First the captain called me and said another day would be better for our trip if we could move it so we did. Our boat was cleaned and well organized with the captain being polite and responsive.
Day started off on time and we caught bait. While catching bait we caught our target bait and some sea trout. Catching bait was fun and quick and the sea trout were a nice bonus catch.
We then targeted the Goliath grouper and we were on the fish almost immediately. My son hooked up and lost one but then landed it. We moved for some bigger fish and I caught one then my son caught another one. We had three Goliath groupers in about a hour and a half. All grouper were in the50 lbs range and fought hard. They were fun to catch. He said let’s go find some bigger ones but there were a lot of tarpon around and our first choice was a tarpon charter so we pivoted.
There were lots of tarpon around and my son really wanted to try to catch a tarpon so the captain pivoted to tarpon fishing for us. He was upfront and honest telling us tarpon are hit or miss especially this time of year and we didn’t have the right bait for them. We didn’t catch any tarpon but the captain tried a few spots and a few different techniques. All in all a great day and I would definitely book another charter with him.

Look no further then this man right here to lock in your next fishing trip. Reliable, on time, and honest. Capt. Chris took us out to get on some tarpon and that’s exactly what he did. Bite on the first cast. Landed fish of a lifetime. Incredible experience. His equipment was top notch as well as his boat. He was entertaining and got the job done. Book with him and you won’t regret it.

We did back creek fishing and near ocean fishing around a jetty.  Caught a bunch of flounders close to keeper size but only had 1 keeper.  Caught several ribbon fish which were fun to catch but not an edible fish.  Caught a small bass also.  Captain Chris was great.  He took us to some of his favorite spots and explained why each spot was good for fishing.  He was patient with my wife and showed her how to cast.  My two boys also thought Captain Chris was great. Showing them how to cast and explained why we were at several fishing spots.  I highly recommend Captain Chris and Southern Charter Co at Murrells inlet.

Capt Chris took us out tarpon fishing. He works together with other captains on the water to make sure he put us on the hot bite that day. Recommended forsure.
