Spring 2011

It has been a while since my last blog. Had to figure out this new blogspot URL stuff. This winter and spring has been unbelievably good for inshore fishing in the Carlolinas and especially here in Charleston. The redfish, also known as spot tail bass, have been chomping! Schools of 50- over 1,000 fish have been congregating in the shallows of the bays and sounds. The water has been very clear and the site fishing has been the way to go. January and February were great months to use artificials and the fly rod to catch big numbers of redfish. With the approach of warmer weather, the schools are breaking up a bit and starting to prefer the mullet and crabs. May is "Giant Trout" month and as soon as the menhaden arrive, it will be time to go catch some big breeder trouts near the inlets. The water temperature is hovering around 60 degrees which is the magic number. The Giant redfish should be moving into the harbor and shortly thereafter, the mullet run and the tarpon run will be here. Call me now to book your trout, redfish, or tarpon trips! Please checkout my facebook page and feel free to email me with any tackle or condition questions. Keep the tip up and turn the handle!
