Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 14:4 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview Georgetown

Georgetown fishing revolves around a diverse estuarine system where the Waccamaw, Sampit, Black, and Pee Dee Rivers meet Winyah Bay, then push out to the Atlantic. This blend of rivers, marsh, and ocean creates strong tides, natural bait funnels, and year‑round opportunities for inshore, nearshore, and freshwater anglers. Understanding how wind and tide move bait through the bay is the key to consistent success.

Spring kicks off reliable inshore action as water temperatures climb. Red drum, spotted seatrout, and flounder feed along shell banks, oyster bars, and marsh edges in Winyah Bay and its feeder creeks. Look for clean, moving water on a rising tide and work soft plastics or suspending twitchbaits across current seams. In the rivers, largemouth bass, crappie, and bream feed aggressively around cypress knees, laydowns, and creek mouths; small crankbaits, beetle‑spins, and finesse plastics produce steady bites.

Summer brings peak variety. Inshore, target redfish and trout at first and last light when water temps are lower. Focus on deeper bends in creeks, grass edges with 2–4 feet of water, and current breaks around docks and pilings. Live shrimp under a popping cork or mud minnows on light jig heads are hard to beat. Flounder stack along channel edges and sandbars near inlets; slowly drag a live bait or Gulp‑style soft plastic along the bottom. Offshore, king and Spanish mackerel, cobia, spadefish, snapper, and grouper hold over nearshore reefs, live bottom, and wrecks. Troll spoons and small plugs for mackerel, then switch to bottom rigs with cut or live bait when you mark fish tight to structure.

Fall is arguably the best season for Georgetown inshore fishing. Cooling water concentrates bait in creeks and along bay channels, and redfish school tightly on flats, oyster bars, and at creek mouths. Work gold spoons, paddle‑tail plastics, and live finger mullet with the current; focus on points where bait is pushed past ambush cover. Speckled trout feed heavily on moving tides around grass lines and drop‑offs—drift a popping cork and shrimp or cast small hardbaits across rips and eddies. In the rivers, striped bass and largemouth bass respond well to shad‑style lures and topwaters around current breaks and bridge pilings.

Winter fishing centers on deeper holes, bay channels, and river ledges. Redfish often gather in large schools in shallow but sun‑warmed mud flats and in deeper creek bends. Use smaller profile jigs and fish them slowly near the bottom, paying attention to subtle bites. Black drum and sheepshead relate to hard structure such as rocks, docks, and pilings; vertical presentations with fiddler crabs or shrimp on light Carolina rigs or jig heads are effective. In freshwater, focus on slow presentations for bass and crappie around deep timber and creek channels with jigs and soft plastics.

Across seasons, anglers in Georgetown should think in terms of tide, current, and clarity. Fish ambush points where current wraps around bends, points, and man‑made structure. Scale down leaders in clear water, and don’t hesitate to move often until you find active fish. With its mix of tidal backwaters, big rivers, and nearshore structure, Georgetown consistently rewards anglers who adapt to conditions and match local forage with natural presentations.
