Was very pleased with this company, but especially our captain and mate Brandon and Ricky. These two went way above and beyond helping out party. We had a elderly disabled person with us and these guys helped and made things happen to ensure that our physically disabled person was safe and able to participate. My daughter asked about seeing dolphins and sharks. Well we fished hit tons of mackerel fallowed a shrimp boat and saw dolphins swimming, then came the best yet (see photo). I can’t brag on these guys more.

We took our very first fishing trip in May. We had a fantastic experience ! Our Captain was Brittany and she made sure we brought home some fish! Kelly was the Mate for the day and his enthusiasm for each one of us when we caught a fish was infectious! We had so much FUN! The crew made it their job that we did! It was relaxing and enjoyable! An experience everyone should enjoy! Go on… GO FISHING! Give them a call for an awesome adventure! We love Little River Fishing Fleet!

Joined Captain Josh and mate Dawson today for a deep sea fishing trip. While the ocean waves were not cooperating Josh and Dawson did an amazing job of putting us on the fish!! So much fun. Would love to go back out there with Little River Fishing Fleet with Josh/Dawson! Great job guys.

We had a party of five and everyone in our party caught fish and had a great time the crew was very attentive and helpful if you're going to go on a head bolt I recommend this one highly
Ted Sawicki July 29, 2024
Highly recommend this company. I usually book them every other month for the gulf stream trips. Staff are incredibly friendly, accommodating and hardworking. Always have positive interactions with them. Captain Josh is a class act and will put you on big fish. He and his mates have made me a repeat customer. Always a pleasure fishing with them. And the kind women who answers the phone and checks me in, she's also wonderful. This fleet has good vibes all around.

I had a great time going out with Little River Fishing Fleet this past December and went on a 1/2 day specialty fishing trip. I wasn't expecting to catch much, but I was able to catch 3 keeper black sea bass and a spottail pinfish along countless other undersized black sea bass. The captain was very knowledgeable and made sure we were on productive fishing spots. I highly recommend this fishing charter company as they put you on the fish and have friendly and helpful staff!
James Paige August 5, 2022
I had an absolute blast fishing with these guys. So much better than a headboat and not much more money for the open specialty boat trips. We got into the black sea bass on the way to the gulf stream and were catching quality fish all day. The crew was really awesome and did an amazing job keeping everyone rigged, and moving the boat to keep us continually catching. Such a great trip with an outstanding crew. Highly recommend over some of the other companies out there. Best bang for your buck on the water.
Daniel Seaney July 29, 2024
Lee & Dawson were great! Made everyone comfortable no matter what your experience level is. Caught plenty of fish and even a shark! Highly recommend this group!
J & M Markham August 29, 2024
Great all day trip with a great crew! I was part of a 10 person group of friends and lucked out having the boat to ourselves. The Captain kept us on the fish and the mate kept everyone baited and helped greatly during the entire 11 hours.
Wes August 26, 2021
The Little River Fishing Fleet did not disappoint. The boat was clean, provided us with plenty of bait and most importantly, Captain Brandon put us on the fish! We had an amazing fishing experience for several reasons. We had one of the most hard working, dedicated and experienced First Mate on board, Rick. Between Rick and Capt Brandon, they both were there to assist with anything and everything, from tangles to baiting our hooks as well as fishing tips. A huge thanks to Capt Brandon and Rick and I look forward to seeing you guys again (soon).
Robert Nunez June 26, 2022
Went out with Capt. LEE today on the Southern Tide. Capt. and Mate kept us on fish all day. It was a great experience. I would highly recomend and will be booking a trip with them again when we return. We brought home a nice mixed bag of fillets. Sea bass, porgy, sea perch. We seen a nice grouper caught along with a couple of really nice red snapper. Great job guys! Keep up the great work

Went out on Tuesday with Captain Lee and First Mate Henry who are awesome!! Both of them were very personable and helped with lines, bait and finding the best fishing spots. There were only 8 people fishing for the 9-1 pm trip and our lines were always baited and they took off the small fish to throw back. We had several Black Sea bass keepers and had the most wonderful day on the water. On the way back in, the dolphins were cresting the water and Captain Lee circled the boat around them so we could watch and enjoy ? highly recommended!
Jana Metzler March 6, 2023

Michelle Conover June 6, 2023
Didn’t catch much as the waters were super choppy today. But the guides Brianna and I believe Brittany were awesome. Good experience will definitely be back.

Good food. Ocean view
K Ann Pinkston November 29, 2023
This was an awesome experience! I'd never been deep sea fishing before and it was so fun. I love being outside, being on the water, enjoying nature, and having fun! This was the perfect excursion to end vacation on. I would definitely do another excusion with this company again, likely a longer day next time! The crew, Josh & Rex were awesome! Highly recommended!
Meghan Grubbs May 26, 2022
Henry and Gary we're awesome
Shawn Otto May 6, 2023
We would definitely recommend Little River to anyone. We took a half day charter for our youngest sons birthday, our crew was Capt. Alex and Micheal on the blue runner. They where hands down a great team and made his birthday one he will remember for sure, on top of all the knowledge they had they also maintained a very clean work and safe environment. They made it a priority to be hands on and helpful for all of us, our only regret was not booking the entire day. Thanks to everyone at Little River Fishing Fleet for making our charter one to remember!
Xavier April 6, 2023
I have deep sea fished for over 35 years and used many fleets but have found the best for many reasons: The crew, Brandon and Ricky were beyond nice, knowledgeable, and helpful, and patient with those who were a noob. All bait was provided, included were large minnows which is rare. Cleaning your fish of course was provided and Ricky did it excellently with plenty of filet and a nominal price. I chartered the Gulf Stream trip.
Pam Hartman June 26, 2022
My family and I went out for a 4 hour private inland shore fishing with Captain Dustin, and we all had a great time! He knew a lot of different areas to fish and told us exactly what to use to try and catch what we wanted. Fishing was tough, but we manged to catch a few good ones. We’ll definitely book again when we’re back in town!
Morgan Bruneau May 29, 2024
Outstanding experience. Mates were friendly and very helpful. Did 1/2 day and 3/4. Both good trips but I highly recommend 3/4. Caught so many fish.
D Heidler July 26, 2022

Ernest Nudo October 8, 2024

The crew of the “SS Blue Runner” was ready to embark on their maiden voyage out into open waters. The young, but trusty Captain Holden was at the helm. It would be a beautiful day of catch and release of a number of Genuine Red Snappers, a wee bit undersized Gag Grouper, a Sandbar Shark and some other small fish. But a catch of 10 keepers came in an assortment of Spanish Mackerel, Black Sea Bass, Trigger Fish and a Ringtail Porgy. Since 1985, Little River Fishing Fleet has been the area leader in Deep Sea Fishing Charters and Open Boat Fishing Trips in the Myrtle Beach area. Our trip went out of Calabash, North Carolina right on the Calabash Creek. Our well weathered but sturdy boat the Blue Runner was a 35 foot Custom Fishing Vessel with a 13 foot beam and a semi-enclosed cabin. Our crew of one, Holden, was knowledgeable, efficient and friendly making our outing an enjoyable time.
Philip Ward May 29, 2024
We had a great fishing trip and would totally go again. The water was choppy when we first set out, so mostly everyone was soaked by the waves but no one seemed to mind too much. It was much calmer going back in the evening. The boat took us somewhere 18-20 miles off shore.
Our 3,500 Square Foot Retail Facility offers you the opportunity to ask questions about fishing charters, recent catches, or sea conditions. Grab a local fishing shirt, hold and feel a new rod and reel, or just grab an extra stringer, sunglasses or a new Calcutta Cooler. We have a large selection of items, and if you book a trip, a discount on product is an extra bonus. We’re located at 1901 Hwy 17 South, in North Myrtle Beach.

INSHORE FISHING CHARTERS
One of our Most Popular Trips – Inshore Fishing Targeting Reds, Drum, & Flounder
Our 2019 Robalo Cayman, 24 and a half foot shallow water vessel is perfect for getting you deep in the winding marshes, or in those flat water situations that our larger vessels are unable to reach. These light tackle, light rod trips are beginner friendly, and get you on the flat water for a day of fishing in North Myrtle Beach and Southeast North Carolina.
You are covered under our fishing license. Also, we’ll provide the rod, reel, tackle, and bait. You provide the smiles and sense of adventure.
What am I going to catch?
On the shorter trips, you’ll catch a lot of fish, but due to federal regulations, you’ll have to throw a lot of them back. The further out the trip goes, the more fish you are able to catch, keep, and bring back to the dock with you. Our experienced Captains will always do their best to put you on the fish. Call us in the office to find out what’s currently being caught.
Where does the boat depart?
We have two different departure points. The Little River waterfront and the Calabash waterfront. Both are close to the inlet and allow for maximum fishing time. We’ll give you exact directions when you book your trip, or you can call us for more specifics at 843-361-3323
Is this family friendly?
Yes! We love to take kids fishing, however we don’t recommend that children 4 and under venture out onto the high seas for personal safety reasons. With a mate to help bait hooks and remove fish, this is the perfect chance to take those above 4 out for a day on the water.
Let’s talk about your next Deep Sea Fishing Adventure.
We have decades of experience putting people on the fish, and we offer several options to make that happen. From the budget friendly, classic head boat trip, the specialty bottom fishing, trolling, or shark trip, to the fully customized private charter. We have you covered. And, one of the things that we do well is putting like minded people together to reduce the cost, and still provide that private charter feel. Send us a note below about what you are looking for and we’ll get back to you quickly.
