Inshore: Captain Ron Davis Jr. (843-513-0143) reports that the beginning of September will look a lot like the latter part of August, but as temperatures cool they are hopeful the action will continue to improve. The trout bite should pick up around points on live shrimp or mullet, and in September some bigger migratory fish should come through. There should continue to be tons of small redfish caught in the creeks, and there should also be more larger fish feeding up. Flounder fishing should only improve on live finger mullet after a good summer for numbers, and this month will likely be the peak of tarpon season in the inlets with menhaden or mullet. The better sheepshead should also start to bite more around heavy structure.Surf: Whiting, croaker and bluefish should all be feeding in the surf.Nearshore and offshore: Bull red drum should be found in about 15-22 feet of water, and summer trout fishing will be wide open at the mouths of inlets and the nearshore reefs and rocks once water temperatures drop into the low 70s. Spanish mackerel should continue to bust on the surface until water temperatures fall into the mid-60s. Strong bottom fishing will move into 70-90 feet of water, and offshore wahoo and tuna will start to really feed up when water temperatures hit around 75 degrees.
