Fish'n & Hunt'n Reports

Jan. 09

 

Thomas, Tommy & Ronnie & the rest of the crew at LOW COUNTRY MARINE in Walterboro would like to wish all of it’s friends & customers a save & prosperous New Year. The store is stocked with all your hunting accessories, hunting clothing, guns, scopes, ammo, camo, boots and more. Of course, no one has a better selection of boats for the Low Country then Low Country Marine. Come by & check out the great buys on Carolina Skiff, War Eagle & many more boats that are rigged out & ready for the water. Boat Show prices, all the time! Local sportsmen are out deer hunting or into some Duck hunting. With the cooler weather and shorter days the bigger bucks should be moving during the day. January 1st. & the close of another Deer Season is approaching. For the Fisherman, the coastal creeks around Edisto Island are great for lots of action. Spottail bass are hitting on mud minnows and cut mullet worked near live oyster beds on the falling tide. Also fish the deep holes on low tide. In the three local rivers, it’s a great time to fish for bass, catfish and crappie. Bass can be caught on Texas rigged worms and small crankbaits fished close to structure near the bank. The catfish can be caught in deep holes in the rivers using live and cut bait. Some crappie can be caught using minnows.

The good folks at BLACK WATER BAIT & TACKLE @ Jellico's Landing tell us really big bucks are being taken in the local area around the Edisto River & local hunters are looking forward to extra time off during the holidays to chase down those big bucks. Of course the Deer Season closes Jan. 1st. Huge catfish are still being taken on the Edisto. Largemouth bass fish'n can be very productive this time of year. Just remember to bring the bait back a bit slower as they're a bit sluggish with the colder water temperature. Stop by for your bait needs or just stop by & visit while you enjoy a cold beer or soft drink. Happy New Year!

EDISTO OUTBOARD & MARINE is located, on Hwy 17A near Cottageville, [12053 Cottageville Hwy]. They are running a huge sale on 08’ G3’s, in stock, boats that are perfect for the rivers & creeks of the Lowcountry.

Stop in, check out their showroom & get to know the folks at Edisto Outboard & Marine. They running special boat show prices & there is not be a better time to buy! Have a Happy New Year.

WALTERBORO FEED & GARDEN SUPPLY, INC. on S. Jefferies blvd. has all of the necessary food & seed supplies you’ll need. The hunters in the Low Country are out in full force & are looking forward to the extra time the holidays will provide. Of course the season with end on Jan. 1st. It will be time for the hunters to turn their attention to Duck Hunting! "Be safe & good luck hunt’n & fish’n & have a safe & Happy New Year!"

When you take that huge Buck & you're looking to preserve it as a lifetime trophy, take it to FREDDY'S LOWCOUNTRY TAXIDERMY. Fred Avant does some great work on his mounts. His shop is located just 5 miles west of I-95 on Hwy 63 West of Walterboro. There is a sign on the left side of the road. The area hunters are looking forward to the time off from work that the holidays will provide, so they can spend more time in the woods. Those big bucks are roaming around & hopefully right into your gun or bow sight. Enjoy some good Low Country Hunt'n & Fish'n during the holidays & be safe in the woods!

Come on out & check out the show room at PLANTATION MARINE in Walterboro or in Moncks Corner or stop by their booth at the "Charleston Boat Show" @ The North Charleston Coliseum in late Jan. They’ll have large display of NauticStar boats, Pro Line & Triton (Aluminum) boats. For you hunters, Plantation Marine handles a large selection of Camo clothing & accessories. They’re having a huge clearance sale on their line of hunt’n clothing. You can choose power by Honda, Suzuki & Tohatsu. It’s that time of year for some great Spottail Bass fish’n now that the waters have cooled down & cleared up. Look for the Spottail Bass to be schooling in the flats, trying to stay in warmer water. A sharp eye will spot them "Finning" in the flats. Try a spoon tipped with a mud minnow & work it very slowly. The fish are very lethargic just as we are in the cold. It’s a good time for gigging for flounder as the water is much clearer this time of year. The Spots & Whiting fish’n has been great & Flounder are being taken on live shrimp, mud minnows & fingerling mullet. For Trout, we recommend live shrimp or grubs but water temperature needs to be at least in the 50's. Tammy & William, wish all a very Happy New Year!
