Mahi Mahi Fishing in the Myrtle Beach, SC Area
The gulf stream is a bit of a boat ride from the shores of Myrtle Beach, so plan on doing a full day, 10 to 12 hour fishing trip if you want to fish for mahi mahi in this area. There are plenty of fishing charters that will go out and fish the gulf stream for pelagic species of fish here, so you can definitely go out and target mahi mahi if you want. In the summer, you can definitely find some mahi mahi closer to shore, but to consistently target the bigger mahi mahi, you’re going to want to be much farther offshore.
Mahi Mahi Fishing Tips
Trolling for mahi mahi is the most conventional way to catch these fish, but more and more anglers are sight fishing for mahi mahi. Because these fish are often found around large weed lines and many different types of floating debris, some anglers will go find these spots and chum these areas to see if they can attract some mahi mahi to the boat. This is very effective and if you hit it right, you could catch several mahi mahi very quickly in these situations.
