People often refer to Myrtle Beach fishing as saltwater fishing. We have direct access to the Atlantic Ocean and numerous streams that flow into it. All saltwater. If you are used to freshwater fishing, there are some tips. You use different types of bait and tackle. The majority of inshore fishing is done on the ocean floor. To keep your rig upright, you will need a weight or sinker that is pyramid-shaped. After each use, rinse your reel with water to remove saltwater.
You can rent or purchase a rod and reel at your local bait and tackle shop, piers or sporting goods shops. Off shore fishing or deep sea fishing in Myrtle Beach is an adventure. Catching large, massive fish in deep water is certainly an exciting experience.
FRESHWATER and INLAND FISHING
The Myrtle Beach region is blessed with beautiful inland waters in addition to the majestic Atlantic Ocean. The Intracoastal waterway runs parallel to the coast, from Little River to Socastee where it joins the Waccamaw River. Other rivers and tributaries are also connected to the waterway. The only way to reach the ocean is through Little River and Winyah Bay.
The Intracoastal Waterway runs in its entirety from Boston to Key West. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers “built” the waterway, using existing rivers and other waterways as well as digging canals to connect them. 1936 saw the completion of the section connecting Little River and Socastee, which opened up the East Coast to commercial and leisure vessels. On April 11, 1936, dignitaries from all over the country attended the dedication ceremony.
Inland waters in the Myrtle Beach Area are popular for boating, charter fishing and leisurely cruises. You can make your trip even more memorable by chartering a cruise boat. You can find cruise boats at Little River, North Myrtle Beach and Myrtle Beach as well as Conway, Murrells Inlet and Georgetown. Some ferry passengers along the Intracoastal Waterway while others travel to the Waccamaw or Winyah Bay. Some offer sightseeing tours, while others offer dinner and dancing. Nearly all offer fascinating narratives about the region’s wildlife, scenic wonders and history.
