Fishing Report: Oct. 1

Posted
Crappie: Fair to good. Captain Steve English (843-729-4044) reports that crappie fishing is picking up over mid-depth brush. Minnows and jigs are both catching fish. Bass: Fair. Steve Harmon reports that we are coming into a period when bass fishing can be really good, as fish move out of their deeper haunts and towards the banks. Frogs, spinnerbaits and plastic worms fished around shallow cover should all catch fish. Bream: Slow to fair. Captain Steve English reports that bluegill are starting to stack up on brush piles where they will take crickets and worms. Catfish: Slow to fair. The catfish bite has been a little tough recently. Try prospecting both shallow and deep with cut bait or dip baits for channel catfish.
