I know that there have been some people wanting to get out and do some freshwater fishing and this is your chance to make your case/speak up. I have been going back and fourth between the forums and Facebook trying to figure out what the majority wants. Personally, I would like to go to an area like Mingo point again. We have talked about Botany Bay now for a while but for some people (I think) this might not be possible becuase they do not allow trailers. (I do not want to exclude anyone) So please give your suggestions so that we may decide a location. I hope everyone had a great holiday.
I think it would be hard for us to find a saltwater spot. Because we would areas to flats to find schools of reds, or places to sheepshead fish. Only place off the top of my mind is mingo point. If anybody as another place let us know! Maybe the ICW again? I’m ready for some freshwater myself though. I absolutely love bass fishing. Maybe the lakes or BP freshwater, or cypress gardens?

One thing to think about, as far as freshwater goes - Lake Marion and Moultrie are down about 3 or 4 ft this time of year…could limit the really good bass fishing places available.
Tides look good for copahee , low in the morning, high about 2:30 pm, access to deep holes by ICW , plus rising water on mud flats. Could meet around 10 am shoot the breeze till enough water is in the creek to paddle out.
The launch is at the end of Gadsdenville Rd…you’ll drive up Hwy 17 about 5 miles past the IOP connector - look to the right for the sign saying “Copahee Sound Access” - turn right and drive all the way to the end.
