Starting to turn on in the Port Royal Sound

Beaufort - Saltwater Fishing Report

As our water temperatures have started to climb into the low 70's things are starting to change. I have seen bait move into the sound the last week, Bonnethead sharks have returned inshore, and the first Cobia of the year in the sound has been caught. I fished both nearshore wrecks and in the sound for Redfish this past week. We killed the Black Sea Bass, a few Sheepshead, and a ton of Bluefish outside this last week. Had a couple of trips inside and did OK on the Reds, although we are still in the transition period we go through with warming water every year. Should all break loose in the next couple of weeks.
