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!

We had a great day fishing with Josh and Dawson! They were very knowledgeable and great with our kids! We will definitely call them again next time we are in Myrtle Beach!

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.

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.

Our family (of 9) very much enjoyed our 4hr trip with Captain Henry and Kelly. We caught a bunch of fish and one shark. No complaints. It was a wonderful addition to our vacation!
Valerie Phebus June 6, 2023
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.
Harris Silverman September 19, 2022

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
Josh and Lee were the best crew and fishing trip I have had! They are friendly, knowledgeable and all around fun guys to go out fishing with. I had a prior bad experience in a 4 hr near shore and was worried on going on our deep sea full day with Little River Fishing fleet again, Josh and Lee sure made me a loyal customer for any and all future trips out. We had a great trolling and bottom fishing 13 hours! Thank you Captain Josh and mate Lee! ???????????☝️☝️☝️☝️???
Ron Cupertino June 26, 2022
Awesome awesome job from captain Josh and helper Lee!! Couldn't have asked for better. Had 1/2 day deep sea fishing with my family, 12 of us. We all caught multiple fish and had the best time. Highly highly recommend but ask for these 2 specifically!!
Michelle Montgomery July 26, 2022
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
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
My husband and I had the pleasure of bringing our 12 year old son and 4 year old daughter on a 4 hour trip on the Southern Tide. Captain Josh and Dawson were amazing! We never had a pole without bait and when the bites slowed down Josh was quick to try the next spot. They both helped us out with pointers along the way and made sure my son and daughter were involved the entire time. We ended the trip with 2 keepers! If we travel back to Myrtle Beach we will be requesting Josh and Dawson again! We highly recommend the Little River Fishing Fleet!
Jessica Bruck April 29, 2024
Great trip great guides . Highly recommend .
Tom Johnson May 29, 2024
Fishing was Super Fantastic Saturday May 2, 2020. Captain Robert and the frist mate Ricky make a great team both are very knowledgeable and fun to fish with. Me and my buddy Eddie were cranking and yanking some really nice fish. I caught a mix bag of fish and a very nice Grouper/ while Eddie caught a nice Amberjack and a mix bag of fish. Five Stars to you guy's!!!

Captain Josh and his partner Dawson were amazing at what they did, and they were very friendly. We went out with them on a Saturday on their 6 hour trip and we had so much fun we went out with them again on the following Tuesday on the 11 hour trip. Both experiences are ones we will never forget!!
Maddy Courtright October 30, 2023
Took my two boys (9 &10) shark and bottom fishing. We caught so many fish (sea bass) and had a few keepers. We caught a small shark and an octopus too. Captain Tab and First mate Kelly were so friendly and helpful, especially helpful with the two boys while landing fish. I will definitely book another trip with Little River Fishing Fleet and I will ask for Captain Tab and Kelly again if possible.
Matthew Calhoun October 19, 2022
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a private fishing charter led by the knowledgeable guide, Alec. The experience exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Alec's expertise and attentiveness greatly enhanced our fishing endeavors, ensuring a successful and enjoyable outing. His professionalism and dedication to providing exceptional service were evident throughout the trip. I wholeheartedly recommend Alec as a guide for anyone considering a fishing charter. Thank you, Alec, for an unforgettable experience on the water.
tj reese May 29, 2024
Went on a 11 hour gulf stream fishing trip today on the Southern Tide. Capt. Lee and mate Dawson were awesome. He put us on the fish all day. They were attentive to everyone. The laughs were flowing. If I get the chace I will definitely come back and go fishing with ya'll again. Guys get some new batteries in those scales. Ya'll are really good. Couldn't of landed the grouper withou your help
Jason Burge September 6, 2023
Captain put us spot on the fish. We got a fish or two at the time of dropping the line. We all caught our limits and then had to throw back. Loved my trip ❤️.
Dianne Hagler October 19, 2022
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.
derek dicken June 29, 2024
Great trip. Our Captin was amazing. He did a great job of putting us on fish and walking those who where new through the process. Next deep sea fishing trip I book will definitely be with Little River fishing fleet.
jeffery dowdy June 26, 2022
Henry and Will are the best!!! We will definitely be back as they made the trip. Very attentive and personable also educated us on what were catching and the area itself. Thanks again for a great trip.
Brian Waller August 29, 2024
Captain Henry and First Mate Kelly sure showed us Okies a great time on a four hour private trip trolling and bottom fishing! They had us on mackerel almost immediately and so much so that we caught enough in an hour and a half that we were done trolling and we wanted to go try shark fishing a little further out.we ended up catching five sharks in another hour and a half and we’re ready to head back in. Henry and Kelly were great and even humored us and gaffed a jellyfish for us because we couldn’t quit gawking over them in the water. Lol If we ever come back, we’ll probably do a deep sea trip next time and get into more species. We’ll definitely be requesting this crew again!
Katie Clark June 6, 2023
Tab and the first mate were great! Caught some cool fish and enjoyed the trip.

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.
