Grand Strand Angler

Grand Strand Angler

Fishing along the South Carolina coast in all forms: Jetty Fishing, Surf fishing, Kayak fishing, Boat fishing, and freshwater fishing.
My name is Justin and I'm from South Carolina. I graduated from Coastal Carolina University with a degree in Biology and a specialization in Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation. I am a lifelister which means I am a multispecies fisherman who tries to catch any and ALL species I can (game fish or not)

    My best advice is to go on google maps/earth. Find a body of water you like, and follow it til you find a public access point. Not much public access around this area of SC. Most boat launches don't allow fishing and everything else is private. There are a few spots though (and probably some more I haven't found). Just gotta put in the work. Good luck!

    Thank you, but all of the fish in this video are not fragile species and are completely fine even if they fall on dry ground/held with dry hands. Additionally, if we REALLY cared about every single fish, we wouldnt be putting hooks through their heads to begin with :) Have a nice day.

    Red Drum and different sharks are very common. At night time you can get some Weakfish from the shore as well. Lots of mullet in the waves so you can cast net mullet and collect sand fleas in the surf. Sometimes a nice flounder will bite mullet in the surf too.

  • @grandstrandangler8129
    @grandstrandangler8129 Жыл бұрын

    I think the new weather coming in and the el nino this year is making it wonky. In 2 weeks or so the fishing should get more consistent and easier. I see no correlation between the tide and catching fish. I dont fish in north myrtle but all beaches are a little different. I would say just keep sticking with it and wait out this transitional period. The fish should be moving in any time now. What are you using for bait/rigs?

  • @grandstrandangler8129
    @grandstrandangler8129 Жыл бұрын

    The most difficult pond to catch bass in Market Commons is the main very large pond. That pond probably has the biggest bass but good luck catching them. Remember there's lots of ponds that stretch that whole road. There's about 7 of them and you can catch fish in all of them. I'd suggest a rooster tail in the spring during the day and a small spinnerbait when the water cools off. Right now is a good time to fish anything topwater in the early morning and at night.

    Sadly, the closest lake to Myrtle Beach is in North Carolina. Also, It'll be difficult to catch carp in general here. Your best bet is the location in this video or a private pond that you have permission to fish (good luck finding that). We're not an area known for our carp fishing.

    @grandstrandangler8129 Жыл бұрын

    I gotchu. Currently making some more videos now. I'll do some informative stuff about how to target different fish from the surf. You must have been fishing during the big Spot run. They only come through thick about 2 times a year but there's thousands of them so it's hard to catch any other fish using shrimp, squid, or worms. Best thing to do would probably be to catch one of them and use it as cutbait for the bigger Reds and Flounder feeding on them.

    Possibly, but I'm pretty positive it was a Bluegill. Spotted Sunnies don't have those vertical bars, they're more oblong and fatter, and those little black spots were most likely parasites. Never 100% sure with the small ones though. Especially because the spotted's can hybridize. Thanks for watchin!
