Capt. Lawson was amazing! He knows the area and understands how the fish use the water. I did a 3/4 day charter and he had us on fish pretty much all day. After we hammered one spot, we moved on to the next one and new fish and fresh opportunities.Anyone that’s gone out with guides knows that when you spend 4+ hours with someone in boat a good personality/attitude is just as important as good fishing. Capt. was a great hang and the good conversation made the (rare) slow moments just as enjoyable as when we were sight casting to back to back to back reds.I’ll definitely be back!

Great time fishing with Tailfin for 2 days. Can’t wait to do it again. Provides great gear on a great boat and had us on fish the whole time. Top shelf outfit all around and just a wonderful experience.

Thanks Adam for helping my son land his first red on a fly!

2026-03-14T18:55:09.056Z

Good times! Easy going guide, works hard to get on fish. Not easy to pole a flats boat for hours on end, fighting wind and tide.

I have fished with Adam from Tailfin on several occasions. I’ve taken my kids, customers, you name it. It is always a fantastic experience and everyone on the boat has a blast and catches fish. Would not hesitate to recommend Tailfin to anyone interested in having a good day on the water in Charleston.

2026-03-06T21:01:02.062Z

Had a great trip with Adam. He is very knowledgeable and works hard to make it an enjoyable experience. We would definitely book with him again

Adam is a fantastic guide and knows the area well! It was my wife’s first time ever fishing and he was very personable, patient and helpful for our first time fishing in Charleston!

2026-01-05T01:28:09.098Z

I had an amazing experience with Tailfin Expeditions! Adam was knowledgeable and patient, making sure I had a great time even as a beginner. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped, and I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to enjoy a day on the water.

Had a fantastic few days chasing redfish with Adam even though a cold front came through he was still able to find fish on a consistent basis. Already trying to plan our next trip!!

Captain Adam provided a unique lowcountry experience for us that was different than any other typical charter I had done in the past- he patiently showed us how to locate the fish and then we stalked them deep into the marsh. It was a special day and my buddy caught his personal best!

2025-12-01T19:17:19.324Z

Had a great time and learned a lot about fly fishing. Great time.

Adam is as down to earth and good of a guy as it gets and a total pro at his craft and fishery. We had an absolute blast. Would highly recommend and will absolutely be fishing with him again the next time I head to Charleston.

2025-11-24T17:45:34.869Z

Adam is outstanding! We booked him for our annual company trip and had a great time. He is dialed into the fish and the their hides throughout the Charleston area. Adam worked his butt off for us and we will definitely return for more!I highly recommend TAILFIN Expeditions!

I recently had the pleasure of fishing with Captain Adam Lawson of Tailfin Expeditions, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Adam is not just a guide, he’s a true pro with deep knowledge of the local fishery, tides, and salt-marsh dynamics. His expertise made all the difference.The boat setup was fantastic, Adam runs an East Cape skiff, which is incredibly stable and maneuverable. That made cast­ing in wind or rough water feel surprisingly smooth. It’s clear he’s tailored his setup to excel in the Lowcountry flats, and it shows in how comfortable and safe the platform feels.On top of that, he brought the right gear, tied flies, and always coached me in a way that built my confidence without being overbearing. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced angler, he meets you where you are and helps you get better.Lastly, the trip wasn’t just about fishing, it was about experiencing the beauty of Charleston’s marshes, and Adam pointed out wildlife, shared stories, and made the outing genuinely memorable.If you’re looking for a guide who knows this water inside-out, cares about the experience (not just getting you bites), and values safety, Tailfin Expeditions with Captain Adam Lawson is a stellar choice. I can’t wait to go back.

Great day fishing with Adam. Of course, the day I chose to go fishing was the windiest of the week, but Adam managed to navigate the white caps and find productive water where we could see and cast to fish. We managed to get 7 nice redfish on the fly - which was a great result. Highly recommend a day with Adam !!

2025-11-08T17:53:31.817Z

Capt Adam is a true professional! It was a pleasure to fish with him!

2025-10-28T16:37:31.670Z

Adam Lawson is the best of the best. I've fished with him for 20 years all over the world. Most recently, he put my 10 year old daughter on her first redfish on fly on his home turf in the SC marsh. That day, he gave her an excitement about fly fishing and a confidence in herself that she didn't have before. IYKYK - book Adam.

2025-10-17T11:55:36.326Z

Adam is a great captain and I caught multiple redfish 24” plus!

2025-10-09T18:58:19.579Z

A very enjoyable day on the water with Captain Adam. Why did I only book one day? Excellent guide, more importantly a great person. Helpful pointers and my first red on fly! He goes the extra mile to make sure you have a fun day. Highly recommend.

2025-10-02T20:33:26.219Z

My son and I had a great time! Adam is very knowledgeable about the fish on the LowCountry and has a lot of experience guiding fishing trips. We will be hiring them again in the future.

2025-09-23T11:43:11.917Z

Adam with TAILFIN is fantastic! He knows the water well and where the fish are. He is very easy going and had some welcomed tips to help me improve my casting. I’ve had guides that were difficult, but Adam’s calm demeanor always keeps the fun rolling. Always well-prepared with a game plan in mind, he’s my go-to any time I’m in down in the Lowcountry.

2025-09-11T01:25:02.694Z

Definitely planning on going back out with Tailfin Expeditions. Had a blast!

2025-09-02T12:36:52.102Z

Captain Adam was an excellent guide and accommodated myself and my family’s every request. I highly recommend Tailfin if you’re in the Charleston area and you want to have a great time on the water!

2025-08-26T12:55:43.448Z

I highly recommend going on a fishing expedition with TAILFIN. The fishing was spectacular and it was a perfect setup for anyone who just wants to get away from the grind and just fish. The location wasn’t bad either🙂. You will not be disappointed!!

2025-08-25T18:44:03.206Z

Extremely well organized trip. Everyone in the group caught fish nearly every day, there was one day where we weren’t able to fish due to storms. Venue offered excellent service and the guides were awesome. I personally caught my target species each day, which included my first permit and later in the trip my largest tarpon to date. Other fishermen in the group were easy to get along with resulting in a wonderful experience. Absolutely recommend Tailfin Expeditions, Adam was a pleasure to work and fish with! I’ve already booked my next trip to Belize!

2025-08-25T13:15:03.889Z

Captain Adam provided a top knotch experience from beginning to end. The booking process was easy and there were clear lines of communication throughout the entire process. The minute we stepped on the boat Captain Adam had a clear game plan and as soon as we arrived to out fishing grounds we were hooked up on tailing reds within the first few cast. Captain Adam made the day easy and extremly enjoyable. He is a very diversified Captain and his knowledge of his fishery was extensive. Captain Adam is the type of guide you find and stick with for years to come. We are already planning a return trip to keep the fishing going!

2025-08-23T03:49:57.881Z

Adam is a great guy and guide. We will be back again!

2025-08-09T18:31:47.864Z

What a trip! Capt. Adam is an absolute professional who knows the water and got us on fish. Funny and easy to talk to. Highly recommend him and will be a repeat customer!

2025-07-07T19:38:17.334Z

My brother and I had a great day on the water with Adam! Conditions were tough the day after a tropical storm, and Adam made the best of it and put us on tons of fish!Very knowledgeable guide who has a diverse background of experience and is a pleasure to spend the day with. Looking forward to the next time we get to fish together!
