Port Royal today

To the South Beaufort / Hilton Head
1

It was windy, it was a wet ride, it wasn’t warm, but the fish were hungry :smiley:

Raymond, Dave and I braved the small craft warnings and cold this morning, had to change launch locations due to 4’ seas in Broad River :help: Switched plans, launched in the Cheechessie, still got soaking wet, but we caught fish non-stop from the time we wet a hook until the time we called it quits. Left them still biting. We’ve got a strong front moving through tonight and the fish always turn on ahead of the low pressure fronts.

We didn’t see another boat on the water except for one oyster man and one crabber, which is almost impossible near Hilton Head and Beaufort on a Saturday. They should have gone fishing:smiley: Raymond said we were the only ones stupid enough to be fishing today :lol:

We caught a bunch of these…

And a dozen of these…

And a lot of these. This is a little one, throw back. It’s in the legal slot but we can do a lot better…

Did a whole lot of this…

This one is a keeper, 1/4" under slot

We had these coming in the boat 2 at a time, grab the net, can’t, got a fish on, net your own fish…

Thanks Easy. Just one of those days, right spot, right time, fish almost every cast. You don’t know if you don’t go. Got to pay your dues.

(**() Cracker! Not what I need to see right before finals time!! Too much studying and not enough fishing. Ha. Nice haul.

Great job guys, no wonder Raymond is too busy to fix my flats boat! Ha, Ha,. Need to get those background shots out of your pictures as those in the know can recognize your location. Too far from the dock for me to go.

Those who know the place know it ain’t no secret spot Coach. Those who don’t probably can’t find it anyway :smiley: I ain’t saying.

He’s got a T-top, leaning post, swim platform and upholstery to build for me too. He does stay busy, but we both played hookey yesterday.

Fish are deep now, deeper than most folks expect. All the fish came from 12-20’ deep, even the reds.

I haven’t fished that spot in 6 months or more, last spring sometime and the eagles were there then. My fishing partners have been a few times and said they haven’t seen them in a while. Hope nothing bad happened to them. I always enjoy watching them.

Excuse my poor photography…

That spot gets a lot of fishing pressure. It’s not unusual to see 8 or 10 boats in there. We had it to ourselves on Saturday. Only people crazy enough to get soaking wet to get in and out of there I reckon :smiley:
