We love getting the big Red Drum tuned in ! they are beautiful fish with a lot of power ! Hilton Head has some of the best Redfishing on the east coast when everything comes together!
The Mackeral fishing is really on fire right now ! Capt . Cory and Capt Nick know where they are !!!! Come fishing with Native Son Adventures and possibly catch a fish of a life time!
Listen to my great friend Cindy Rodriguez! She sounds like a little girl at her tenth birthday party getting a new puppy! The energy is so contagious, some people never grow up. Lets hope none of us ever have to. The palmetto lagoon system is unreal! 11 miles of saltwater lagoon winding through a hardwood forest. A magical concoction of Saltwater and forest birds mixed with forest critters and river dwellers. If you added all the time Captain Trent and I have spent exploring the waterways it would probably add up to a few years. No kidding, we have been fishing it since we were puppy drum. Capt Trent owns Palmetto Lagoon charters and is one of my best friend’s and fishing guru. Eventhough I out fish him all the time. Hahaha Don’t tell him I said that! We have so many stories between us…
Exploring is everything to me. I love asking my clients “hey you guys wanna just go explore”? I find the essence of ‘fishing’ and life is looking in new areas and trying new techniques. Sometimes you hit the ball out of the park and sometimes not so much. This time we hit it out of the park, what a battle, what a surprise. The weather had just gotten nice after weeks of grey windy cold blaaahhhh. We had the music pumping just enjoying the sun, having some laughs catching a few small Sea bass and Weakfish. Out of nowhere the big rod up on the rocket launcher started screaming, I yelled “Fish On”! Which was fitting because I was running my long time fishing partner Captain Trent Malphrus’s New 24 foot Bad to the bone Pathfinder he named Fish On (Palmetto Lagoon Charters)….
What a great day fishing with my new friends Dale and “Auntie” Becky Hudack ! We had to work at it, but like a light switch Mother Nature decided to turn on!! Becky fought this giant Bull redfish on the super-light rod for what seemed like a hour!! She is getting a custom replica made by the amazing artists at Greys Taxidermy to put on the wall. She said, “Byron this is a big deal! I was fighting for my life not long ago, not knowing if I was ever going to fish again. Look at me now!” I am so lucky to have this job and lifestyle. I am also lucky to be able to Guide in the legendary Palmetto Dunes Resort on their amazing, eleven mile, fifty year old saltwater lagoon system. I have been working with Palmetto Lagoon charters and my fishing…
