Cold
Water Fish
Winters like the one we are having this year can be
really hard on our inshore fish. The record low temperatures we
experienced over the last few weeks really dropped inshore water
temperatures and sent fish into slow motion. Speaking with a few
people that fished during those cold days, they noted that most of
the redfish they caught did not put up any kind of fight choosing
the path of least resistance, swimming right to the boat.

The Charleston Boat
Show and Water Missions International Team Up for Haiti Relief this
Weekend!
Water Missions International will be on site at the 30th annual
Charleston Boat Show to answer questions about their current relief
efforts in Haiti.
Safe water is a critical and urgent need in the
aftermath of any disaster. Existing water sources become
contaminated, people are squeezed into refugee camps and temporary
housing, sanitation is poor or non-existent and the threat of
wide-spread disease becomes a daily burden. Water Missions
International’s uniquely-designed water treatment equipment provides
safe drinking water quickly after a disaster. A Living Water™
Treatment System can be transported easily by pick-up truck to
remote communities that may be otherwise unreachable by other modes
of transportation due to compromised roads and raging rivers. Once
in place, the system can be assembled and operating within a matter
of a few hours.
Since Water Missions International’s first disaster
response after Hurricane Mitch in 1998, they have provided safe
water and hope to over a million people in more than 38 countries
around the world.
“We will have a water purification unit on display at
the Boat Show so people can see how the systems work. If they so
choose, guests at the boat show may make donations toward Haiti
disaster response and learn about opportunities to assist with the
life saving work of WMI,” said Molly Greene, Founder of Water
Missions International.
Boaters are in the business of water for fun. Water
Missions International is in the business of water for life. “The
Charleston Boat Show has a loyal, dedicated following of boating and
fishing enthusiasts. It’s our hope that they will support the
amazing efforts of Water Missions International. With thousands of
people at the Show, we know we can all help make a difference,” said
Charleston Boat Show producer, Jacqui Bomar.
The Charleston Boat Show opens this Friday, January 22
at the North Charleston Convention Center.
• Friday Noon-6pm; Saturday 10am-6pm; Sunday 11am-5pm
• FREE Parking
• Tickets: Adults $8 (receive $2 off by bringing 5 canned goods to
the Show to benefit Lowcountry Food Bank)

The Final Word |
The
fishing this past week has been a little better with
temperatures and conditions favorable for fishing offshore
and inshore. Inshore the fish are feeding, but are looking
for an easy meal, trying to conserve their energy. Scented
baits are working well along with live bait. Grubs are also
working as long as you retrieve them slowly. Offshore there
has been a really good wahoo bite with some really large
fish 70+ pounds being taken on the troll. Most of the fish
are in deep water beyond 500’ deep. One boat reported
catching 2 sailfish, which is really good for January. The
bottom fishing is going strong and the sheepshead and black
sea bass are thick nearshore as well. Looks like this warmer
weather may hold into next week, so if you get a chance to
get out, don’t forget the sunscreen.
Tight
lines…
