Nicholas Winch

Member since May 2018 Isle Of Palms, United States
Background
Growing up in Charleston, Captain Nicholas Winch was lucky enough to be able to fish these beautiful waters just about every day. Having fished since he could walk, there was never any doubt about the importance of fishing in his life. His favorite thing about fishing is the sheer excitement of reeling in the big fish that's almost palpable.
Techniques
In the summer and fall months I like to bottom fish for redfish, black drum, and many more. During the winter and spring the redfish are schooled up making it fun and easy to sneak up on schools of 100 plus fish and sight casting to them.

May 22, 2023 Isle Of Palms
May is almost over and the fishing has been solid. The redfish bite continues to stay steady with a lot of over slot fish. The flounder fishing gets better and better each day, and the trout bite has been steady.

The bull redfish have moved back inshore from the nearshore reefs. This class of fish range from 15 to 40+ pounds! If you want a hard fight then these are the fish for you.

The weather is warm and the fish and feeding hard. The inshore bite is still very good and the jetties bite is getting better and better each day. Menhaden are here which means the big bull reds are THICK in the harbor and at the jetties.

With the water temps on the rise, the fish are hungry and eating erything in sight! The trout bite has been great with some big breeders in the mix. The redfish on the flats are still schooled up and feeding hard!

Went out on a quick little trip to catch some bull redfish. Filled the live-well with plenty of bait in one cast of the cast net, and then we were off to the first spot. I casted the first rod out and before I could get the second bait in the water, the drag started screaming on the first bait. Within minutes we had our first bull red in the boat and it was a STUD! After 2 hours of bent rods and sore arms they decided it was time to head back in!

The BULLS are back!!
The BULLS are back!!

With the water temps steadily warming back up the bull redfish are beginning to make their way back into the jetties and Charleston harbor. Fishing in good current on the edge of the channel and drop-offs have been producing good numbers of bull redfish. These fish range anywhere from 10 pounds to well over 30 pounds!! As each day passes the bite is getting better and better as we are transitioning into the summer months.
