Reeling in Adventure: An 8-Hour Offshore Fishing Excursion
What a day we had out on the water with the crew from Myrtle Beach! Our 8-Hour Offshore Fishing Charter was the perfect way to kick off the April fishing season. The conditions were ideal - clear skies and calm seas made for a comfortable ride as we headed out. Though we didn't manage to land any big prizes, we still had a great time working the water and trying our hand at different techniques. We mixed it up with some deep sea jigging, heavy tackle trolling, and even a bit of light tackle action. The variety kept us on our toes and had us covering plenty of ground to find where the fish were holding. While the bite wasn't as hot as we'd hoped, the camaraderie and overall experience made it a day to remember. Between swapping stories, taking in the coastal views, and just enjoying the peaceful rhythm of being out on the open water, there was never a dull moment. That's what these trips are all about - getting out, disconnecting from the daily grind, and creating some lasting memories with a great group of anglers. If you're looking to book your own unforgettable fishing adventure in Myrtle Beach, I'd highly recommend checking out the team at Lucky Strike Charters. Whether you're an experienced offshore angler or just getting started, their 8-Hour Fishing Charter is the perfect way to dive into the amazing fishery this area has to offer. You never know what might hit the end of your line - Sharks, Amberjacks, Barracuda, Mahi Mahi, or even some feisty King Mackerel. Book your trip today and let's get you out on the water!

Ratings & Reviews Summary
June 5, 2025
Words can't fully capture how incredible the trip was with Captain Eddie and Mongo. I've been on plenty of fishing trips, but this one was by far the best. Fishing is all about the experience, and if we catch something, it's a bonus—and with Lucky Strike, they nailed it. We got to relax while Mongo handled everything, but when the poles went off, it was time to fish! We reeled in Spanish mackerel and spinner sharks, and for me, catching the sharks was an unforgettable thrill—the power of the fight is something I'll remember. The friendly and welcoming crew made the trip even better. My girlfriend caught the biggest fish of the day—a massive 74” spinner shark—and we can’t wait to have it on our wall this Christmas!

The captain answered the phone personally and offered great advice on where to fish and what was biting, ensuring we had a successful day despite the 25 mph winds. He was spot on—we had a steady catch and even dragged a net for live bait, which was a new and interesting experience. The mate was friendly, knowledgeable, and worked hard to make sure we had the best possible day despite the rough conditions. He’s going to be an awesome dad this December!

Captain Ed and Mongo took excellent care of us from start to finish! We caught bait fish, saw several dolphins, and even reeled in a 5” shark. With kids on board, the crew was patient and took the time to explain everything to them. Mongo was a lot of fun and a fantastic coach! After we got back, Mongo filleted the shark for our dinner. It was a trip we’ll always remember, and as a bonus... I’m now officially the coolest aunt! Thank you for an unforgettable family experience.

The captain on Sunday morning, September 22 purposely ran over my line while I was actively fighting a fish. No apology was offered from the company. What a joke these people are.
June 5, 2025
This was the most awesome fishing trip ever! Ed was an amazing captain and put us on the fish we wanted to catch and Brian was awesome and worked so hard helping us the whole time! Two super fun guys and we'll never choose another charter! Can't wait til next time!
June 5, 2025
If you have a large group, DO NOT DO IT! We had a party of 11 and over half of our group never touched a fishing line. Only four lines were in the water at a time. Only three fish were caught. Overall, not a good experience and the most expensive boat ride you could have.
