Background
Captain Rusty Kennedy runs fishing charters out of St. Simons Island, but also enjoys sharing the boating experience with those who prefer to leave the rods at the dock- to simply experience the beauty and nature of the Lowcountry waterways. Every Tour is customizable! Captain Rusty has been navigating and fishing the waters of the Golden Isles since 1980, building a proud, three-generation family tradition. Having spent decades raising his own kids and now raising his grandkids on these exact waterways, fishing truly runs through the bloodlines. Now retired from his professional career, Captain Rusty is dedicating his days to his ultimate passion. Bringing notable tournament awards and incredible stories of fishing alongside local legends, he has a wealth of history to share. He looks forward to passing on his love of the sport and unmatched knowledge of fishing the Golden Isles to every guest who steps aboard.
Techniques
Captain Rusty has a deep passion for the thrill of competitive fishing tournaments and tracking down the perfect catch, but his favorite boat activities go beyond the rods and reels. He truly loves sharing the natural beauty of the low country with others, guiding families and friends as they cruise the scenic, winding waterways. Whether it is a quiet sunset ride or a lively afternoon celebration, helping guests make unforgettable memories on the water is what he enjoys most.
