I'm sure we have others here from your neck of the woods.
Perhaps they are lurking too.. 
What areas have you fished?
Techniques and bait? |
As far as
SC goes I usually stay in the stretch from North Myrtle Beach through Cherry Grove Inlet (nice flounder there btw) and on up to Little River Inlet. That area is right in my backyard so it's naturally convenient. Occasionally I'll go up to Dunn sound and Sunset Beach in
NC to surf fish some. It's much quieter up there than NMB. I have family in and around the Jacksonville, FL area as well so whenever I'm down there I try to head down to Fernandina Beach to fish a little. Technique wise all I ever really do is fish from the piers or out in the surf. Never felt comfortable in a small kayak for some reason. I basically stick to laying something in the bottom for flounder or when the spot are running I'll cut up some squid. They love those. I always have a crab net in the water when I'm fishing. I've been known to eat my fair share of blue crabs now and then.
One thing I haven't done much of if fish for channel bass (aka red drum) around here. I know they're out there but I've never had much luck in catching anything in slot. Other than that I'll take whatever comes up on the line regardless of whether or not I intend to keep it. It's like a stress relief for me when nothing else will do.
