What You Should Know About Fishing With Kids in Myrtle Beach
Before heading out on any fishing charter with kids, there are a few things you should know. After all, it can be a long day out on the water. So, the better prepared you and your kid are, the more enjoyable the experience will be.
Wear clothing appropriate for fishing
The first bit of guidance we can provide is on what to wear when fishing in Myrtle Beach. We suggest that you and your child bring a long-sleeved t-shirt and windbreaker but that you wear a short-sleeved t-shirt if the weather permits. The conditions on the water can be a bit chillier than on land, and you may want to dress in layers to ensure you are comfortable. Also, be sure to wear tennis shoes and leave the sandals and flip-flops back at the hotel or home. Finally, donât forget sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses.
Consider sea bands, Ginger gum, or Dramamine if seasickness is a concern
If your child has never been out on the open water before, you may be wondering how they will tolerate the waves. If you are concerned about potential seasickness, consider getting sea bands to put on your childâs wrists. Sea bands apply pressure in just the right spot and can help keep nausea away. Ginger gum and Dramamine can also help but be prepared that Dramamine may make your child a bit sleepy.
Talk to your child about what to expect on the fishing excursion
Though we do our best to help all of our guests reel in the big one or at least something that will provide a good fishing story, fishing is not always catching. So, be sure to talk to your child about what to expect before heading out on the water. Discuss expectations for safety and make sure they know what they are in for. The more your child is in the know, the more theyâll feel like theyâre part of the action, and theyâll know what to do.
Bring your camera and prepare to make some memories
Though todayâs mobile devices serve as great cameras, be sure you have something to take pictures with no matter what you bring. If your child does indeed catch the big one or even the small one for that matter, the experience is sure to be photo-worthy. So, teach your child the lore of a great fishing story, and catch some photos to create their own. Youâll be glad to have the experience documented so that you can reflect on it for years to come.
