Was surprised to experience last weekend that no neighbors were around to fish Folly area… Everyone already committed to travel, work, family, other fishing events. I thought, hmmmmm, need to broaden my inshore/nearshore fishing buddy list.
I fish 3-4 Saturdays or Sundays per month. Rare Fridays. Usually out 3-7 hrs. Typically launch at Folly to fish from lighthouse to Kiawah or lower Stono. Also launch from JI yacht club or Sol Legare for harbor or Kiawah.
If seas less than 3 ft will run to KI, LCA or Chas Nearshore reefs on short notice.
I find fishing alone fine, but 1-2 others usually improves everything. So if you send me PM with email address I’ll build a list I can contact you from when looking to find 1-2 on usually 1 day notice.
I’ll throw in the boat and gas, extra tackle, gear. In exchange, some boat handling skill, trailer launch/retrieve skills would be helpful so I don’t have to do it all ( like when I have only my wife- but don’t tell her). Bring your drinks/snacks and ice if you want to keep any fish. The boats are 16.5 ft skiff and 22.5 ft bayboat and have all the usual stuff.
FWIW, I’m 50+, spend my weekends here, bring beer along, have no strong political/religious affiliations, fish for fun and to get on the water. I’m in California this weekend but hope to be on the water a lot in May if the weather finally turns.
I’m definitely interested in reef trips! I’ve never been past the breakers(jetties not included). I do a good bit of inshore around that way, but I’m open for some more. I’m young(15) so it would be me and my dad.

stickman also runs a democratic boat…if 2 of the 3 crew are puking all over the place he will come in if the majority vote to do so…
I hope to fish with you soon buddy…meanwhile, our wives are having no problem finding time to hang out together!

I am always game, will bring beer/ice, my own gear, bait, ckip in on gas and never catch more fish than you do. Just ask Vinman.
Thanks for responses. I’m in San Diego now where the weather is also cool and rainy. Didn’t mean to post this here- thought I was in “inshore
discussion” . Oh well.
Will send PM’s when back in the area and weather improves.
PM sent with contact info. Add me to your list! I live in Charlotte but have a place at Folly also and get down as often as I can. Have a boat on Folly River also but usually fishing solo so glad to contribute to your gas, beer, etc and fish along. Thanks for throwing this out there, look forward to meeting!
