Welcome to Shallow Minded Charters! Join Captain Jesse, and his crew who grew up fishing in the area and knows how to make a successful day on the water. They offer year-round personalized fishing trips, which are a great opportunity for an unforgettable experience with your family or friends. A day like this is great for children, beginners, and the most experienced anglers who want to relax and have fun.

You’ll be fishing on a 23’ Pathfinder that accommodates up to 4 guests.  She’s powered by a 250 HP Yamaha outboard engine that reaches the speed of 50 knots. This means you’ll reach your fishing spot quickly and have more time for catching fish. The boat also features a live bait tank, a cooler, and all sorts of navigational electronics.

Explore the waters around Myrtle Beach and the lower Brunswick County beaches. Depending on the tides and season, you can go after Spanish Mackerel, Flounder, Sharks, Redfish, Speckled Trout, Cobia, Black Drum, King Mackerel, Spade Fish, Black Sea Bass, and Bluefish. Use either live bait or artificial lures that the captain prepares in advance.

The idea is to have hands-on experience and learn as much as you can by practicing it immediately. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never held a rod in your hands before - you’ll be landing fish in just a few hours. All fishing equipment is included in the price, as well as your license. You only need to pack your snacks and drinks for the day.

I was born and raised in South Carolina’s beautiful low country fishing for Redfish and all other species! I love fishing so much I thought it would be a great thing to share this experience with other people from all over who have never had a chance to do so or make some memories with some avid anglers!
