Fishing Seasons
We offer year-round fishing charters and fishing excursions weather permitting.
While we try to provide the most up-to-date fishing knowledge around, we know that most seasons have similar fish running. If you’re coming in the following seasons, we have mini-guides below that explain the type of fish you’ll likely catch. From shore fishing to offshore and deep sea, check the charts for what you’ll likely be gunning for.
Spring & Summer
In the hot Myrtle Beach months, things are busy! All the piers are full and vacationers are in full swing. This is the most popular season for good reason: the fishing is great!
Inland Fishing
- Red Drum
- Flounder
- Black Drum
- Trout
- Spanish Mackerel & More
Inshore Fishing:
- Flounder
- Spanish Mackerel
- King Mackerel
- Black Tip Sharks
- Hammer Heads
- Fine Tooth
- Cobia
- Sea Bass (Bottom Fishing)
Off Shore Fishing
The most popular, offshore fishing in Myrtle Beach is usually where most charter captains will take you. You’ll probably go about four to five miles off the coast or sometimes run the back creeks all over Little River and Calabash.
You’ll be snagging fish like:
-
- Snapper
-
Amber Jack
-
Grouper
-
Barracuda
-
Sea Bass
-
Mahi
- Sharks
- Cobia Fish
- Black Bass
- Trigger Fish
Deep Sea Fishing & Blue Water Trolling
If you are lucky enough to go out on a big boat for a deep-sea fishing adventure, you’ll be able to make some pretty memorable catches! Offshore fishing has some serious advantages like deeper waters, usually less competition (you can find a spot where no one else is fishing), and more privacy. For our deep-sea fishermen and women, you’ll be snagging the best fish in Myrtle Beach.

Fall & Winter
When things cool down, some fish start their breeding and become much more active while others slow down. There are fewer charter boats (although some do run all year round). But, that doesn’t mean there is nothing to catch! Check out the options fish we see running in the off-season.
