About Your Trip

Whether it's using light tackle in the back creeks targeting the many different species of fish or going after a big bull redfish, various species of sharks, or even stingrays in the harbor, Captain Derrick has got you covered!

Step aboard this beautiful 21ft Robalo to explore the Stono River Esturary and the surrounding Lowcountry with an expert guide. She comes fully equipped with the latest top-of-the-line equipment, GPS, Fishfinder, a trolling motor, and a Power Pole shallow water anchor, allowing the opportunity to get to the fish in even the trickiest of areas! Powered by the strong and ever-dependable Yamaha 150hp outboard you are sure to get to the fish fast and back to the dock safe!

Captain Derrick will provide all the rods, reels, tackle, licenses, tackle, bait, an ice cooler, and bottled water. Feel free to bring your own equipment if you'd like, your favorite food and drinks, and don’t forget sunscreen, a hat, and some sunglasses!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
