"What a great few days we had with Captain Tim. Knowledgeable, kind, patient and determined doesn't even sum it up!! He really loves to fish and loves even more to see his clients succeed!! We were suppose to have three (3) days of fishing, but weather was going to be bad on third day. He made sure we still had a great time in Beaufort, SC with numerous suggestions including places to bank fish. His pricing is fair and doesn’t try and rob the bank. It’s been a long time since I have met someone who truly loves what they do!! Please book with him and see for yourself!! I will totally be back along with my nephew!!"

"Captain Tim is professional, courteous and in the know when it comes to what’s biting and where. After multiple fishing trips with Captain Tim I’ve come to expect nothing less than a strong bite, some great fish pics, a good laugh and an overall memorable experience. I cant wait to go fishing again!"

"My wife and I are new to the area and have never been fishing for Redfish before. Captain Tim set us up! He put us right on fish and taught us what and what not to do. It took us a few fish to get used to how to set the hook, but he coached us through that and we had a great time! Captain Tim was just great for us. He gave us a lot of information about the area and how to catch redfish, trout and flounder. Can't wait to do it again."

"Tim took my wife and I out for a half day trip and I can say that at every turn he went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. And we had a great time. I’d recommend this to anyone. A+ all the way around."

"Captain Tim is who you want to put you on fish in the Beaufort area. Great guide with impressive knowledge and a pleasure to spend the day with. We caught some nice size redfish, flounder and trout to round out a low country grand slam."
