I’m not asking for exact spots but asking for certain beaches that produce better, between what streets or ave. have spots? Any help would be great, I don’t have time or money to go out and scout and catch dinky whiting, wanting reds, pompano,black drum, trout, etc… Please any help at all will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

If you are catching “dinky” Whiting, the reds, pompano, blacks and trout are in the same spot. They all swim together in the same holes, ditches and troughs. Now you can “try” and target Bull Reds right now ( big bait/hooks/line/rod/reel), but, you won’t catch pompano, blacks, trout or dink whiting. Mayde a shark? ray? Blue fish? Which beach is closest for you? Folly? Just south of the pier is usually good for everything. Sullivans? I like the erea around Sta. 26-28. Or just at the mouth of the inlet. IOP? Man…28th? 35th? 41st? 53rd? And again south of the pier. Honestly though ANY section of low country beach can be good at any given time. Trick is you being there.

I’ve had pretty good success on Isle of palms. Anywhere you find a sandbar on the beach is a good place to start. The troughs and backside of the bars are where you want your bait. Big reds like big mullet. The tip of Sullivan’s is a good place to be this time of year. Go by the fort and look for the parking lot of boats. That’s called the grillage. Fling a big chunk of cut mullet towards the boats and hang on.
From experience surf fishing Capers, we have found that the catching activity peaks either side of high or low tide, and that the fish tend to run through going from point A to point B, so you will have a short period of great activity followed by long periods of not-so-much!
