ONLY 4.5 MILES FROM THE OCEAN, OUR 4 HR TRIP HAS THE SAME FISHING TIME AS A 5 HR TRIP FROM UP RIVER !
NO WASTED TRAVEL TIME THROUGH NO WAKE ZONES GETTING TO THE INLET, JUST MORE TIME TO FISH!
Legacy Charters is a family-owned business, first started by Captain Mike Masiero and his father. Capt. Mike has passed the torch onto his two sons, Capt. Mike Jr. and Capt. Kyle.
Their boat is “The Kraken,” a 28’ Bertram that’s powered by twin 260 HP Ford engines and completely restored in 2018.
NO DIESEL SMELL or FUMES to bother you on this boat!
This is a spacious vessel, sporting a full walk-in cabin with a bathroom. Having enough room for no less than 6 anglers, she’s a great choice if you’re looking to bring the whole family along for the ride.
Little River is unlike any other port out of the Grand Strand. It offers a wide variety of fish species both inshore and offshore, making it perfect for both longer and shorter trips out. No matter if you’re looking to land some delicious bottom feeders or chase after huge sharks, you’ll have a great time of it! Offshore waters are home to a variety of gamefish like Mahi Mahi, and Tuna!
The price of any given trip includes all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you’ll need for the day. Not only that but whatever you catch will be cleaned and bagged after the trip at no extra charge. The crew will work hard to make sure you have a memorable time on the water, and 15-20% gratuity is very much appreciated.
Hop aboard The Kraken and get ready for an unforgettable fishing adventure. Don’t be surprised if you get hooked for life!

1/2 Day Trip (AM)
Mike Sr and Mike Jr were very patient and accommodating to our party of 6 with 4 boys ages 11, 11, 8, and 2. The older boys had a great time and were so happy with the mess of fish they caught. Despite myself and my 2 year old being sea sick we still had a great time and both Mike's tried to do anything they could to make the trip better for us. Would highly recommend legacy charters to anyone especially those with kids!

6 Hour Mid Shore Trip PM
My husband and I were looking for something to do on vacation while our toddler was in the care of family. This was a perfect relaxing trip with Mike and Mike. We caught a variety of fish. Mike (Jr) cleaned and filleted what we wanted to keep, and a nearby restaurant they recommended fried up a fresh dinner with our catch as soon as we walked off the dock.

4hr Shark Fishing(AM)
Weather and waves were not our friend this day but we still had luck on our hands! We instantly were reeling in shark. Caught 2 Atlantic Sharpnose sharks and a BIG Black Tip Reef Shark! We ended by trolling for Spanish Mackerel which was easily not as fun but fishing none the less! 10-10 would recommend Mike and Mike and Legacy Charters!

Captain Mike and Mike Jr were awesome to fish with. They made sure to stay on the fish and it paid off because I caught a variety of fish. The boat was clean and Mike Jr made sure it stayed that way throughout the trip. If you're looking for results, Captain Mike is your guy. Thanks again for the great day!

Fish were not biting great so they changed tactics and moved to locations where we did end up catching several fish. Ending the day by catching a couple nice sharks. Mike and Mike jr. were great! Definitely going to book with them next time we’re in Myrtle beach.
