If you're ready to enjoy fishing in Murrells Inlet, we've got you covered with Black Diamond Fishing Adventures!

These waters are known for Flounder, Spanish Mackerel, Spotted Seatrout, Redfish, Black Drum, Sheepshead, Weakfish, and more. On the day of your trip, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle, and you're welcome to keep any fish you catch, assuming they're legal to keep. The crew can even clean your catch for you. Now that's dinner!

Hop aboard our custom 24' Pontoon that holds up to 6 passengers and has everything you need for a productive day on the water. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter, along with lures. Kids are welcome, so feel free to make it a family adventure.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so all you have to do is show up ready for a good time! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain. Don't leave home without sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray), snacks, and drinks.

Make your reel scream with Black Diamond Fishing Adventures!

Highly recommend fishing with Captain Jack

VERIFIED

Our family had a wonderful time with Captain Jack! Being a true local guy, he knew all the spots, had some great stories, and great sense of humor. Ron was fantastic as well and patient with our kids. We caught a bunch of flounder, a blue fish, and a tiny toad fish that we released. Everyone caught something! We look forward to doing it again on our next visit out from CA. Definitely a memorable experience.

Capt Jack was a great Capt and we had an enjoyable time. Fish didnt come out like they should have but the Capt got on some fish to catch. If you want an enjoyable fishing trip give the Black Diamond guys a call you won't regret it.

Rough day with the bite

VERIFIED

We had a pretty rough day when it came to fish biting, my dad caught 1 small toadfish and that was the only thing landed. However, the day was a huge success and we had a blast with captain jack. I also got to fight a 75+ pound spotted ray for over 30 minutes on 15lb test braid which ended up breaking off the line. Would definitely get with captain jack again!
