Charleston near shore reef

Headed out to the near shore reef tomorrow and I’m curious if anyone has had any luck and with what.

Well BSB are indangered so you probably won’t catch any of those…some cobia have been showing up at our reefs in Beaufort

Did you make it out? I got half way out and got skeered. I know there was good 5’ swells/waves. It was getting worse at 3mi out so I turned back and surfed the waves in. I couldn’t imagine doing that in a Jon boat.

Went there today and caught BSB two at a time… tried everything, couldn’t get away from the little bastards.
Went to the 60 last Thursday, and there is some good fishing there on the outside of the reefs. If you are on top of them, you’ll never get through the BSB.
