I booked a shark fishing charter with Captain Shad and it was incredible! We started out catching some mackerel which we hooked 6. After that we went to shark fishing but we didn’t end up getting a shark on. Captain Shad made things easy and was extremely fun! I would absolutely recommend Captain Shad’s charter and I’ll be booking again when I go back to Myrtle Beach.

Had the pleasure of being out with Capt. Shad today. Two seven-year-olds and two dads, he was great with our sons and us. He is a real professional - very knowledgeable about the NC/SC area and fishing. Really patience with our sons, helping them learn the fundamentals of fishing as well as boating. There are lots of charters and boat captains, but Shad is a professional and it comes out after a couple of hours with him. Look forward to fishing with him in the future.

This is our second trip with Captain Shad and we had a great day. It was the first time that we brought our 5 year old, and he LOVED it. We saw some dolphins, caught a bunch of spanish mackerel and hooked a shark, but couldn’t reel him in. I highly recommend any trip with Captain Shad!

Had a great time with Captain Shad. Equipment was in good condition, boat was nice, and Shad was great as well. The fish weren’t biting due to very poor weather conditions and Shad offered to cut the trip short for a discount. Very impressed with his honesty as he could have sailed us around for hours knowing we wouldn’t catch anything. If you’re looking for a fishing trip Captain Shad is your man. We will be booking him again next time we are in town.

Captain Shad gave my husband and I a great experience during our inshore fishing trip. Besides being extremely knowledgeable regarding navigating the waters and where to find the fish, he is also a great story teller. No matter the questions we asked, he had an answer ready with additional details making it fun to learn. He is laid back and fun to be with. Randy and I highly recommend Captain Shad for your next fishing expedition!!

My husband and I booked the 3 hour inshore trip with Captain Shad, and we had a blast! Captain Shad was very friendly and he really put effort into making sure we had an enjoyable trip and caught plenty of fish. We had the chance to see some dolphins, caught plenty of speckled trout, and Captain Shad cleaned & filleted the fish for us to bring home. His knowledge and experience can’t be beat. If we are ever back in the Myrtle Beach area, we will absolutely be booking with him again. I’d highly... More
