Flying Fish Charters SC offers customized full and half-day offshore and deep sea fishing trips out of North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, veteran-owned and operated by Captain Brad. Born in Mobile, Alabama and raised around water thanks to his father’s career as a U.S. Coast Guard Navigator, Brad went on to serve 21 years in the U.S. Army before retiring in 2018 and finally living out his dream as a charter boat captain.

Trips run aboard a 33-foot Blackfin fishing boat accommodating up to 6 guests, powered by twin 440 HP Yanmar engines reaching speeds up to 26 knots. The boat features a private toilet, a kitchen, an enclosed cabin, and full navigational and fishing gear. Species targeted depend on distance offshore: closer to shore brings Spanish Mackerel, Kingfish, False Albacore, and Shark, while longer trips reach Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper, Wahoo, Barracuda, and Amberjack. A signature 12-hour trip explores the Gulf Stream 40+ miles offshore for Mahi Mahi, Barracuda, Amberjack, and Wahoo, while a 10-hour Full Day Charter covers bottom fishing (Sea Bass, Snapper, Grouper) and trolling (Spanish Mackerel, King Mackerel, Mahi, Cobia).

Every trip includes fishing equipment and licenses, with the catch cleaned free of charge at the end of the day — guests just need to bring sun protection, food, and drinks. Little River, South Carolina, where the Intracoastal Waterway meets the Atlantic, gives Captain Brad a prime launch point for both inshore creeks and marsh channels and deeper offshore grounds within an hour or two of Myrtle Beach.

With 185 reviews at 4.9/5 on FishingBooker, Flying Fish Charters SC has built an excellent reputation for personalized trips combining skill and deep local knowledge of the Grand Strand’s tides and weather.
