We provide coolers and ice for your drinks and food. You may bring a couple soft sided coolers if you would like. Leave the hard coolers in your vehicle to take your fish home

We fished on the BackHaul during the summer of 2023. Everything about the experience was top notch from the captain and crew’s knowledge and experience on down to the smallest details. They put us on the fish and we had a fantastic experience and made great memories! Would absolutely recommend Captain Adam and crew!

Our family spent an epic day with Captain Adam and the crew of Backhaul Sportfishing in June. So many mahi I lost count. Our arms were so tired from reeling in fish. The boat was clean and well appointed. Captain Adam is knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. We made memories that will last a lifetime.
Stacey Lollis
The Backhaul crew is amazing! Clean environment and everyone on the team is super friendly. My friends and I had a wonderful day catching so many fish!! I highly recommend choosing Backhaul Sportfishing for your next fishing adventure.
Pam McNairy
This boat and crew were amazing! This will be a trip I will book every year! Caught lots of fish, fresh air, sunshine and tons of smiles !!!! Thank you boat crew for a great memory !!!

My father-in-law and I went fishing with Capt. Adam for bull reds and he did not disappoint! He was exceptionally knowledgeable about all types of fishing and was more than happy to answer any questions we asked. As avid offshore and inshore fisherman ourselves it was great to be able to talk fishing the whole day and learn some new tricks. Oh and we catch some really nice bull reds. We had a great time and would recommend him to anybody. Thanks for the trip!!
Anne Winters
My friends and I had a great time from start to finish with Capt. Adam. He is a very easy going Captain and has an extensive knowledge of where to be based on the time of day, the tides, and the weather. The beauty of Charleston and the shoreline alone is enough to get out on the water! But most importantly, he put us on the fish! If you are not fishing with Capt. Adam, then you aren't doing it right!

We had another amazing fishing experience with Adam today. We’ve been out with him before and this time was just as fun as the other times. Adam knows right where to take us so we’re sure to have a memorable fishing trip. Today we caught more fish than we can count and at one point they were coming in too fast to take pics together! We even caught an unexpected flounder! Our daughter looks forward to going out again. This is her second time. We will be back again and hopefully can fly our sons in to join us next time. They will love it.
Brendan Spellman
Captain Adam was awesome and our fishing experience was so fun! He knew some great spots for fishing and we had a great time spending a couple hours with him on the boat. We were able to catch a couple a very large red fish in the middle of May. I would highly recommended spending a day out on the water with therapy fishing!
Jeff Meyer
Our family of three had a great time fishing with Captain Adam on a Tuesday morning for a four hour in short trip! We caught over 125 pounds of red drum, 2 small sharks, and 3 very strong, stubborn rays. Adam kept the hooks baited and gave excellent fishing tips along the way. We had great weather, a great time fishing, and thoroughly enjoyed our trip!
Albert Wei
We chartered an inshore trip with Therapy Fishing two weeks ago, had a blast, and would highly recommend him. Captain Adam is not only one of the most knowledgeable guides in the area but goes out of his way to make his customers feel comfortable - providing recommendations on where to eat, pointing out landmarks, etc. This was also the first fishing trip for my niece and Captain Adam went out of his to ensure she had a good time. If we return next year, we'd definitely book with Captain Adam!
