Folly 7/30

Went out to E Folly yesterday, only had time to fish the first 2 hours or so of the falling tide. Caught several small reds, and had several solid bites I didn’t hook.

Was using shrimp pieces from Crosby’s on a Carolina Rig. Might’ve had too big a hook, was using an Owner SST 1/0. Next time I might downsize to a smaller hook, maybe even try a small circle hook.

On a side note, I saw a lady land the biggest Pompano I’ve ever seen in person. Looked like one of the biguns you see in pics from Florida, it was an absolute stud of a fish.

That’s sort of a shock to hear about the pompano considering the freshly renourished beach. Sure it wasn’t a jack??? I think I’m jealous. Have yet to catch a nice pomp in the SC.

Definitely not a Jack Crevalle, it didn’t have the black spot in front of the pectoral.
