Meet Captain Bill
The Lowcountry is full of God’s beautiful scenery and we think some of the most beautiful sites are in the waters surrounding Hilton Head Island and Beaufort, South Carolina. Captain Bill Kendrick is a licensed U.S. Coast Guard Charter Captain and owner/operator of Sonrise Fishing Charters, LLC.
"I have been in the Hilton Head area for over sixteen years and have fished the local waters and surrounding areas extensively. I do my best to show my clients an enjoyable time on the inland waters, from showing off the unique nature of the Lowcountry to catching fish in its waters. Site fishing for Redfish is our favorite pass time but the waters are abundant with trout, cobia, tarpon and flounder, depending on the season, with plenty of shark action during the summer months.
You will enjoy fishing out of a 2018 Ranger RB 190 boat with quality tackle. If you are looking for a safe and enjoyable time on the water bring your sunglasses and lets go fishing".

Captain Bill relates extremely well to both the experienced angler as well as to the new, young, or inexperienced angler. He also has an amazing ability to identify and point out the many natural wonders of the low country and its waters. A day on the water with Captain Bill is a great day! “
