Reel in the Big Ones: 10-Hour Myrtle Beach Charter

Get ready to chase some serious fish on this full-day offshore adventure out of Myrtle Beach. We're talking about the kind of trip where you might just land that once-in-a-lifetime catch. Our captains know these waters like the back of their hand, and they're itching to put you on the fish. Whether you're a seasoned angler or it's your first time wetting a line, this 10-hour charter is the real deal. We'll run to where the big boys are biting and give you a shot at some of the most sought-after gamefish in the Atlantic.

What's the Deal with This Trip?

Picture this: You're cruising out of the inlet as the sun's coming up, rod holders full of top-notch gear, and the excitement's building. We're not messing around with the little stuff close to shore – we're heading to the offshore honey holes where the real action is. You've got 10 solid hours to make it happen, which means plenty of time to try different spots and techniques. Our boat's got room for six, so bring your crew or make some new fishing buddies. And let me tell you, when that reel starts screaming and you're hooked up with something big, it doesn't matter if you're best friends or just met – you're all in it together.

How We Roll on the Water

Offshore fishing is a whole different ballgame, and we've got it dialed in. We'll be doing a mix of trolling and bottom fishing, depending on what's hot. When we're trolling, we'll have lines out the back with lures or rigged baits, cruising at the perfect speed to entice those pelagics. For bottom fishing, we'll anchor up or drift over structure, dropping bait down to where the grouper and snapper hang out. We've got all the gear you need – sturdy rods, quality reels, and a variety of lures and bait. All you need to bring is your game face and maybe a snack or two. Oh, and don't forget the camera – you're gonna want proof when you're telling fish stories later.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Wahoo: These speedsters are the drag-screamers of the ocean. They're like the cheetahs of the sea, known to hit lures at over 60 mph. Wahoo can show up year-round, but fall is prime time. They're not just fast; they're delicious too. Landing one of these striped torpedoes is always a highlight.

Red Snapper: These are the crown jewels of bottom fishing. With their bright red color and tasty white meat, they're always a top target. Red snapper season is limited, so when it's open, we go hard after these beauties. They love to hang around reefs and wrecks, and pulling one up from the depths is always a thrill.

Gag Grouper: These bruisers will test your arms and your gear. They're structure-huggers, so when you hook one, you've got to muscle them up quick before they wrap you around something. Fall and winter are the best times for gags. They're not the prettiest fish in the sea, but man, do they put up a fight.

King Mackerel: Kings are the sprinters of the ocean. When they hit, be ready for a smoking run. We often troll for these guys, and seeing one skyrocket on a bait is something you won't forget. They're around most of the year but really show up in numbers during the spring and fall runs.

Mahi Mahi: Also known as dolphin (the fish, not Flipper), these are the acrobats of the offshore world. They're beautiful fish, with electric blue and green colors that'll make your eyes pop. Mahi love to hang around floating debris, so we're always on the lookout for weedlines or floating boards. They're great eating and even better fighting.

Silk Snapper: These deep-water beauties are a real treat. We have to drop way down to get them, but it's worth it. They've got a pinkish-red color and fight hard all the way up. Silks are around year-round, and they make for some mighty fine eating.

Cobia: Cobia are the bruisers of the near-shore waters. They've got a mean look and an attitude to match. These fish will test your stamina – they just don't know when to quit. Spring is the best time for cobia, but we can run into them all summer long. They're curious fish, often following the boat, which can make for some exciting sight-casting.

Yellowfin Tuna: When we're talking big game, yellowfin are right up there. These torpedo-shaped powerhouses will have you sweating buckets. They usually show up in the warmer months, and when they do, it's game on. The fight is epic, and the sushi-grade meat is out of this world. Landing a yellowfin is always cause for celebration.

Time to Lock In Your Spot

Look, I'm not gonna sugarcoat it – this trip is the real deal for anyone serious about offshore fishing. We're talking about a full day on the water with a crew that knows how to put you on the fish. Whether you're after that trophy catch or just want to feel the pull of something big, this is your chance. The ocean's calling, and the fish are waiting. Don't sit there dreaming about it – grab your spot now. These trips fill up fast, especially when the bite is on. So what are you waiting for? Book your charter, and let's go make some fishing memories that'll last a lifetime. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Learn more about the species

Cobia

Cobia are powerful fish that love structure. You'll find them around buoys, wrecks, and even big rays or sharks. They average 20-40 pounds but can top 100 pounds. Cobia are most active in spring and summer as they migrate north. Anglers prize cobia for their hard fights and excellent table fare. When hooked, they make strong runs and can be a real handful near the boat. The meat is firm and white, great for grilling or sushi. To catch cobia, try sight-fishing with live eels or big jigs. They're curious fish, so sometimes just leaving a bait near them will trigger a strike. Here's a tip: always have a pitch rod ready. Cobia often show up unexpectedly, and you'll want to be ready to cast quickly before they disappear.

Cobia

Gag Grouper

Gag grouper are bottom-dwellers that love structure. You'll find them around reefs, wrecks, and rocky areas in depths from 60-250 feet. They're hefty fish, averaging 10-20 pounds but can grow up to 50 pounds or more. The best time to target gags is fall through winter when they move to shallower waters to spawn. Anglers prize them for their hard-fighting nature and excellent taste. When you hook one, be ready for it to dive straight for cover - you'll need to muscle them away from the bottom. Live bait like pinfish or squid works well, but artificial lures can be effective too. Try jigging near the bottom or slow-trolling with deep-diving plugs. Here's a tip: when you feel that telltale thump, reel fast and pull up hard to get their head turned before they can duck back into the rocks. It's all about quick reactions with these bruisers!

King Mackerel

King mackerel, or "kings", are speed demons of the sea. They're found in open water from 20-200 feet deep, often near reefs or dropoffs. These sleek predators average 10-20 pounds but can top 100 pounds. Spring and fall are prime times as kings migrate along the coast. Anglers love targeting them for their blistering runs and acrobatic jumps when hooked. The meat's good eating too, especially when smoked. To catch kings, try trolling with live bait like blue runners or menhaden. Spoons and rattling plugs work well too. Here's a local trick: when you see birds diving, there's a good chance kings are feeding below. Motor over quietly and get ready for action. Just watch those teeth when you're unhooking them - they're razor sharp!

King Mackerel

Mahi Mahi or Common Dolphinfish

Mahi-mahi, also called dorado, are some of the most beautiful fish in the ocean. You'll find them in open water, often near floating debris or weed lines. They average 15-30 pounds but can grow over 60 pounds. Summer is prime time for mahi fishing as they follow warm currents. Anglers love targeting them for their acrobatic fights and delicious meat. Plus, they're just stunning to look at with those electric blue and green colors. To catch mahi, try trolling with ballyhoo or small lures near floating structure. They're also suckers for live bait like pilchards. Here's a tip: when you hook one, leave it in the water. Others will often follow it up, giving you a shot at multiple fish. Just be ready for some crazy jumps and runs when they realize they're hooked!

Mahi Mahi or Common Dolphinfish

Red Snapper

Red snapper are prized for their firm, white flesh and sweet flavor. You'll find them hanging around reefs and rocky bottoms in depths of 30-600 feet. They average 1-2 feet long but can grow up to 3 feet and 35 pounds. The best time to target these fish is during their spawning season from May to October. That's when they gather in large numbers over structure. Anglers love red snapper not just for the meat, but also for the challenge. They put up a good fight and can be tricky to pull away from the bottom. To catch one, use heavy tackle and drop your bait right into the structure. Fresh cut bait like cigar minnows or squid works well. Here's a local tip - if you're having trouble hooking up, try drifting instead of anchoring. Sometimes a moving bait is the key to enticing a bite from those big ones down deep.

Red Snapper

Silk Snapper

Silk snapper are deep-water dwellers found over rocky bottoms in 400-800 feet. They're typically 1-2 feet long and weigh 5-10 pounds. These fish are prized for their delicate, flaky meat. The best time to target silks is at night when they move to shallower waters to feed. Anglers enjoy the challenge of deep-dropping for these tasty fish. It takes some skill to detect those subtle bites way down deep. To catch silk snapper, use heavy tackle and electric reels with multiple-hook rigs. Squid or cut bait works well. Here's a local tip: try glow-in-the-dark lures or add small cyalume sticks to your bait. That extra flash can make a big difference in the dark depths where these fish live.

Silk Snapper

Wahoo Fish

Wahoo are lightning-fast predators that'll give you a run for your money. These sleek fish can reach speeds up to 60 mph, making for an exciting fight when hooked. You'll find them in the warmer offshore waters, often hanging around floating debris or weed lines. Wahoo average 3-5 feet long but can grow over 8 feet and 100 pounds. They're most active in summer and fall when water temps are warmest. Anglers love targeting wahoo for their hard-fighting nature and excellent table fare. The meat is firm, white, and mild - perfect for grilling or sushi. To land one, try high-speed trolling at 12-15 knots with wire leaders. Use lures like bulletheads or skirted ballyhoo. My go-to trick is varying your trolling speed to trigger strikes. These fish hit hard and fast, so be ready for action when that reel starts screaming!

Wahoo Fish

Yellowfin Tuna

Yellowfin tuna are offshore speedsters found in the open ocean. They average 30-100 pounds but can grow over 400 pounds. You'll find them in the warmer months, often around temperature breaks or underwater structure. Anglers love yellowfin for their blistering runs and delicious meat. When hooked, they'll test your stamina with long, powerful fights. The meat is prized for sushi and searing. To catch yellowfin, try trolling with spreader bars or chunking with live bait. They're also suckers for topwater lures at dawn and dusk. Here's a local tip: look for birds working over bait schools. That's often a sign of feeding tuna below. Just be ready for some serious action when you hook into one of these footballs with fins!
