Check with the local fishing stores for fiddlers. They have them year round and not too expensive, easier than digging them up yourself. I mostly use the Wappoo ramp. It’s not a bad run out to the jetties but you may find another option that suits you better depending on where you live. I will be offshore this weekend. According to the others on this site, never, ever, mention the weather. It’s bad karma.
Word to the wise. Hadrells Mt. P was out on Tuesday. Asked if they thought they would get some by the weekend. They didn’t sound hopeful. If anybody finds them for sale let me know.
Hey Jim. Try calling the Charleston Angler on Hwy 61. They may have some. And local divers have reported lots of sheephead on the Charleston Nearshore Reef.
We were at the nearshore reef a couple days ago and did not see the bouy marker. Is it still there? I only knew I was at the right spot cause I had it marked on my fishfinder.
If you fully freeze shellfish before shucking for bait it makes it a lot easier, also the micro mussels that grow in clusters works well used whole and smashed.
Went out Monday near shore, took frozen clams, fresh oysters and deep holed shrimp. We caught the most sheep on the shrimp. Keep the bait off the bottom.
