Conditions were not favorable at all, Buddy worked very hard to keep us on fish and we did well might I add , will not be looking any further for a guide service in Myrtle Beach , Buddy at Captian Smileys has our business A+++

My son just finished up his second year of the Palmetto Kids Fishing Camp. Once again he had a phenomenal time with Capt Mark! He caught croaker, Spanish Mackerel, black drum, flounder and one big ole shark!! He is already talking about next year! (I wish Google would let me upload the shark video! It’s awesome!)

I highly recommend Captain Smiley fishing charters. My son attended Palmetto Fishing Camp and had a great experience. I would use them again in the future.

We had a Wonderful trip! Buddy was a top notch Captain and showed us a wonderful experience! We had two in the group that had never fished before and Buddy showed us all aspects. We trolled for Spanish, Jigged and floated live bait for Trout, and then went after the big Stuff! I'm definitely coming back to fish with Buddy!

Outstanding experience. The the whole family had a blast!

We always have a great time fishing with Captain Smiley and his team of Captains. On our most recent trip, we had Captain Buddy and he was fantastic. Captain Buddy is patient, takes the time to teach (we had 12 y/o boys with us) and knows where the fish are hiding. He's not afraid to make a 12 y/o's birthday extra special by putting him on a ~120lb Bull Shark either. Highly recommend Captain Smiley and all of his Captains!! Thank you, Captain Buddy, the boys are still talking about that shark!

Our second time out with Captain Smileys Fishing Charters. Had an absolute blast on the 7 hour trip. Captain Curtis is always a good time and does a fantastic job. We will be returning again and can’t wait until the next time! We didn’t have to do a thing except fish and laugh and enjoy ourselves.

We booked a charter through Captain Smiley's and went out with Captain Curtis. It was a 7 hour trip and we had the best time. Captain Curtis did all the work for us, he was very knowledgeable (mostly fishing facts but sometimes random, fun information) and he even joked around with us and made the trip so enjoyable! He took us to the good "fishing holes" and we were able to just kick back and fish. We will be back and we will book with Captain Curtis again!

Had a great day on the water with Captain Smiley (Patrick ). Five Big reds in the shallows. Two flounder and a speckled trout. And to round things off a Spanish mackerel out front. Got the grand slam. Will be back.

This past Thursday my buddy booked a last minute trip with Captain Smiley. We got Buddy Love as our captain and I don't think we could've had a better time. It was like having an old friend in the boat with us. Buddy kept us baited up the entire time and put us on all kinds of fish. We had a small mishap when my friend's girlfriend accidentally broke the tip of her fishing rod. Buddy took it in stride though and we still continued to have a good time. After we got back to the dock, Buddy filleted all of our fish and even put them in Ziploc bags for us. I'd definitely recommend booking with these guys! We ended up going out on a different charter the next day and ended up regretting not booking with Captain Smiley for the second trip. Also I'm pretty sure if you ask nicely, ole Buddy Love will tell you how he acquired his nickname 😂. Seriously though if you are looking for a good time, book with these guys and ask for Buddy. You can thank me later.
