July 2010 fishing report and forecast..the fishing has been on fire! We are catching lots of red drum around structure using shrimp and cut bait. clients are getting limits with ease. The trout fishing has been real good. We are getting a mixed bag of sizes, but we are catching anywhere from 20 to 30 trout in a trip using live shrimp. The sharks are out in there normal haunts, the harbor, the beaches, the inlets, etc. Black tips, sandsharks, bonnetheads, and fine tooth are all being caught now using menhaden and crab. I have had several trips now for the big reddrum out at the jetties, and the the bite has been good. If you have never caught one of these 30lb monster fish, you need to come get some!!..You can expect the fishing to continue to be good into August. It gonna be hot but with the addition of my new T-Top on my boat, it will provide some relief from the sun..The tarpon are here along the coast now and i have a tarpon trip scheduled for the 21st of july, so i will keep you posted..give me a call for a daily fishing report at 843.509.4751

June 08...the month of june we caught big redfish using cut mullet, chunk crab and menhaden. The red drum that we caught weighed anywhere form 15lbs to 40lbs. If you happen to catch any of these big reds be sure to "vent" the fish if necessary to revive it. Alot of the fishing we did was out at the jetties. We also used crab and cut bait closer inshore to catch big numbers of bonnethead sharks and other larger sharks. Out at the reefs we were using jellystrips to catch the spadefish and cut bait for the sea bass.

July 08...This month it was much of the same type of fishing as the month of june. If you can find the bait in the morning your gonna be in for some good action. HUGE redrum, and Sharks have been the quarry for alot of the first timers this month. In the creeks, we have been using mud minnows and some artificials to catch the redfish,trout in creeks and around docks. The night fishing has been pretty good. We have caught lots of trout under the lights as well as some big reds. Lots of fish biting and not enought time to catch them all.

August and Sept 08..Pretty much the same at the jetties and inshore..The tarpon are here and scattered along the charleston coast. Use big live mullet under floats and dead baits on the bottom and you may catch one..On the flats on the flood tides, while wading the flats the redfish have been tailing real good. This would be a good time to try and get one on the fly rod.In sept, this is an excellent month to catch the redfish of a lifetime if you have never done so..We have caught alot of Huge red drum and black drum this month..Chunk crab being the bait of choice.

Oct 08..heres where my reports are going to be very current. i will update the reports page every week. From Sept 28-oct 4, 2008 heres what were catching.. we are using live shrimp under cajun thunder corks to catch sea trout in the creeks. focusing on points and submerged oyster beds. during the low tide, we are doing some fishing for redfish around docks and oysterbeds. We are also catching sheepshead, flounder, and black drum. during this month the trout bite should be realy good. Its not uncommon for us to catch 20-30 trout. its a great time of the year to fish..cool weather, lots of bait, and lots of inshore fish to be caught...for more info call me at 843.509.4751

May 2009....been using live peanut menhaden to catch big trout under corks. Aeverage trout size was around 2lbs with some around 4lbs. also been catching redfish in the creeks using the same bait. Also using topwater baits for trout early in the morning and late in the afternoon..

June 2009...the fishing has been the same inshore but now you can add a pretty consistent shark bite now..The big reddrum out at the jetties are biting pretty good. The sheepshead are biting real good at the jetties and the bridges inshore using fiddler crabs. The bonnethead sharks are chewing on the crab, and the trout are still eating topwater baits early in the morning and the last hour before it gets dark..

July09-August 5,2009.....The fishing has been pretty good despite the hot days. Out at the jetties the sheepshead bite has pretty decent with some sheepshead topping 10lbs. The big breeder red drum at the jetties is also doing pretty good, using crab for bait..The sharks are still biting! ive have been fishing inshore alot lately and the bite is very consistent right now. we are catching lots of slot redfish in the 20-23 inche range and a few in the 35 inch range, with lots of puppy drum mixed in. The trout are also biting and their size range is anywhere from dinks to 2lbs...Sept is right around the corner and i cant wait for it to cool down a little bit..Dont forget that the next 3 months sept, oct, and nov the trout fishing is going to be red hot!!We have also been catching some flounder dragging mud minnows on jig heads on the bottom..

August 6,2009-Sept 2,2009...the fishing has been red hot! From topwater trout in the early morning, to huge redfish at the jetties everything is in full swing. Alot of my trips the past month have been inshore trips in the creeks fishing for redfish, trout, flounder, and sheepshead. Live shrimp has been the bait of choice. for the trout ive been using the cajun thunder corks rigged with live shrimp, on moving tides, with the focus on creek mouths and oyster mounds. On the ebb, we have have been focusing on structure. Structure gives these redfish something to relate to when they cant be tucked up tight in the grass. 1/4 oz jig heads tipped with live shrimp,fished around structure has been very productive lately. The sheepshead are still at the jetties, and bridge pilings inshore. last but not least, the bonnethead sharks are biting like crazy!!...on a side note, october will be here soon, and the trout fishing will be on fire. dont miss out, book your trip early. call me 843-509-4751

October 2009....the fishing is fantastic right now! lots of catches of speckled sea trout, and redfish..Lately, we have been catching both on live shrimp under corks, and on jigheads..current water temp is still fluctuating in the lower 70's...the early morning topwater bite is still pretty awsome, with lots of big trout, and redfish being caught. The fishing only gets better from here to the end of the year..give me a call at 843.509.4751..excellent sightfishing opportunities will be upon us soon, give me a call..

November,and December 2009....the redfish and trout bite have been on fire..We are catching trout using DOA shrimp, freelined and under corks. As for the redfish we are using live shrimp and catching them nonstop..redfish are in small schools and are alot of fun sightfishing..The sheepshead are biting real good now also..I predict january will produce much of the same results. I have been fishing every other day, to stay on the trout so if you are looking to get on the water and catch em, give me a call at 843.509.4751.

January 2010...Happy New Year!!..the fishing in january should continue to be pretty good using the artificials, and cut bait when needed..With the holidays over with, its back to basics when fishing this time of year. Presentations are slow, the weather is nice, and the fish are biting. Redfish and Speckled Trout will be the primary targets along with the sheepshead. If you are looking to sharpen your skills using artificial baits, this is a good time to do so. Take advantage of this time of the year and go catch em up!!

FEB.2010...we are using cut mullet,crab, and gulp baits to fish for redfish. To catch speckled sea trout we are using DOA shrimp in various colors. The retrieve and presentation is slooow, but when you get on the trout the action is good. we are catching good numbers of trout 20-30 in a trip. Spring is approaching, so the days are starting to fill up..If you plan on fishing with me in march reserve your trip now and dont get left on the dock..call me 843.509.4751
