Reel in Big Game: 6-Hour Offshore Fishing Adventure

Get ready to head out into the big blue off Myrtle Beach for some serious offshore action! This 6-hour fishing trip is your ticket to hooking into some of the Atlantic's most sought-after gamefish. We're talking King Mackerel, Sharks, Sea Bass, Barracuda, and Spanish Mackerel – the kind of fish that'll make your arms ache and your heart race. Whether you're a seasoned salt or it's your first time wetting a line, our experienced captain will put you on the fish and make sure you have a blast doing it. With all the gear provided, you just need to show up ready for an unforgettable day on the water.

What to Expect on the Water

As soon as we clear the inlet, the excitement starts to build. Our 6-hour trip gives us plenty of time to reach the offshore grounds where the big boys play. You'll feel the salt spray on your face as we cruise to our secret spots, keeping an eye out for birds working the surface – always a good sign. Once we arrive, it's all hands on deck as we set out lines and wait for that first screaming run. The beauty of offshore fishing is you never know what might take the bait – could be a toothy shark or a speedy mackerel. Our crew will be right there with you, offering tips and making sure you're comfortable with the gear. And don't worry if you're new to this – we'll have you fishing like a pro in no time.

Trolling, Bottom Fishing, and More

We mix it up out here to maximize your chances of a great catch. Trolling is our bread and butter for species like King Mackerel and Barracuda. We'll set out a spread of lines with lures or live bait skipping along the surface – when a fish hits, you'll know it! For the bottom dwellers like Sea Bass, we'll drop lines straight down with cut bait or jigs. It's all about reading the water, finding the structure, and presenting the right bait in the right place. Our captain's got years of experience and knows these waters like the back of his hand. We've got top-notch gear too – heavy-duty rods and reels that can handle whatever decides to bite. Just listen to the crew, and you'll be hauling in fish before you know it.

What Anglers Are Saying

"Captain Ed and his first mate are awesome and Made our trip so enjoyable!" - Candice

Species You'll Want to Hook

Thresher Shark: These bad boys are the acrobats of the shark world. Known for their incredibly long, whip-like tails that they use to stun their prey, Threshers can put on quite a show when hooked. They're fast, powerful, and can grow up to 20 feet long. We typically see them in the warmer months, and trust me, when one of these takes your bait, you're in for the fight of your life. It's catch-and-release for these beauties, but the photo op is worth its weight in gold.

Spanish Mackerel: These speedsters are a blast to catch and even better on the dinner table. They school up in big numbers, especially in the spring and fall. Spanish Mackerel are known for their blistering runs and aerial acrobatics when hooked. We often catch them while trolling with small, flashy lures. They might not be the biggest fish in the sea, but pound for pound, they're some of the most fun you can have on light tackle.

King Mackerel: Also known as Kingfish, these are the bigger, meaner cousins of the Spanish Mackerel. Kings can grow over 50 pounds and are prized for their hard-fighting nature and tasty fillets. We usually target them by slow-trolling live bait like menhaden or mullet. When a King hits, be ready – they're known for scorching runs that can empty a reel in seconds. Peak season is typically late spring through fall, but we can find them year-round in our waters.

Barracuda: With their menacing teeth and lightning-fast attacks, Barracuda are the perfect target for adrenaline junkies. These predators are ambush hunters, often following our boat and striking baits with explosive force. They're here all year but are most active in the warmer months. Catching a 'Cuda is all about the visual experience – watching them stalk the bait, then seeing them rocket to the surface in a shower of spray when they hit. It's pure excitement on the end of a line.

Sea Bass: When we want to fill the cooler with some of the tastiest fish in the ocean, we drop lines for Sea Bass. These bottom-dwellers might not look like much, but they fight hard and are absolutely delicious. We find them around reefs and wrecks, usually using cut bait or squid. The best part? They're almost always hungry, making them a great target for anglers of all skill levels. Sea Bass fishing is typically best in the cooler months, but we can find them year-round if we know where to look.
