I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon on the water at Sunset Beach with Joe, Heather, and Kailei, who have been vacationing in the Myrtle Beach area this week. Kailei is an avid angler and was looking forward to getting her first taste of inshore saltwater fishing. We were fortunate again today to find some hungry redfish and black drum to pull on, which not only gave Kailei a good fight, but also gave her two more species she can cross off her list of fish to catch. While we stuck with the drum fishing throughout the trip, it sounds like there was a decent flounder bite again today as well. The water temperature got into the mid 70s this afternoon, so the flounder should really start snapping any time now. The big trout which should be around right now have continued to be elusive, which isn't unusual this time of year. The only way to catch them is to keep fishing where they should be and one day you will land on them. You never know, tomorrow we shall try Ocean Isle Beach and that might be the day....
