General Fishing Discussion

I am down for vacation with the family , my kids love to catch bonnetsheads and different sharks, I had arm surgery two weeks ago so I can’t do much in the way of catching bait. Does anyone have a stingray or some live crabs they wouldn’t mind donating/selling/ whatever isn’t breaking the law in SC we are staying on Seabrook, we usually don’t have a probably catching crabs in the surf to use for the bonnets but we have only managed 1 so far. only going to be here a few more days and was hoping to get some ting for bait

thanks,

Panhandleman, I have some frozen herring, menhaden, and perhaps a mullet or two you can have. Send me a PM, if you can pick them up in Summerville. I’m a few minutes off the interstate.

thanks Matt,
I think we are set with the crab bait, my kids have had numerous runs but only one shark, I switched to a smaller hook and will prob try and half the crabs hoping maybe the circle hooks I am using are just too big for the bonnets, I didn’t bring any of my leader making materials so I am improvising with 100lb mono and some swivels. Last night the kids had 10 runs with no hook ups, hopefully switching to a smaller hook will work, my ration used to be a lot higher, either way the kids are having fun and the sharks are getting fed a lot.
