Black Sea Bass
Black Sea Bass fishing near Beech Island, SC, offers year-round opportunities, though the cooler months often produce the largest fish. While not as abundant in the immediate vicinity of Beech Island due to the brackish water influence, venturing slightly further offshore into the more saline waters of the Atlantic will significantly improve your chances. Target artificial reefs, wrecks, and live bottom areas where these bottom dwellers congregate. Cut bait, such as squid or shrimp, is a reliable choice, but jigging with metal lures can also be productive. A key tip is to use a fish finder to locate structure and schools of fish. Be aware of the strong currents in this area, and use appropriately weighted tackle to keep your bait on the bottom. Several charter boats operate out of nearby ports and offer guided trips for Black Sea Bass. Remember to check the current regulations regarding size and bag limits before you head out.
