I have been fishing Kiawah and Charleston about everyday for the last 7 weeks. I have run a ton of fly fishing trips and have had few slow trips and some great ones ( best was 7 reds on fly biggest 13 pounds) also caught cobia, ambrjack, spadefish and spanish mack on fly over the last month. Bait fishing has been good for reds and sheepshead, trout have been tearing up Zman grubs with pro cure. The kids are happy the sharks are back inshore had a family catch 14 bonnethead sharks (3-5ft) the other day, blast on light tackle.
