The wife and I have been out 3 times in the past 10 days. Last week we launched at low tide and never saw tide movement after more than 2 hours. Very odd. We caught dinner with test casts but did not set poles. Nice day though.
Returned a couple days later and were blown out. Wind 16-20. Didn’t bait anything.
Monday the 20th, conditions were perfect. There was a light breeze, muddy water. The tide was very slow to move but we baited and threw for an hour. Ten pounds of medium-large. Nothing impressive.
I’ll probably try the south side. I’m not seeing what we normally see, such as by-catch, flipper, current, solid sonar profiles or shrimp in the prop wash. The good news is our shrimp are delicious and don’t glow in the dark with radiation:)
Update… went to Bulls bay yday. NO shrimp with bait or deephole net Anderson creek and bull island entrance. Water temp 69. 4% moon but gut tells me they have moved out to the ocean… very disappointing
We were there 20th as well. About 5lbs only one cast had about 15 and I thought the light finally turned on. Great conditions except the shrimp. Loaded boat at noon and I think my son in law helped push your boat off dock because of cross current if that was y’all.
Went at the crack of dawn Friday the 24th with Saturday and Sunday’s windy forecast. Entered south Bull’s Bay via Anderson creek and scouted the flats for about an hour without a single shrimp. Pulled out the deep hole net and found them stacked up on the sonar.
