Could not have had a better experience. The crew went out of their way and worked so hard to make sure we had a good time. They were very friendly and experienced. We had a small group so the private charter was definitely the way to go instead of a larger boat with multiple parties. The captain stayed in contact with us several days ahead of time so we would know the best day and even the best hour to arrive. Wise fishing charter should always be your first option for ocean fishing when visiting the Myrtle Beach area.

Capt. Steve and mate Cody worked their butts off trying to put us on fish. Couldnt ask for more. HEAVY SEAS and a weather front kept us from being super successful but we brought enough fish home to feed 18 with leftovers. All in all, it was a good day and a new friend.

Went fishing with Captain George and First Mate Dan on 8/15/18. I first want to thank them for working with us. We scheduled the trip weeks before and then less than a week I had to cancel it because it looked like we were not going to make the whole vacation. Two days later, our plans changed again and we were able to keep our vacation plans. I contacted Wise Fishing Charters right away, fearing that someone else had already booked the date and time that we originally wanted. Surprisingly, they were able and happy to accommodate us. It was a hot, still day. The first mate moved and worked hard to get lines ready for us. We caught several Spanish Markel, a couple of Sea Bass, and, unfortunately, only one tiny shark. Slightly disappointed in the limited amount of bass and really no sharks (that is what I really wanted to catch) and that we didn’t troll for shrimp (due to previous weather conditions), but as the captain told us and we totally understand and agree – it is called fishing NOT catching. Thoroughly enjoyed the personal touch and private charter and that this is a family owned and run business. All in all, we had a good time, glad we went, and am looking forward to going out again with Captain George when the weather is cooler and the fish may be biting better.

Captain Wise put us on fish and we had a blast! Had low expectations on numbers with cold water temps being the first week in April, but we all caught a bunch. Wife and two young daughters all had a great fishing trip. Would highly recommend. We will be back next year for more.

Fished today. I think its important that folks understand something that may be obvious to those in the industry but not obvious to those of us who only do this a couple times in their lifetime. My lesson learned is that a 5 hour charter doesnt mean 5 hours of fishing. 1 hour boat ride to start fishing, 20 or 30 minutes to move to the second spot to fish, then an hour to 75 minutes to get back to the dock. So, youre paying a pretty steep price for two to three hours of fishing. And, for the five fish we kept as a group, plus taking time off work to get the experience, we left the marina wishing we would have just gone to work. I expected more effort to get us on some sharks, keepable sea bass, etc but it didnt happen. An hour trolling around for 3 mackerel then an hour picking at small sea bass that couldnt be kept summarizes our trip today. To be fair, Captain and first mate were great guys and the conversation was enjoyable. And I totally understand that nature is unpredictable.One final note, the website says... We even pull a trawl net for Shrimp and Croaker. Youll have shrimp to go home with, and the best live bait for shark fishing in North Myrtle Beach ! This didnt happen either.Wish I could give 5 stars but were all pretty bummed.

I was thoroughly impressed with Captain Wise and his son . They are very professional, knowledgeable, and patient. I had five kids and myself for a five hour trip and my only regret is I didnt do a full day. We caught several Spanish and one nice shark but had several more hookups. My kids and their friends said it made the vacation, I agree as well, and cant wait to go again next year. I highly recommend this terrific duo and look forward to our next adventure.

Against my idea of fun, husband booked a 1/2 day deep sea fishing trip with Wise Fishing Charters, it turned out being the highlight of our trip! Captain Wise and Captain Brad are clearly experts in what they do. The trip was perfect for our family of four, kids are 10 and 12. We ALL had THE.BEST.TIME. The boat was clean, a history of the Intercoastal Waterways/Little River was provided, and we caught A TON of Spanish Mackerel and maxed out on Sharks. Fish were cleaned and filed for us - and were delicious for dinner that night. We will definitely book with them next time we visit Myrtle Beach!! Thank you for such a fun morning - the Burke Family

Captain Steve and his mate Holden were fantastic! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Caught lots of fish, including sharks. Had a group of 6 and everyone loved it. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a great fishing charter with a great Captain. Thank you Steve for all the great fishing tips and a few golf tips as well! Hope to be back soon!!The Lantz’s

Ill try to be brief, but I truly cannot say enough about how awesome my experience was fishing with Wise Charters. First and foremost is how these guys put your safety, concerns, needs and requests FIRST and foremost. It took a bit of waiting for the weather to be favourable for us to go out, but Captain Dan had his finger on the weather pulse and kept me current as to when the optimal day was to cruise the beautiful ocean.When the perfect day arrived, my buddy and I had permission to come aboard and start out on a truly fantastic adventure! Between Captain Dan and his first rate First Mate Adam, we had as smooth a time as possible. Their knowledge and easy going disposition took any pressure off of our limited deep sea knowledge and made it simply perfect. As other reviews have stated, they worked really hard to find us the best spots to fish, using a variety of techniques; it was a marvel to watch! We nabbed some Spanish Mackerel and almost a boatload of Sea Bass, which tasted mighty fine when we cooked them at home!I would endorse Wise Charters until I am blue in the face it was so cool and chill. By the end of our foray and we pulled into the marina it was like we had spent a day fishing with good friends. I wanted to do it again immediately, but alas, I will have to wait until next year.Hopefully this will help be a deciding factor when deciding which company to employ for your trip because these guys are excellent, professional and they work so hard I was feeling guilty about just sitting and admiring the vast and calming ocean.Cheers!Jaimie CrawfordMontreal, Canada

We had a great time on our fishing trip with Wise Charters. Captain Steve and Dan were very personable and accommodating to our group of 6 and made sure we had the best time. We caught enough fish for two nights of dinner! I would highly recommend their charter.

5 Friends looking for a exciting half day of fishing. Used Google and found Wise Charters out of North Myrtle Beach. Based on reviews, larger boat, trolling and bottom fishing we booked. I just had dinner - Spanish Mackerel and Atlantic Sharpnose Shark - Delicious. Captain Wise has a life time of experience and we caught 4 Spanish Mackerel right away then spent our time on our limit of Shark Fishing. If you want a traditional day of ocean fishing book Wise.Thanks Captain Steve Wise your friends Barry, Peter, Tommy, Ron 1 and Ron 2. See you Next time.

Took the family out today for their first time fishing in the ocean. My wife and I have two children, son is 14 and daughter is 9. We did the half day charter. It was an amazing time and will be a great memory for many years to come.To start, we threw out the shrimp net and then were able to get hands on with all kinds of sea life when we pulled it in. There were stingrays, jellyfish, crabs and all kinds of different fish. Of course they pulled the stingrays out before we dove in. Then we drop fished and caught loads of sea bass and to top it off, we landed three sharks.Was a great time all around and would definitely recommend Wise Fishing Charters to everyone.

Of all the chartered boats Ive been on this one was the best the captain and mate were aces. Very knowledgeable got us on the fish right away. Other boats were fishing over where we were not having any luck we were killing them. Target species were the king mackerel had a ball. After catching several of them we went for sea bass and caught between 50 and 100 of those. We had a wonderful time very accommodating my wife wanted to see dolphins so we went on little sightseeing trip to very reasonable. Best part of my trip

Review №23

We had an amazing time! My husband and I took our 2 littles, 12 and 8, out with us. These guys were awesome! The Captain told us about the history of the channel as we went out to the ocean. Once we got out there we got 2 Spanish mackerel right off the bat. Fish werent biting as good as everyone had hoped but the Captain and First mate kept trying new things to put us on fish. We finally got the hot spot and kept reeling in Spanish Mackerel. One mackerel we reeled in was chased by a Barracuda and ate half of my fish!! We then tried to catch the Barracuda but he was pretty smart. Needless to say we came away with 20 Spanish Mackerel and lots of memories. It was a great trip and both guys aboard were very patient and explained everything in detail to the younger ones and helped them with their first off shore fishing experience! Highly recommend this charter and will definately use them again if we make a trip back out.

I took my 3 sons (15, 12, and 9) fishing last week with the Wise family. These are the nicest guys I have ever chartered with. Very professional, polite, patient, and knowledgeable.Our scheduled morning was looking really bad with weather so Captain George worked with me to reschedule to a different day which ended up being sunny and very calm. If you review his page he states safety is number 1 and there is no doubt that is truly how he feels and not just words.Within 15 minutes from leaving the docks, we arrived at our spot to throw the net. We caught a bunch of shrimp, horseshoe crabs, jelly fish, puffer fish, etc...The kids absolutely loved going through the basket and seeing their catch. I couldnt have asked for a better start to the morning. Then only 15 minutes later we were at our first spot to do some Sea Bass fishing. Daniel put the first line in the water and was walking us through some details and as soon as he was at the bottom we were catching our first fish. My kids lost track on how many fish we caught but it was north of 100. We brought enough back to the condo to have a great meal.Once we got in the car, for the ride home, my three boys told me they will only go with WISE Charters going forward. Thank you guys we had a blast.

My husband and I brought our 3 boys (ages 6, 8 and 12) fishing with Wise Charters. Captain Steve and Dan were amazing. So helpful, informative and PATIENT...even with our 6 year old who may have tangled his line a few times. We caught tons of sea bass and even a puffer fish!With terrible weather the day prior, Captain Steve and Dan were great at communicating with us the day prior as they watched the weather to see if it’d be safe to go out. Thankfully, we were blessed with a beautiful day on the ocean.These guys are top notch. If you are looking for a charter in Myrtle Beach, Call Wise.Thanks for the memories, guys!

Went out with my wife and 10 yr. old daughter and had as great of a time as anyone couldve hoped for. Captain Wise and First Mate Daniel are top notch at what they do and good people just to hang out with. We caught plenty of Spanish mackerel, couple of sea bass and a nice shark. Highly recommend and will use again. Only thing I would change next time is Ill be out there longer. Thanks for a great day guys.

Best part of our entire vacation was fishing with Captain and Dan! They were very friendly and entertaining and made our day safe and fun. This was our first trip to Myrtle Beach. Seriously, it was the highlight of our week. Not only was it a beautiful sunny day, the ocean was gorgeous and mesmerizing. My son caught a shark and he was so excited! We caught enough shark, mackerel and blue fish to bring home. Captain shared some good recipes for grilling the shark, it was delicious!

Captain Steve and Dan are the best! They put us on the fish and we had a great time. They really know the waters and despite being out of season and having to release them we caught the biggest snapper we have ever hooked! King Mack and black sea bass were flying the boat! They really care about you having a great time, and be sure to ask them for a few fish tales 😜😜😜

Best deep sea fishing charter ever!!! My husband, 13 year old, 9 year old and I all really enjoyed it! We caught a bunch of Spanish mackerel, a bunch of sea bass, 3 sharp nose sharks and a barracuda! My 13 year old said this fishing trip was better than Disney World! The captain and first mate were very friendly, knowledgable and helpful and kept us moving to the spots where the fish were really biting. We could not have asked for a better experience! If you are in the Myrtle Beach area, you need to contact Wise Fishing Charters for the best deep sea fishing trip you will ever have!!!

We went with 4 kids today, caught the limit in Mackerel and in Shark. Our kids had a blast, we were on the fish quick, and we had time for a little dolphin watching.

A BIG Thank You to Captain Steve and Dan Wise!!! These guys are great. They instantly put us on some Spanish Mackerel and when they stopped biting moved us right on some Seabass. They kept us on fish the whole time. We kept catching so many fish we unfortunately didnt take hardly any pics. Thanks to Dan and his go pro so we didnt just come home with fish stories for when Aidan hooked up to a huge Tiger Shark. That thing was a monster!!! Aidan fought that thing so long he slept for 2 days!! Thank you guys so much for the great experience and memories!! We look forward to making many more with you guys!!Thanks again Chad & Aidan

I had been living in Myrtle Beach for four years now and have tried many different charters for deep sea fishing. Wise fishing charters has been the best by far. The captain and first mate were completely dedicated to making us happy and getting us on the fish. We caught Spanish mackerel before doing some bottom fishing, where we caught the some of the biggest Black Sea bass I have yet to see. After that I asked the captain if we could try and catch some Barracudda and King mackerel, and that is exactly what we went and did. Every one was a keeper, and my father caught a big 50 inch Barracuda. To top it off we caught a decent size shark, and even almost got a 6ft Hammerhead on board. If your looking for a good private charter in the Myrtle Beach or Grand Strand area in general, look no further.

The 2nd time we have been out with Captain Steve and Dan and certainly not the last time!! We have been on other charters, they just dont stack up to Captain Steve and Wise Fisher Charters. He knows how to fish and knows how to put you on the fish. He doesnt risk the safety of the customers if the weather conditions arent good just for sake of another dollar either.If we could give Wise Fisher Charters 6 stars we would. Cant wait for the next time!!
