Put in at Wapoo at 6:15 and caught some nice bait right at the ramp: shrimp, FM, spot, and pinfish. Ended up not catching anything with it though. Everything was on artificials today. 1/4 oz jighead and various Z-man baits (4" paddlerz, minnowz, and curly tails). Colors used were houdini, redbone, shrimp, and gold flake. With the light winds I mostly used the trolling motor and worked current edges in 6-8 ft water for trout and shell/sandy grasslines for flounder. Stopped fishing at 11:30 after I drank my last water; it was HOT! Total was 9 trout from 13-18" and 3 flounder up to 16". All but one trout and one flounder released.
P.S. I saw an alligator (6-8 ft) around the rip rap on the southeast side of Daniel Island this morning.
