Heading to Pitt St. bright and early tomorrow morning. Never been before but been scouting it out on the interwebs. Tide will be coming in, so that?s a plus. Taking Carolina rig, popping cork, and couple of plastics to see if anything is hungry.
Does the crowd on Saturdays get pretty heavy? I assume it does. If anyone can give their two cents on the crowd and if it?s too crazy on a Saturday morning, please chime in. It?s either Pitt or Demetre Park.
Lived in Murrells Inlet for a couple of years during college and fished there and piers around myrtle a lot. Girlfriend attends MUSC, so I commute from Cola almost everyweekend. I don?t know anyone on this board or the area, but if anyone has the same idea in mind, could always use some company. Will report back after with hopefully good news.
I used to fish there regularly years ago before they made it a park.
I never caught much out in the channel, but used to pretty do well around high tide fishing along that seawall especially over around the grass using live bait under a float. Take you cast net and you should be able to catch bait over in that little creek that runs on the left side of the road. Low tide is around 4 tomorrow morning, so high should be between 10 and 11. If you need to catch bait, try to get there before the tide floods out in the grass. Good Luck !
Made it to Pitt Sat morning to incoming tide. Very relaxing spot. Before I got there, couple of folks got a small flounder and a nice trout or two. Other couple caught a few under size flounder as well along with a nice 15"+ sheepshead. They were around the pilings in numbers. Nice sizes to them also. I managed to get one dinker bluefish and a flounder that measured just a hair past 14". Threw it back to fight another day. Fished from 7:15 to noon.
I have always caught a few fish down there. I find found out that not many fish go back at Pitt St. So if it has any residents they get removed quickly. I have caught a few nice Redfish, tons of flounder, and have seen quite a few sheepshead caught there. I have had better luck on lower water.
