Tailfin Expeditions emerged from well over a decade of guiding anglers across diverse US and Bahamas locations, specializing in the captivating backdrop of Charleston's marsh grass. Capt Adam operates out of a East Cape 17 EVO and a 22' Sportsman Masters. Both of these vessels are perfect for any situation you or your group is looking for. Whether it be fishing flats or taking larger groups to nearshore reefs. Tailfin has you covered.
This unique setting offers thrilling angling opportunities, from targeting tailers atop the grass during flood tides to swiftly presenting flies or lures for the exhilarating moment of a fish striking – an experience akin to the SEC Conference motto, "It just means more." Tailfin Expeditions proudly serves Charleston, Folly Beach, Edisto and Kiawah Island regions.
Tailfin Expeditions offers expertly guided fishing experiences in Charleston, focusing on the captivating marsh grass backdrop.
Whether you're new or experienced, we tailor the trip to your skill level. We optimize locations based on fish presence, wind, tides, sun, and angler preferences. Saltwater fishing requires unique skills – quick, accurate casting is essential to approach fish undetected amidst wind and boat movement.
We specialize in sight fishing the flats where we hunt for our quarry. This type of fishing allows us to get close to our targets undetected. Your rewarding journey awaits with Tailfin Expeditions.
As winter ends, hungry redfish and returning baitfish create excellent fishing conditions. In late Spring, cobia also reappear near Charleston's southern inlets.
Diverse species abound, including Redfish, Jack Crevalles, Sea Trout, Sheepshead, Sharks, and Tarpon. Expect increased flood tides, providing chances to catch tailing Redfish in the grass.
Best time of year for Redfish. Cooler weather coupled with the most flood tides of the year make for happy fish. They feel winter coming and the bait leaving so now's the time to pack on pounds.
Crystal-clear water allows sight casting for Redfish on mud and oyster flats, particularly exceptional during this period. Creeks and oyster mounds are hotspots for Sea Trout, Sheepshead, and Flounder.
As a former guide and someone who travels often and has fished everywhere, I feel like I have a fairly unique perspective when it comes to guides and the experience they offer. A guy willing to put in the work when conditions are difficult, keeps a good attitude with good humor helps keep you in the game and excited for the next cast. Adam offers all that and more. Experience, expertise and knowledge of local waters offers many options, even when things aren’t easy. Anyone can make a great day when fishing is hot, those that can do it when it’s work separate themselves from the pack. Good, bad or in-between, Adam will get you on the fins and make a great experience along the way.

“Had an amazing time! Adam was a great Captain. He was super informative and the amount we learned in one day was priceless. My son had an “EPIC” time as he says, definitely a core memory for him. Boat was compact and clean, and all equipment was in top shape. Felt super safe the whole time. He was great with kids, and we will definitely be back in the fall!”

"Unbelievable day on the water! Our guide Adam made it unforgettable. He put us right where the action was and got both my wife and I our first redfish on fly. Can't wait for round two!"
