Lowcountry Fishing Outlook- July 27, 2010
Little River
- Cherry Grove Pier: A few weakfish, spot,
pompano, spadefish and little snapper have been
caught, and a few folks targeting sheepshead have
been having success. However, the most exciting bite
has been the king mackerel bite and in the last week
four kings.
Grand Strand
- Perry's Bait and Tackle in Murrells Inlet
reports that this has been the best season in a
while for king mackerel fishing out of boats.
Traditional king mackerel hot spots like the Myrtle
Beach Rocks, Belkie Bear, and even the 3 Mile have
been very productive. At the Murrells Inlet jetties
black and red drum fishing has come on strong, with
lots of red drum. Cut mullet, menhaden or quartered
blue crabs will all work, and black drum are eating
sand fleas very well. Sheepshead have also turned on
at the jetties, especially down towards Georgetown,
and sand flea sales are taking off.
Charleston
- Folly Beach Pier: A few small blues and trout
are being caught, but the big story is the king
mackerel and tarpon. A little over a month ago the
pier record king mackerel was caught - a 44 pound
beauty.
Beaufort
- Spottail Bass: Good. Bay Street Outfitters
reports most outings they are doing well for
redfish. Occasionally in the heat of the day the
fish are refusing to eat, but generally they are
taking a fly pretty well. Captain Dan "Fishin'
Coach" Utley reports that on good tailing tides
plenty of Redfish have been willing to bite around
Hilton Head. Gold spoons like the Nemire Red Ripper
are productive, and on the regular tides and around
low tide mud minnows fished under a rattling cork
have been producing some nice fish.
- Trout: Few reports. Bay Street Outfitters
reports that a few big trout have been caught in the
last week or two, with several fish over 5 pounds.
However, no numbers have been reported - another
sign that the cold winter probably got a lot of
them. Down around Hilton Head Captain Dan "Fishin'
Coach" Utley also reports a slow trout bite.
- Cobia and Tarpon: Going and coming. Bay Street
Outfitters reports that last week they landed a 40
pound cobia on the fly, but most of the fish are
leaving or gone by now. There are still a good
number of cobia just offshore. Meanwhile, a few
tarpon have already showed up, and Captain Brian
Vaughn's boat landed their first tarpon of the
season last week.
