SOUTH CAROLINA FISHING
THE BEST PLACES FOR SOUTH CAROLINA FISHING - FROM THE BEAUFORT LOWCOUNTRY TO THE BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS
By Ken Liebeskind

The old adage "Nothing could be finer than to be in Carolina" applies directly to South Carolina fishing, which has countless best spots to fish – from deep sea sports fishing on the South Carolina coast to bountiful bass lake fishing in the Blue Ridge Mountains. As one angler said, "The biggest problem with fishing in South Carolina is the number of choices anglers have to make in terms of what to fish for and where to go."
Salt water fishing is truly spectacular in South Carolina, where tidal waters offer exciting and challenging sports fishing atop breaking waters, from marsh creeks to estuaries, mudflats and jetties. Choose between inshore fishing for red drum, speckled trout, flounder and bluefish or go deep sea fishing for mahi mahi, mackerel, snapper and sea bass.
Some of the best spots for salt water South Carolina fishing include the Grand Strand, where bluefish, Spanish mackerel, spottail bass and flounder are caught; Charleston, which provides great opportunities for tarpon, trout and bass; Hilton Head, where you can fish for spottail bass and trout; and the Beaufort Lowcountry, where redfish, spotted sea trout, flounder, bluefish and mackerel are plentiful.

Beaufort provides "year round fishing of both northern and southern species in a vast, pristine environment," one angler proclaimed.
If you prefer freshwater fishing, the "Nothing could be finer" adage still holds true because South Carolina features massive man-made lakes and smaller clear mountain lakes for premier clear water fishing opportunities. From Lake Marion that is famous for its record breaking catfish to Lake Jocassee that features trophy smallmouth bass, trout and bluegill, South Carolina anglers are in for a field day every time they fish.
Lake Jocassee offers South Carolina fishing in the Blue Ridge Mountains and Lakes Marion and Moultrie near Santee cover 110,000 acres in five South Carolina counties.
Another South Carolina best fresh water fishing opportunity is the Chattooga River in Oconee County, renowned for its big brawling trout. The wild and scenic Chattooga is one of the last remaining free-flowing rivers in the southern U.S. and has been rated one of the top trout streams by Trout Unlimited. The cool, crystalline waters provide an exceptional opportunity to catch rainbow and brown trout.
Now that we've outlined some of the best South Carolina fishing spots, we'll tell you how to do it - with the best available lures from NGC Sports (www.Ngcsports.com). The company specializes in scientifically designed lures that are guaranteed to at least double your catch. One example is the Dyna-Flex spinner bait that replaces the wire with a flexible tube and chain that makes it impossible for fish to shake the hook. "I've been on the water 40 years and never seen anything like it," one angler said.
