I did the hilton head experience two years ago and was terribly disappointed.We rented a house in the so-called exclusive part of the island and found beach access to be severely limited unless you are actually in beachfront accomodations.I did detect some with no problems and found some clad and a few sinkers.Two months later I spent a week on St.George Island just to get over hh.Never be back to hilton head!DBULL
