And there a big something that broke off. Pics on his site.Posted on Google george berkeyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son, Jason and grandson, Maddox, and I enjoyed a great day of fishing with Captain Tim. What a great guy and a great captain. We caught a wide variety of fish and Captain Tim cleaned that night’s dinner! Can’t recommend him enough!Posted on Google Earl DoeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Anniversary anglers we had a great time on this trip. It was our 15 year anniversary and me and my wife just enjoyed ourselves nice peaceful, great captain (Kevin) and great service.Posted on Google Julie Cohen (Jules)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Two Trips with Cast Away Fishing Charters (June 29th & July 1st, 2026) Fishing with Captain Kevin – June 29, 2026 If you're looking for a fishing charter in the Beaufort/Port Royal area, I hope you'll consider Cast Away Fishing Charters. I spent a lot of time reading reviews before choosing a charter for my wife, Deb (NanD), and our grandson Noah. This wasn't just about catching fish. I wanted Noah's very first fishing trip to be something special, and I wanted him to spend the day with someone we trusted. Every road led me back here, and now I understand why. Their day started at the Port Royal boat docks. Before long, Noah caught his very first fish...a Bonnethead shark! Then another. And another! Captain Kevin carefully released each one and took the time to explain why. I loved that Noah came home excited, but also with a greater respect for the fish and the water they call home. They also caught spotted sea trout, a red drum, and mullet, but the best part wasn't what they caught. It was everything they experienced together. Noah came home talking about every fish, everything he had learned, and every exciting moment of the day. Deb came home smiling after spending such special one-on-one time with her grandson. Those smiles said everything. When they returned, Captain Kevin cleaned and filleted every fish. That meant Deb walked through the front door with dinner instead of another chore. The adventure didn't end at the dock. It continued around our kitchen table as Noah told his stories all over again. Before we ate, he thanked the fish for giving their lives so we could share the meal together. We all joined him. It was one of those simple, unexpected moments that made the day even more meaningful. That evening, we enjoyed the freshest fish any of us had ever eaten. As I write this, we'll be cooking the red drum and mullet tonight, and I'm pretty sure Captain Kevin and Noah's fishing stories will once again be part of dinner. To me, a great fishing charter isn't measured by how many fish you catch. It's measured by what you bring home long after the boat is back at the dock. Captain Kevin gave our family exactly that. Thank you for giving Noah a first fishing trip he'll never forget and for taking such good care of Deb. We'll definitely be back. Cruising with Captain Tim – July 1, 2026 A few days later, we were back with Cast Away Fishing Charters, this time for one of Captain Tim's scenic boat trips to an uninhabited island. It turned out to be one of our favorite days. The ride through the marshes was beautiful. We watched birds take flight and soaked in the peaceful beauty of the Lowcountry. What I loved most was how naturally Captain Tim turned the trip into a learning experience. He showed Noah where the waves break and explained why, talked about the tides, and shared that horseshoe crabs have been around since prehistoric times. Noah listened to every word. Once we reached the island, Noah was off exploring. He searched for shells, found sand dollars, and was especially excited to discover a horseshoe crab shell. Every few minutes, he came running over to show us another treasure. One of the funniest moments happened on the way back. Floating in the marsh was a bright green inner tube that read, "Leave Me Alone." We all laughed while Captain Tim maneuvered the boat to retrieve it and handed it to Noah, who thought he'd won the lottery. Even better, one more piece of litter was removed from the marsh. By the time we got home, Noah was exhausted. Wrapped in his towel and hugging his new "Leave Me Alone" float, he was asleep before we were halfway back. Thank you, Captain Tim, for an incredible day. You gave Noah an adventure full of discovery that I know he'll remember for years to come.Posted on Google Jean Marie EvringhamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband Keith and I had a great time!!! Captain Nat is a great guy to fish with. He put us on fish at each stop. It was only our inexperience that limited our catch, still we caught keeper redfish, spotted trout, and flounder. We hope to come back this July. PS. I caught a 2.5 foot Bonnet Head shark Hooked and landed it with no leader!Posted on Google Crystal AtheyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great time with Capt.Kevin to celebrate a birthday and Father’s Day with a Hook n Cook. We caught several great red fish, a blowfish, and a shark that brought some excitement. We did have some issues at Fish Camp for the cook portion but Capt Kevin and Capt Tim’s Wife made sure we were taken care of and our fresh fish, prepared as fried and grilled bites, plus fish tacos, was absolutely delicious!Posted on Google Kate ParkersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Perfect gift for my grandson's 15th birthday. Capt. Nat was awesome, found the fish, kept our bait going and cleaned our keepers to boot. Capt. Mrs. Tim put together a cute and personal gift package for him to open and keep. Thank you all for the great day!Posted on Google Morgan MurphyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our experience with Castaway Charters was great! Captain Kevin was very hospitable and knowledgeable. We hope to do it again in the future!Posted on Google Scott ZeilerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Captain Kevin was great! He answered all of my sons million questions. Also kept us moving around to assure we got on fish. I highly recommend. We will definitely be planning another trip.Posted on Google Brian DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our Captain was Nat. We arrived at the boat landing 10 minutes before our scheduled departure and he was all set up and ready to go. Nat took us to 4 different spots and we caught fish at every single spot. Between my son and I, we caught over a dozen fish (Red Drums and Trout). We ended up with 5 keepers (2 Drum and 3 Trout). The rest of the fish we caught were just slightly to small or way to big to keep. My son and I had a great time and Nat was very experienced and has a good eye for where the fish are. Highly recommend.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
