    Everything we hoped for and MORE!

    Murrells Inlet Half Day • 3 adults • 1 child

    Larry asked us what we wanted to target and he put us on every single thing we asked for. We asked to just catch fish (hopefully a keeper), catch a ribbonfish, and see dolphins. We were catching fish faster than we could get the previous fish in the water and put more bait on hooks. On multiple occasions we had double hookups with fish that were nearly all over 25 inches long. We ended up with one keeper that was 24 and a half inches, caught one beautiful ribbonfish, saw dolphins, and caught over 10 species of fish. We caught too many Red Drum to count, and we had to throw all of them but one back because they were all too big to keep - what a great prohlem to have! Larry was outstanding and we'd recommend anyone to book with him. He knows the area, knows the fish, and knows how to keep you happy. WHAT AN AMAZING TIME WE HAD TODAY!

    Fishing with Larry

    Murrells Inlet Half Day • 3 adults • 1 child

    We had a fantastic fishing trip with Captain Larry in South Carolina. Captain Larry was friendly, patient, and worked hard to help everyone catch fish. He took the time to answer questions, share tips, and make sure everyone on board had a great experience. We caught fish, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed every minute of the trip. Captain Larry’s positive attitude and knowledge made the day even better. I would highly recommend booking a trip with him if you’re looking for a great day on the water. Thanks again, Captain Larry, for an unforgettable experience!

    Best part of our vacation!

    Murrells Inlet Half Day • 4 adults

    We had the best experience with Captain Larry! It was our first time saltwater fishing and chartering, so we went it without any expectations. Captain Larry set the bar pretty high! We caught mostly red drum and flounder, and also a few oddballs (eel and lizard fish). Captain Larry was so helpful, informative, and friendly. He took us to several different fishing spots and even the rides in between locations was fun. Simply the best experience and the highlight of our vacation. Can’t wait for our next charter with Captain Larry!

    Don’t hesitate to book

    Murrells Inlet Half Day • 4 adults • 2 children

    Although the fishing conditions were tough, Captain Larry did a great job keeping our kids engaged and baited. He was kind enough to get soaked himself while we waited under shelter for a pop up storm to pass, and even extended our fishing time to accomodate for the time lost during the storm, we appreciate the stand up guy he is and the extra time he gave us! We managed to land a couple fish and a really fun redfish!! We had a good time and would highly recommend Captain Larry!!

    Awesome Captain!

    Murrells Inlet Half Day - 1:00 PM • 2 adults

    Larry was awesome, his boat was a little small but other than that, we had a great time. We caught redfish, flounder, whiteing, even some bluefish. Larry was super accomodating to us even though the bite wasn’t the greatest and we went midday. I would highly recommend him to any level of fisherman. My son and I do this about 2 times a year and Larry got us catching fish like we were pros. We could tell he really knew the area well and all of the honeyholes for all sorts of fish like flounder, trout, and redfish. Larry was awesome!
