Hey Peach,
I bet me and my Daddy have fished with you on the city pier in PCB. We were regulars for about twenty years. Remember Dan the pier man?


Sounds very familiar. I mostly fish Navarre Pier, but have fished PC pier many times over the years. Fished it regularly when it opened in about 1976 and John and Jerry Simpson ran the pier.

Thanks for the tips guys. I am planning a trip in June with my wife and we are thinking about going down to the Apalachicola bay area. I get up at daylight and the wife usually sleeps in so I am planning on taking my spinning rod with me to find a place to walk the beach or bay shore in the mornings and sling some artificial lures around and see what I might catch and this post will help get me started. I will probably try the live bait on another trip.

Leroy drive over to St George Island while you're at Apalach and fish the bay side on the east end by the church retreat. Live shrimp on a poping cork or I tie my monofilament line to fluorocarbon with about 2' of line then add enough weight at that point to keep the bait off the bottom. Fish the grassy areas on an outgoing morning tide.

We're going to Charleston in March and will be in a place with pier near the folly river and then the folly beach pier.

I'm assuming the gulp shrimp and pogie baits will catch redfish, black drum, and trout. Carolina rigged or bounce on the bottom with a jig head?

If anyone has experience Charleston fishing let me know what you're willing to divulge.

I drag GULPS on a jighead super slow because Im always flounder fishing but reds and trout are the "bycatch". grin


On the Eighth day God created flounder.

I love Gulp 4" shrimp best. Here white or glow are my best colors. I fish them the same way as Tc, but I swim them at a medium speed jiggling the rod the whole time. I catch plenty of flounder and some pretty nice reds. The molting color(white and green mix) works good too.

Life is too short to only hunt and fish on weekends!

I picked up this method from John Skinner (youtube not his books) and used it quite extensively the summer after I graduated around dauphin island. I used it from the beach as well as from a kayak with limited to no success. I'm curious what areas you fished with this method?

Caveat: I was specifically targeting flounder. I only caught 3 flounder with this method. I was more successful catching specs/reds.

Thread resurrection. How much of the previous info applies to seasons. I.E. if I'm on a family trip at Point Clear the first week of February, what are my options from beach/pier?
