Hey, that first picture almost looks like the Aucilla right below the island. Nice red. And I know where the Wando is- me and Dad used to fish it some in the early 70's but never fished for reds. I remember catching a few trout where the Wando and Cooper River meet
We went up river in his little 14 ft. Jon boat and 9 horse Sears motor. Sometimes a big ship would come by so we had to be careful.

Dixie, we were about 8 or 9 miles up from The Cooper River. We've fished The Cooper a couple of times. It's a different kind of fishing up there. But it's neat to catch those reds.
You're right about the big boats. First trip up there we took a ride down The Cooper to the harbour. Lots of big boats.

TC, we used to go up the Cooper to a place called Cypress Gardens. Great bass fishing and the place had old rice fields everywhere. You may know the place if you have fished the area. I was young but remember it was good fishing. We spent many an hour on Lake Moultrie striper fishing also. Those things fought kinda like big reds.

I've fished out of Cypress Gardens twice. I know where a lot of the old rice fields are. That is a pretty area up there.
