Captain Ryan here, thanks for checking out my page. I have been taking groups on fishing adventures right here in Little River Inlet since 2006. Please take time to scroll through my photos. I add photos often because I am usually catching.

On this vessel, you will be licensed to fish in both South Carolina and North Carolina. Crab trapping, shrimp trawling, and sightseeing are also options along with fishing. Catching live bait with the cast net is a must-see in itself.

If the weather is in our favor we can take the 25' Carolina Skiff up to 8 miles out for Mackerel, Barracuda, Shark, and a variety of other fish species. If the weather is not favorable or if you just prefer the calmest of water then we can fish the backwater creeks and inlet for Flounder, Reds, Trout, and a variety of other fish.

The maximum number of passengers for the trip is 6 and you should bring your snacks, drinks, sunblock, cameras, and other personal items. Everything else you need for a good time on the water is provided. I hope to take you and your family or friends on an ocean adventure soon.

    Great Captain, great with the kids!

    Half Day Trip - 1:00 PM on April 13, 2026 • 6 adults • 3 children

    Captain Ryan was very communicative with our trip about all the details and tips that we needed before our trip. When we arrived Captain Ryan met us and helped us get setup on the boat. He was great with the kids and working with them on catching fish and pointing things out to them. We were able to go to a few different spots and caught a few different types of fish which the kids loved on their first charter fishing trip. We would love to go with Captain Ryan again and highly recommend him to others!

    Half Day Trip (7 AM) on July 18, 2026 • 5 adults • 2 children

    Took my 4 boys out for a morning trip and had a great time with Captain Ryan. He was very knowledgeable and made sure we got some cool catches. He knew the area well, we moved from spot to spot and caught a variety of fish. My boys also aporeciated he caught his own bait for us to use on the way out and the drive back through the marsh area was very memorable. we would recommend this to any family looking to have a good time with a knowledgeable Captain.

    Great fishing trip with Captain Ryan!

    Half Day Trip (7 AM) on September 21, 2026 • 2 adults

    Captain Ryan did a great job finding the hot fishing spots quickly and moving if the fish were not biting. He was pleasant to fish with and assisted quickly with new bait and setting poles. We caught a wide range of fish types and even saw some dolphins. Thank you Captain Ryan for the great morning!

    Ryan was awesome. It was a great time! He put in the work to get good bait and also put us on fish. Plenty of opportunities of catching fish and bunches of fish put in the boat. We would definitely recommend him!

    kids had a blast!

    Half Day Trip on March 27, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

    We brought our 3 boys (15/13/10) and they had a blast! we caught red drum, sharks, toad fish, croakers, sting rays, and a variety of crabs. We also saw dolphins! The little channels were cool and calm. The actual ocean is where they caught majority, water was a little rough but that was expected. We would love to come back in the summer as he said the water warms up and fishing is even better. Ryan cleaned our fish and recommended the Crab Catcher restaurant because they cook what you catch. Also very good!

    Great Captain!

    Half Day Trip on July 5, 2026 • 5 adults • 1 child

    Captain Ryan was so nice and courteous. He genuinely cared that we caught fish and provided tips to us. We had 3 teenagers and 2 moms and he helped all of us. I wish we caught more fish but it was the afternoon and the tide wasn't hekoung us. but I would definitely use him again!

    Captain Ryan is an amazing one man crew! With 3 inexperienced boys he took the time to show them how to fish. I would highly recommend Captain Ryan.

The Perfect Day!
Half Day Trip on June 28, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

Captain Ryan was absolutely wonderful. He is the definition of a true fisherman! Communication was great from booking til day of the trip. He made sure to ask what we wanted to catch before the trip and was well prepared. It was a super cool experience to catch all our bait fresh before actually fishing. He is so knowledgeable of the area and where to catch what fish. He provided so much education and was super patient with our family! He made sure everyone caught something before the day was gone. We had the perfect day and can’t wait to go again!

Reported catch:
Flounder

Great day on the water
Half Day Trip (7 AM) on April 11, 2026 • 4 adults

We had a great morning on the water with Captain Ryan. He was able to get us onto big slot-limit reds in the inland waters. We then caught a nice speckled trout and some small blues out by the jetties. After getting back to the boat launch, Captain Ryan quickly cleaned and bagged our keepers. He is safe on the water. Very knowledgeable about the area and the fish. We will definitely contact him again when we fish here.

Reported catch:

The Angler's Choice Award is given to listings that consistently deliver a high-quality service and earn great reviews from customers.

I come from a commercial fishing family and I started commercial fishing at the age of 10. By high school my brother and I were fishing 600 lobster traps out of South Portland, Maine. I graduated from university in 1996 with a BS in Physical Education then sold the lobster business to pursue teaching. After two long years in the teaching profession I moved to Horry County to pursue South Atlantic salt life. I obtained my USCG captains license in 2000 and started offering fishing trips in 2001 from Murrells Inlet, SC. In 2006 I moved the business to Little River Inlet and have been enjoying it ever since. I am also a retired career firefighter / EMT from the city of Myrtle Beach. It is my hope to share my life of experience on the Atlantic Ocean with you.
