    Fun Family Outing

    4 Hour Trip – Nearshore - 4:00 PM4 adults2 children

    Had a great time out on the water with my wife and daughter! Neither of them are experienced anglers, but they both had a blast. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable about the area, and shared some great stories about the local history along the way. We enjoyed beautiful views of the North Myrtle Beach skyline as well as the surrounding protected natural areas. The fishing was fun too—we caught a bonnethead shark while bottom fishing and several Spanish mackerel while trolling. More than anything, it was a great day making memories together as a family. That’s what it’s all about.

    Great Day on the Water!

    4 Hour Trip – Nearshore - 11:30 AM6 adults1 child

    For this multi-generational family trip of naive midwesterns, Captain Orlando and 1st Mate Chris were amazing! Both Orlando and Chris were genuine and kind, providing a memorable trip for all of us. We caught a lot of Spanish Mackrel (delicious), saw several pods of dolphins, a hammerhead, and countless rays! Chris was amazing with our timid 9 year old daughter and took time to ensure she was comfortable and excited throughout the trip! Couldn’t ask for any more! Thanks Big O!!!

    Great first offshore trip

    4 Hour Trip – Nearshore - 11:30 AM5 adults1 child

    Captain O and Chris great. We explained what our goals for the trip were, and they made it happen. Captain O knows the waters well and knew exactly where to put us. We caught a great haul of Spanish Mackerel and then transitioned to shark fishing, getting one good sized Atlantic Sharpnose. Chris took the time to filet everything well.

    Fantastic trip!

    6 Hour Nearshore Trip (AM)2 adults

    Big O and and Chris found us fish! My son and I have been fishing for a long time. We rolled the dice on FishingBooker since we have never been to the Myrtle area. After a couple hours we thought it was going to be a slow day. Big O is knowledgeable, communicated with other boats, and worked hard to get us on the bite! We caught 20 Bonita in our 6hr trip. Patience and persistence won the day for us. We will definitely book with Big O the next time we’re in town.

    Response from Captain

    it was a slow start but thankfully we found them. Hope to see you again on your next trip. Thanks again for choosing us. Tight lines.

    GREAT EXPERIENCE

    6 Hour Nearshore Trip (PM)6 adults

    What a great trip Big Os provided us! the boat was very nice and up to date he had all the safety equipment you could have. Clean bathroom on the boat with plenty of room. The Captain and first mate were very easy to get along with and very knowledgeable when it came to fishing definitely an experienced crew worth every penny. We caught fish and even at one point all four of us had a fish on the line! i give them a 5 star review because they deserve it not because we caught a bunch of fish because the boat was very nice and they Captain and first mate were awsome! the catching fish was just a plus haha we will be booking again in the future!
