Salty Hooker Fishing Charters is a Murrells Inlet, South Carolina-based fishing charter operator offering offshore sportfishing trips from the Grand Strand. The operation runs three primary trips: a ten-hour Full Day Trip that ventures up to 50 miles offshore and targets species such as King Mackerel and Grouper; a twelve-hour Gulf Stream Trip that goes up to 70 miles offshore to pursue Mahi, Tuna, and Wahoo (all equipment and licenses provided and a 6:00 a.m. departure); and an eight-hour Three-Quarter Day Trip reaching up to 35 miles offshore with both trolling and bottom fishing options (fishing gear and licenses provided).
Trips are designed for anglers interested in deep-sea and offshore fishing within the Atlantic waters off Murrells Inlet. The Full Day Trip emphasizes extended time on productive grounds with space to store the day’s catch, while the Gulf Stream Trip focuses on fast-moving pelagic species found farther offshore. The Three-Quarter Day Trip provides a shorter option without sacrificing offshore opportunities and includes provided gear and licenses.
Salty Hooker Fishing Charters is listed among Murrells Inlet fishing charter options and presents clear trip durations, offshore ranges, and species targets so anglers can pick the right outing. All trip descriptions specify equipment and license provisions where applicable, helping visitors prepare accurately for each adventure.
