South Carolina Fishing

Fall bass fishing is a time honored tradition in our neck of the woods. You can expect great things from your stream when the leaves turn gold, orange, and crimson. That chill nips at your skin when the sun dips below the horizon. And harvest season fills your plate with the finest vegetables and wine this side of the corn field. People around these parts flock so to the rivers and ponds that you almost have to make reservations if you want you favorite spot on the bend.

You better know what you’re doing, too, with this audience. Or at least, you better look like you know what you’re doing. So if you can’t walk the walk, you better at least dress and pack like you’re trying. That means bringing along a quality case for all of your flies, lures, and other tackle. High-tech cases nowadays come made with heavy duty plastic polymers that seal tight when you shut them. Some even can float in case they go for a swim by accident. If you want to show off all of your colorful worms, flies, and lures, look for clear cases.

Use old or poor quality fishing reels if you want to lose that big fish. Combined with the wrong leaders and tippets, your wrong reels will cost you all the glory of the big catch. If that’s not enough, throw the wrong reel on your fly fishing pole, too. It will make sure that your whole outfit is out of whack. Sounds like a plan, right? Wrong.

Any serious angler knows that it’s essential to have a great reel if you want to actually catch something on the lake or the stream. Buy something cheap if all you’re looking for is a couple hours of peace and quiet and a few brews. Not that there’s anything wrong with a little quiet time in the Great Outdoors, but the whole reason for being out on a boat at 5 am, or waist high in a river, is to reel something in.
