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.

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!

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.

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!

If you are looking to experience a great time on the water, give Little River Fishing Fleet a try. With all fishing equipment and bait provided, they will greet you with a warm welcome and treat you like family while you fish. We picked the 11 hour Gulf Stream limited capacity specialty fishing trip aboard the Southern Tide. I've been fishing for several years and Ricky by far is the best deckhand I have ever seen. Is work ethic is unmatched and will do whatever he can to guarantee an enjoyable charter for you and your party. So what are you waiting for? Head on down to Little River Fishing Fleet and get ready for a great day on the water!

Hubby took the 11 hr fishing trip and came back with a cooler full of fish. He had a great time, said the boat crew were friendly & helpful. He can't wait to go again on our next trip to the Myrtle Beach area.

1st time Deep sea fishing and it was a great experience. Lee and Mike did a great job finding the places to catch fish and were very knowledgeable and made the trip a fun experience.
Jason Ovall October 16, 2023
This was great, josh and Dawson kept the lines stretched all day. We had a great time, and always book the bigger boat. This was the best trip so far!
Robert Harris October 29, 2023

Caleb Crisp October 19, 2022
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
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.
Aldo Lopez August 26, 2021
Amazing staff. Josh and Larry were awesome. Highly recommend them and will be back for sure!
charlotte flegal October 19, 2022

Gwen McCloud August 6, 2023
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 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
Jeffery Lattray May 26, 2022
We had an awesome fishing experience with Captain Robert and first mate David. Both made our experience first rate. Everyone had a great time from grandma and grandpa all the way to the kids. We will definitely sail with them again.
Lane Bentley August 26, 2021
Henry and Gary we're awesome
Shawn Otto May 6, 2023
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
We had an amazing trip, we booked the 6 hour morning trip and had a blast. Ricky and Brandon did everything in there power to ensure a safe and fun trip Ricky was always there to assist, and when brandy was not steering the boat he was also there to help, a couple of great guys that have a true passion and love for what they do. If you guys are reading this, thank you again.
ash t May 26, 2022
Omg this was SUCH a fun day, lots of fish caught, even a shark! Crew and Captain were AWESOME, so friendly and helpful! Highly recommend, even if you aren't a fisherperson, they will turn you into one!
Michelle Conover June 6, 2023
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
We went on a private fishing trip with Captain Alec & Will which made the trip! They were super helpful & knowledgeable. We caught a bunch of sea bass, pigfish, & sharks. Definitely would recommend these guys they go above & beyond to make sure you get something while out on the water! Enjoy a little glimpse of our great day.
Kayla McCann September 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
Excellent fishing trip! We went on a 4 hour private charter. Our first mate was Oscar who is amazing!!!! He was so informative and made sure that we were having a great trip! He let us do the fishing as he baited and helped keep us reeling at the right speed! We all loved when we caught 3 sharks at the same time-2 on one pole and one on another which promptly got tangled! Our Captain did an excellent job of putting us right where we needed to be for the fish! It was a great trip and I would highly recommend them!

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.
