We will be coming down for our yearly family vacation July 12-19 and staying in Wild Dunes and bringing our boat with us. My dad and I brought our little 14ft boat last year and never got far from the marina because of the size. I have since purchased a 17ft Carolina skiff and we will be bringing that with us this year. Does anyone have any suggestions on bait or general area and what to look for? Harbor? Creeks? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

There are a bunch of good spots near the IOP marina. I would recommend just catching bait if you have a cast net. I prefer finger mullet. One of my favorite bait spots is to just go down Morgan Creek (go under the little bridge–there is always tons of bait down there). I typically do well fishing finger mullet on a carolina rig. Those last few docks down near that bridge also hold a ton of fish at low tide. Just cast as close as you can to the pilings of the docks.

Thanks! Will definitely give it a try back there.
