Next Lvl Sportfishing – Nearshore 

Hoping to go fishing in Murrells Inlet? That’s what Next Lvl Sportfishing is here for!

Amberjack, Cobia, Grunt, Jack Crevalle, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Black Seabass, Scup (Porgy), Sheepshead, Vermilion Snapper, Spadefish, Spanish Mackerel, Gray Triggerfish, and more can be found in these waters if conditions are right.

During the trip you will be spinning, trolling, drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

Families making a day of it will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don’t have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there’s one on board. Don’t forget to bring snacks so that everyone stays happy and energized!

You’ll be casting lines from a 25’ Pursuit center console that holds up to 4 passengers. It has downriggers, and all the essentials. There’s a toilet on board for your convenience. You’ll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is included, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

You’ll have the help of a First Mate to put you on fish. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

Before coming aboard, you will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), bottled water, and sunglasses. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, so long as you avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to and book a trip with Next Lvl Sportfishing!
