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!!

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).

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!

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.

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
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.

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!

Me and my boyfriend had a blast today on our 3/4 day with captain Josh and First mate Dawson. With taking two different charters out on our trip this one was by far the best Josh and Dawson were amazing to us and everyone else on board constantly helping everyone with unhooking fish and baiting. We will for be booking another trip with these gentlemen again hopefully in the near future. Not two mention we saw dolphins so we got a two for one deal.
Liea Daley April 6, 2023
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!

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.

Kaylee Muellenbach 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
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.

Three of us went out on the blue runner today. 8/30/24. Captain Henry and Dillon did an excellent job putting on fish. Pretty much caught fish the whole day. We did the 8 hour trip. Highly recommend.
scott woodland September 29, 2024
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
Had so much fun. The crew was super helpful at taking our fish off the hooks and rebaiting our lines immediately. Definitely will be back!
Mayson Riggins October 15, 2024
Always enjoy going out with the crew. They are good at what they do. Always catch fish with them. Enjoyable day trip.
david lynn November 19, 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
My daughter + I took the 4:30- 4hr trip. It was amazing. Captain Brandon + 1st Mate Ricky made the trip even better. We caught lots of black sea bass, met some nice people, + the sunset was breath taking. We're looking forward to coming back again + taking the allday trip. Highly recommend!!! Thank you Brenda + Natalie.
Brenda Messer April 26, 2022
What a great group of captain and mates they put in a 100% .. will be back again and again
gary Williams April 26, 2022
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
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.
aaron riley June 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
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

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!

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.
