Flying Fish Charters SC

Flying Fish Charters will take you on a fishing adventure you’ll never forget out of North Myrtle Beach. Join Captain Brad and get ready for some serious action. Whether you’re fishing for the first time or you already have several trophies under your belt, you’ll have a great time on Capt. Brad’s boat.

Hop aboard a 33’ Blackfin fishing boat that accommodates up to 6 guests. She’s powered by twin 440 HP Yanmar engines and reaches the maximum speed of 26 knots. Featuring a private toilet, an enclosed cabin, and various navigational and fishing gear, this boat has all you need for a successful day on the water.

The species you target depend on how far off the coast you go. Stay closer to the shore and you can go after Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, False Albacore, and Shark. You can also take a longer trip and go a few miles further, which brings Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Wahoo, Barracuda, and Amberjack.

After the trip, the catch is all yours to keep and the captain will clean it for you free of charge. The trip price also includes your fishing equipment and licenses. You only need to pack your sun protection, food, and drinks.

Join for a few hours or for the whole day. Flying Fish Charters SC is ready to take you on an adventure!
