Who’s fishing Wednesday? Looks like a small window for us smaller boats.

2

hoping to give the troll a shot, if not maybe go catch some bottom critters in shallower

looks like a trap

Agreed, but standing by and watching in case…

That window is pretty small. And by window we are still talking 3@7

6

Happens every year, the fish show up and the weather won’t cooperate. Makes people do strange things.

I Know, I was that way once.

Will be out as well, also out of Edisto. Looks like the only chance this week. Will be monitoring 16 and 68, Fortunate Son. A small chance we may head south off Georgia depending on what the SST and waves look like, otherwise straight to Edisto Banks.

Yeah. Seeing the same thing. Supposed to lay down this afternoon, but nothing sounds fun about the ride out. Was hoping for a foot less by now. Going to check Buoy again in am hour.

This morning when i left my apartment for work around dawn, the ocean looked dead calm. Now it looks like a washing machine. Guess there was a narrow window in there somewhere for the bold
