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!

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.

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.

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.

Robert Harris October 29, 2023
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.

Great fishing experience at a very affordable rate.
Steve Adams 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
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
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!
GARRETT LEWIS November 29, 2023
This is hands down the best fishing experience I’ve ever had. We took our 12 year old son for his birthday on a 1/2 day trip. The crew and fishing spots were amazing. They were hands on and helped us every bit of the way. Kept our hooks baited, educated us on the types of fish we caught. They remembered each of our names and just made the whole trip fun! Highly highly recommend this charter!!! Thanks little river fishing for this great memory!
Tatiana Verdeck May 26, 2022
My friend and I went on the half day specialty fishing tour with Captain Lee and Alex, we had a blast! I had never fished before and it had been a few years for my friend, and they both made us feel safe and comfortable. Captain Lee and Alex were there to assist putting bait on the hook and cheering us on when we caught any fish. Couldn’t have been a better charter, we recommend for ALL!! Tip the crew they deserve it!

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
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

Went out for a half day charter. Lee is a great captain and Kelly was awesome with helping the group out. Very attentive and friendly. 10/10 would recommend for anyone.
Dakota Sweet November 29, 2023
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
What a great group of captain and mates they put in a 100% .. will be back again and again
gary Williams April 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
Michael and the rest of the crew were great
Brock Niichel October 30, 2023
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!

mike ambrow October 6, 2023
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
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.
Samantha Gettys September 19, 2022
Frequent flyer here. Captain Josh and Dawson and Captain Lee will put you on BUCKET LIST FISH. Hands down the best fishing charter company on the east coast. Highly recommend the Gulf Stream charter for serious fun and fish. Shout out to Captain Brittany, as well as Mike, Blake, Tiffany, Kelsey, first mate Cameron, and Destiny and Captain Henry. Thanks for the priceless memories and camaraderie !
Vincent Klomps November 29, 2023
Rex and Josh were awesome!
Kaylee Muellenbach 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
David heck 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! ???????????☝️☝️☝️☝️???

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.
