Josh Boyles at Southern Drawl Outfitters reports that bull reds have ben the main target as of late. BIG redfish in the 20 to 40-pound range are being caught inshore and offshore on cut mullet and menhaden. The slot size reds are also abundant, especially when fly anglers are targeting the flooded marsh bite at high tide. The trout bite down South remains great, so much so that Josh thinks the future trout population is looking good. Lots of people are reporting seeing sheepshead up on the flooded grass falts with the reds, and this is becoming a more and more common sight. Finally, Josh shares that it's not over for the tarpon bite in Port Royal Sound until the fat lady sings, so wet a big bait for the dual threat of catching either a bull red or maybe even a silver king.

Offshore Report: Josh reports that trolling has been a little spotty, but some wahoo are still being taken. Sailfish are out there too, but bait-balls have been thin. Blackfin tuna are showing up and their presence will add some action for the bluewater enthusiast. Bottom fishing has been great with the grouper bite and the Red Snapper being the best. Also, bottom bumpers are catching vermillion snapper, triggerfish and porgies, fishing over live bottom areas.
Scott shares that anyone who put their offshore boat up for the season is missing out on a nice wahoo run in 150 - 300 feet of water, with a two to five fish average per trip! A few slinger dolphin are showing up as well, making for a mixed bag. A few blackfin tuna are around but sailfish numbers seem to be off somewhat, with two to four shots at a sailfish per trip. Bottomfishing in 75 to 110-feet of water is producing some nice triggers and beeliners. Swordfish are also being caught during overnight trips to the Charelston Bump!
