jackAiIconJack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Kim consistently delivers exceptional inshore fishing results, with customers regularly catching redfish, speckled trout, black drum, flounder, and sheepshead. His deep knowledge of Hilton Head waters, tides, and currents helps anglers land impressive catches - one customer caught 35 redfish in a single trip! Kim provides well-maintained tackle, quality bait including fresh shrimp and mullet, and adjusts his coaching based on each angler's experience level. He takes customers to hidden spots and even casts nets for fresh bait during trips. Customers consistently praise Kim's patience and genuine enthusiasm, especially when working with beginners, children, and special needs anglers. He hooks bait for those who need help, cleans and fillets the catch, and even provides fish scraps for crab bait while teaching pier crabbing techniques. Many guests describe him as down-to-earth, kind, and educational, with several booking repeat trips and calling their experience the best charter they've ever had.

Very knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated to making sure all passengers have a great time. Captain Kim asked for everyone's experience levels fishing, both in general and inshore South Carolina fishing. Captain Kim adjusted how much he assisted and coached based on everyone's experience levels and made sure everyone had as much help as they needed to have a good time. The tackle was well maintained and a joy to use. The bait provided was excellent with both Shrimp and Mullet. Captain Kim hooked the bait for my wife and got her fish off the hook for her, which she very much appreciated and I appreciated being able to focus on my own fishing. When we returned to the dock Captain Kim cleaned our fish, put the filets in a freezer bag, and gave us the scraps to use as crab bait and taught us how to crab off a pier with them. I will be booking another charter through I Love Fishing Charters and Captain Kim when I am back in HH. I recommend Captain Kim for all fishing experience levels. The price was very affordable and we all had an amazing time.

Captain S Kim was great. We fished on a slower more difficult day but he knew how to take advantage of the tide and was knowledgeable with getting us on fish! It was great!

The captain was phenomenal! He didn’t just put us on the fish, he educated us on so many levels. I would highly recommend this charter to everyone! I’ve been taking charters for years now, this simply was the Best Experience I’ve ever had, we do appreciate the education provided.

We had such a blast on our 3 hour fishing trip. Captian Kim was so fun, nice, and knew the waters very well. He was a huge help and very patient. We caught a handful of different species. Would highly recommend for new or experienced anglers!

Capt Kim was the BEST. I booked a trip for myself and my special needs son. Capt Kim was phenomenal with him. Super patient; kind, and took the time to explain everything to him. And we caught A LOT of fish! Perfect excursion, can’t thank him enough!

I had a wonderful trip for my father's birthday. Captain Kim was very knowledgeable and super friendly. We caught our limit of redfish in the first hour. Then went on to target other species. Terrific service. I would highly recommend! A beautiful day on the water.

Fantastic Trip! We had an amazing time with Captain Kim! We caught a redfish and turned it into a delicious dinner. Even though we were beginners, Captain Kim was a great teacher and made the experience fun and easy. We’d definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone, regardless of skill level. He’s also fantastic with kids!
