Perrin is one of the best captains I have fished with.  I’ve fished multiple times a year for several years with different captains and it’s always just been “fun”. My day with Perrin was EPIC.  This guy knows the water like the back of his hand, and if a certain technique in a certain spot isn’t working; he’ll completely change the approach and bait we’re using.  By the end of my four hour trip, we were surrounded by others boaters watching us pull up bull reds- utterly baffled as to why they weren’t getting a bite.  I had so much fun I came back for one quick 4 hour trip THE DAY I WAS LEAVING… Yes, I had such a good time the first go around I had to do it one more time before I left for home in Charlotte. 

In the most respectful way possible to the other captains out of Murrells Inlet- don’t waste your money looking at other charters.  I’ve fished just about all of them over the past 10 years of going to my condo, and am kicking myself for not finding Perrin sooner. 

I’ll be back next month for the monster bull Reds that will be arriving, and I am already counting the days.

Tight lines everyone!

See you soon Perrin

First of all thank you again Captain Perrin! We booked a half day inshore trip on a SUPER hot day but he brought us out 16 miles off shore to make sure we had the highest chance of finding the big ones. We were unlucky and the fish weren’t biting dispite his best efforts. However things took an unexpected turn as more than half my party got sea sick even though we took motion sickness medication and never had a history of seasickness. He really accommodated us and made sure he would find calmer waters and made sure we were hydrated as well. Although our fishing time was cut short, he made sure we enjoyed ourselves and took us sightseeing and showed us the secrets of Murrells Inlet. Went home without fish but we were not disappointed at all! We all had a great time and even got some tan! We will be fishing with Southern Saltwater Charters again, see you in October!

Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with us when we were in SC.  We wanted a full day gulf trip for a chance at the big fish, but it was cancelled due to weather.
Before we had to fly home, I found ONE opening with Capt. Perrin for a 4hr nearshore trip.  The fish weren’t in the nearshore that day, but Capt. Perrin did his best to get us on the fish.  Attached is a pic of the Spanish Mackerel my youngest son reeled in.  It was good eating!
We had a good experience with Capt. Perrin and the Marlin Quay Marina.
Thanks Capt. Perrin and please share the pic you took of us!

Greatly exceeded expectations! Nature isn’t always predictable, but Captain Wood was very transparent in his process. Learned a lot about ocean fishing and various kinds of fish. Caught a bunch, including multiple Sea Bass, an Oyster Toad Fish, Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, and an Atlantic Sharpnose Shark. Saw a 10 ft. Tiger Shark that came very close to the boat.

Capt. Wood was really cool and worked very well with all of us. Overall, an epic morning on the water!

We had a great time! Perrin was super easy to get along with, knew what he was doing, and did whatever it took for us to catch fish! He had everything for us so we didn’t have to worry about anything. We will definitely be going back again!!
