    Probably 07-08.

    Stripa?
    Be proactive about improving public waterfowl habitat in South Carolina. It's not going to happen by itself, and our help is needed. We have the potential to winter thousands of waterfowl on public grounds if we fight for it.

    I don't remember but won't deny it. My boy has been beating it into my head for the last couple years. I'm slow and now defer all fish related questions to him.

    Snook make me happy. Whoever is releasing them should put some in the salt. Who wants to catch pond snook?

    My pond is saltwater. We had a fish kill mid summer. Had dnr come out and run some tests. There was too much freshwater from all the rain we had at that time. We had Trout, blackdrum, sheepshead, spotail, ladyfish, and flounder in there before the kill. Most fish were small except the few 23+” trout I put in there in the spring. The bass were doing great too before the kill.

    There have been numerous recent catchings of Swordspine Snook in the Charleston area. I'm guessing they came out of ponds from the floodings of last couple years. They prefer brackish to dingy fresh water. They average 12" in size although some may get slightly bigger. Ballyhoo are also being netted in the Wando. No guess where they are coming from other than the hurricane pushing them in.

    Two seasons ago I thew the net on a school of ballyhoo in PRS.
    Snook have been caught down in Beaufort County and Savannah area at random of course for years.

    I've seen them at the Little River Inlet tide line many times in the late summer.
