I assure you that I am not an expert on Edisto, fishing, life, etc…I’m human, make mistakes, learn new things everyday, and do something that scares me everyweek for the experience. I apoligize if I came across the wrong way to you or anyone else. I try to live my life the way I was taught by my family. Treat others the way you want to be treated, love family, have some very close friends and lots of good aquaintances, love God, work hard, and good things will happen in return. Internet forums are not the best way to know who people are.

All that I know about you is that you assume you are the Edisto expert on near everything - maybe you are? Who knows?

I have known bard for several years now and he is as good of a person as anyone down here. Also pbunn he is a pretty good source for info about Edisto. When you live down here full time you pick up a lot.
Brad I just called Colon and they were about 3 hours into ther first drag. I wonder how long it will take travis and colon to be at each others necks.
Darn,I was hoping to get some of shrimp on that first haul. I will be down Tuesday evening thru the weekend. Save me some and stop by for a drink Edisto82.
I am going to go down and see what they cought in an hour or two. If you want I will tell colon to hold you some. The shrimp should have some nice size to them too. The ones that Bill cought last week were pretty big. I will try to catch yaull tommorow but I might have to leave before you get down. I was dumb and scheduled a class in columbia this wed and thurs. It didnt dawn on me that it was Gov Cup when i signed up for it. If I dont see yaull tommorow I will stop by when I get back into town on Thurs.
What do you think is going to happen with the weather for Gov Cup? Hopefully they will get 2 days in.
Edisto82,
When I walked the beach this morning for the turtle watch, I saw 7 shrimp boats about 3 miles out from the pavilion on the horizon, so I drove by Edisto Seafood to see if the shrimp boat was out. Both the Sarah Jane and Silver Eagle where gone. I went back by when they came in and they did one drag, had some minor problems with the pulleys and wrinch. Only brought back 30 lbs of shrimp. That is better than no shrimp. I am sure that Colin learned a lot today. I wish him the best of luck with shrimping and Travis. I have some more news for you, but not on this forum. I will tell you in person.

I wouldnt be worried about how many boats are out there. I would be more worried about colin and travis’s all star captain. cheers
Edisto Brad,
I noticed your remarks about walking the turtle watch this morning. Could I have met you last year in June in the 100 block. I believe it was a Brad that we watched move a nest.
I will be down Friday morning for 8 days. How is the turtle nesting coming this year. I notice nobody is updating the website.

I have spent most of my life fishing.
The rest has been wasted.
That’s me. You must be the surf fisherman. We had three crawls this morning on my section. Got to see one lay last night for an hour. I will be out of town this coming weekend, but will return on Monday.

Yep, I am the nut with the surf fishing buggy. Got a new one this year. Hope to break it in right next week.
I will look for you Monday morning. Is Becky still doing the walk?
It was good to hear the crawl report. We appreciate what y’all do.
