Your guides, U.S. Coast Guard-certified Captains Jake Parker and Jason Hazel, are lifelong fishermen who know the waters of Hilton Head Island like it's running through their veins.
Wanna go where the fish are really biting? Let us know what you want to catch. We'll take you to one of nearly 100 different hotspots where every day is a new adventure.
Hilton Head is more than a fishing spot — it's a hidden gem of natural beauty. Come enjoy its wonders, from peaceful backwater tidal creeks and rivers to unique wildlife and vibrantly-colored spartina grass marshes, while connecting with wildlife in a way few locals ever experience.
We love teaching beginners of all ages how to spot and catch bait, rig their line, cast accurately, and reel in their first catch. Come as a spectator, leave an angler!
