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 and Light Tackle fishing, Hilton Head, Savannah and Beaufort

jimmy 1 — Jim’s first red fish on the fly went around 12 lbs

First Tropical storm Bonnie now Colin. what the heck ? No worries, the fishing has been really good with many new species starting to be thrown in the mix. Chris Webbers bunny fly getting it done as usual, Chris has been tying some great flies over the years,a nd they have proven themselves time and time again. Many of his patterns can be purchased at Rivers and Glenn fly shop in Downtown Savannah.

Having a bit of fun with the critters

Redfish are still the go to, but things are changing, Jacks and poon should be showing themselves. I love this time of the year when other fish are on the move, it’s nice to take a break from reds. Whether you want to Fly fish Hilton Head, or Savannah no one has done it longer. Don’t over pay for a short trip.
