Departs Daily from the Closest port to the ocean. More fishing time and less riding time
I highly recommend Little River Fishing Fleet for anyone looking for a great affordable fishing experience. We went on a 4 hour shark fishing charter and as you can see by the picture, it did not disappoint. Captain Brandon did a great job placing us on the fish. Additionally, deck hand Ricky was as great of a deck hand as you could expect. We never had to wait for more than a few seconds before he was there to help. I will definitely be booking another charter with them next time I’m at Myrtle Beach.

Huge shoutout to the two deckhands who worked our fishing trip (Atlantic Star) on 6-10-24 at 9 AM. They were rockstars!! They were funny, friendly, and extremely attentive. When someone in our group got seasick, the female was so caring and sweet. Hands down the best fishing trip we’ve ever done. These two employees were incredible!

Josh and Rex killed it all day, they even came around and helped the kids catch fish when they weren’t pulling fish off the hooks and baiting everyone’s hooks

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.

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.

Dawson and Lee were the best crew I ever had the pleasure to fish with. They treated everyone like gold and were super helpful. We will return!

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!

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.

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!

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
Tab is a great guide and gave us a great time. Caught plenty of fish. Enjoyed eating our catch for lunch too. Will go again if the opportunity arises

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
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
Josh and Dawson were the nicest guys who were always helping with the poles and bait, moving us to better spots and cutting the fish!
Chad Buchanan April 6, 2023
Dawson & Lee were the best crew we've ever had on a fishing trip... anywhere! Super helpful, full of great energy and tons of fun! My dad and I went on LRFF's 3/4 Day Fishing Charter. They were ran on time, were helpful getting everyone to & on the boat, so super helpful and very quick during our fishing (I don't touch fish🤦♀️😅), and were nice enough to show us dolphins and some other cool nature stuff on our way back to the dock. Worth every penny and then some! Boat was ran on time, was clean, and there was space for everyone! Highly recommend, and we will definitely return when we have an itchin for some fishin!!! 😁 Thanks gentlemen!!

We booked a trip to the gulf stream on the Southern Tide. Weather wasn't the best when we got under way, but Captain Dave and mate Michael persevered and got us out to the fish. We had a great day of fishing and the fish were mostly cooperating. Captain Dave moved around until he found the fish that were willing to participate in the fun and they were a tremendous help to us. All those in our group all had a great time and I definitely recommend this crew and boat for anyone's fishing adventure.
Charles Gatch October 19, 2022
When it comes to private charters it doesn’t get better than Little River Fishing Fleet. Josh and Dawson are the best!!!! They kept my 10 years old son busy all day. If you want fish in the cooler see these guys!!!
Dwayne Butler October 19, 2022

Darwin Krupla June 6, 2023
Great day of fishing with Captain Josh and Lee. Kids had an amazing time and caught a bunch of fish. Highly recommend!
Melissa P April 26, 2022
Great experience!!! The crew were very laid back and easy to talk to. Josh and Dave were constantly giving tips and moving to new spots, to enhance the experience! We caught a lot of fish. They filleted them right there on the dock! ( The pelicans loved them for it!) Great experience; would go there again!!!!
Norse Gunner August 26, 2021
First time we had a private charter. Great time and Josh and Johnny were very informative and helpful. We definitely had enough for supper and then some.
Benita Blouse July 26, 2022
I caught 2 Atlantic Sharpnose Sharks and a Spanish Mackerel! Captain Henry and First Mate Kelly made our trip an amazing trip. I have little to no fishing experience and had a wonderful time. Our crew were helpful, informative and accommodating; they provided the perfect assistance to feel independent but not intimidated. Our group of 4 from Oklahoma caught 5 shark and 5 mackerel (and a jellyfish) total while both trolling and drop fishing on a 4 hour trip - well worth the price!
Sara Bullard June 6, 2023
I just got back from the best fishing trip I've ever had. Brandon and Ricky Made the entire experience awesome. I've never seen anyone work as hard as Ricky did and both of these gentlemen wanted nothing more than to make our day a great success. They were just as excited when someone caught a fish as the angler. Their passion for the sport and customer service shines through. Thank you gentlemen and thank you Little River

My husband and I embarked on a fishing excursion today with Captain Tab and Michael, and despite a bout of seasickness, it turned out to be an excellent experience. The trip was punctual, with the boat leaving precisely at the scheduled time and returning right on time. Even with 11 guests, the boat never felt overcrowded, providing a comfortable setting for everyone. We went approximately 8-10 miles out. I managed to catch a grouper and a variety of smaller fish, and the crew efficiently cleaned the ones we were allowed to keep. Michael's attentiveness and helpfulness truly stood out. He played a pivotal role in making our trip enjoyable, despite the seasickness. In the end, it was a memorable trip, and we appreciate the professionalism and friendliness of the crew. Kudos to Michael for going above and beyond to ensure everyone had a great time. We look forward to another excursion with this fantastic team.

We had a great experience with Captain Henry catching stingrays and flounder. He made our trip to Myrtle Beach a great one. He got us in last minute. We highly recommend Little River Fishing Fleet.
Tony Wittenmyer October 15, 2024
Excellent experience!!! I booked a private charter with the blue runner. the captian and mate was both amazing. They kept the hooks baited and removed all the fish for us all. The mate made sure my 9 year got some large fish. Best charter we have been on by far well worth the money. Would love to go again.

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.
