NOTHING COULD BE BETTER THAN FISHING IN CAROLINA ON FRIPP ISLAND Winter Fishing Looks Good and Fripp Fishing and Boating Hard to Beat Contributed By: Captain Ralph Goodison
FISHING FORECAST
Fripp Island has been discovered. What do I mean? For over 25 years of writing for the Trawler, Fripp Island was like a hidden secret on the Atlantic coast. This last year many have found Fripp as a great place to visit, vacation or be an owner and enjoy the beach, golf, tennis, lack of commercialism, good island management and some of the best boating and fishing. Our island sits on one of the largest estuary on the Atlantic coast. No secret now; Fripp has been discovered.
INSHORE: Blackdrum, Trout, and Whiting: Good; Red fish: Fair
Winter fishing has been good. Over the years we have had fair to good fishing with changes in the quantities of fish species. With all the changes we sit on a great place to fish, boat and enjoy great amenities.
