Unfortunately, sometimes in spite of our best efforts and intentions, the fish simply refuse to bite.. On behalf of Captain Shad’s, I humbly and sincerely apologize for any disappointment you suffered.. We too are always saddened if customers do not catch anything after all the effort we put into each and every charter.. Again, my deepest apologies.. Lisa, Captain Shad’s Coastal Charters

My husband and I were down visiting the area for my birthday and a family trip, so we decided we wanted to do a fishing charter. We got SO lucky to have found Captain Shad! We had so much fun with him, trying all the different areas and all of the different set ups he had. Unfortunately, my husband won (for only the 3rd time ever) in our little fishing contest, but that was only because Captain Shad put him in the right place. 😊 we would highly recommend and come back for Captain Shad’s charters!...

First time trolling. Captain Shad is very knowledgeable. He informed us of the safety rules, showed us how to reel the line in when there was a fish on the line. I can sum it up in Captain Shad’s words. Paraphrasing of course. “I don’t sell fishes, I sell good times while fishing! had a great time. I would definitely recommend Captain Shad. You will not regret it! Pictures above are before we started getting bites. Review other pictures from Captain Shad. They tell the story. Later... More

We didn’t catch much, but that definitely wasn’t for the lack of Captain Shad trying!! We had a blast out on the water with the him. He was fun, told us about some history in the area, got to know us, played good jams and kept us involved in everything. We can’t wait to come back and book with him again! Thanks for helping us make sure great memories Captain Shad!!
