the whole time. I honestly lost count of how many fish we caught. Redfish, tons of seabass, weakfish, stingrays. Highlight was a 35” bull red that my son caught- he can’t stop talking about it and will definitely remember that one for a while. Thanks Capt Brian!
