I will be fishing the creeks around the island this week (steamboat, Russell). What side of the tide should I fish? Also should I have bait suspended under a cork or on the bottom with a Carolina rig? Thank you all!
Fished the areas you’re referring to the other day. Ended up getting a hot trout bite about the first hour of the incoming tide. Rode around and scouted areas at low tide and just kept moving until we got on fish. Threw artificials.
Hope this helps. I usually bottom fish offshore but the weather has kept me inshore this week. Still learning.
Ok thanks! I have A new to me boat and have been scouting everywhere as well.
