We finally got to go out, gulfstream fishing 60miles off Murrels Inlet.
It wasnt exactly what I expected, but lots of fun.
We were fishing in roughly 150-200 feet of water and the action was fast an furious.
Most of the fish caught were Vermillion or Crimson Snapper(I think) with a bunch of MONSTER scup looking fish. We also caught a bunch of shark (nice to know they plague down there too but these had big teeth), a bunch of amberjack, triggerfish, and a few grouper.
For a nice surprise, a few small bluefish were caught, and a few LARGE amberjack (20lbs+) were caught... They look JUST like blues with no teeth. I didnt get an pictures - but you all know what a blue looks like anyway.
All in all it was a great day, I caught well over 60 fish.. My arms were killing me. Reccomended if you are ever in the area.
Now im looking forward to getting home and going back after the striped ones... Ohhhh yes... Tomorrow sweet tomorrow.:D
