I have been fishing the Georgia and South Carolina Coast for 30 years and guiding full time for 20 plus years. What you will get from me is a quality fishing trip, whether with fly rod or spinning tackle that is always a long time on the water for the rate. My half days run more like 5-6 hours and full days are over 8 hours. 4 hours on a half day just isn't long enough to fish. What you will not get from me is a quick trip to spots 5 minutes away that are fished heavily so can make it back to the dock in time for my next trip. I have guided through out the southeast as well as Alaska and the Bahamas. I have been instrumental in developing shallow water sight casting in Georgia and South Carolina and have been the first to introduce Tarpon fishing on fly rod to South Carolina and Georgia!!

fly fishing hilton head savannah and Little tybee

lil tybee inside first creek on left — lil tybee

paul jump — lil tybee first creek on left

fish eat in shallow water poon — this poon was belly crawling first creek on the left

tarpon are full blast now !!!!! Little tybee has been a bit covered up. If the beach isn’t showing fish going the south inlet and check the first creek on the left also check the northern slew that jacks cut goes to, many tarpon !!!

Fly and Light Tackle fishing Savannah, Beaufort and Hilton Head

Reds are out there doing there thing, but the tarpon bite is going off in places. One thing to remember when it comes to tarpon, they will drive you farggin batty !! The is why they are so prized, unlike a red fish that is in basically the same place everyday making them an easy target, tarpon are moving around the area more and keeping up with their patterns are a bit tougher.
