Recipe of the Week |
Shrimp Scampi
Ingredients:
1 Pound of Medium Shrimp – Peeled and de-veined
1 1/2 Tbsp of Pure Olive Oil
2 Tbsp of Finely Chopped Garlic
1 ˝ Cups of White Wine
1/2 cup of Fresh Lemon (use the juice only)
1 Tsp Italian Seasoning mix
1/2 Cup of Butter
1 Tbsp of Fresh Parsley chopped
Flavor with Salt and Pepper
Directions:
Heat skillet and then add in the olive oil, and do
not allow the oil to smoke. Add the shrimp and cook
it until tender and it's no longer translucent. Next
remove the shrimp from the pan and decrease heat
slightly. Add the garlic and cook it for 2-3
minutes. Try not to brown the garlic as this will
render a slightly bitter flavor. Once the garlic is
cooked, add the white wine. Squeeze some juice from
the lemon into the pan, and reduce the wine by half.
After it is reduced, next add the Italian seasoning
blend. Now reduce the heat to low, and slowly add in
butter, 1 Tbsp at a time. The butter should slowly
begin to dissolve into the sauce and create a nice
creamy texture. If the pan is too hot the butter
will separate. As soon as the butter is assimilated,
add the shrimp back into the sauce, sprinkle the
parsley, and season to taste with salt and pepper. |

This Week's Article |
Gone
Sheep’n
Gone Sheep'n has become a popular term among local fishermen over
the past couple of years. These fishermen are not referring to work
they have to do on the farm before they can go fishing. They are
actually referring to fishing for one of the most popular fish in
the lowcountry, the Sheepshead. These fish are popular because they
provide a challenge each and every time you fish for them. They
always put up a great fight, but the biggest challenge lies in
hooking them. Many a fisherman has left the dock to fish for
Sheepshead only to return to the dock with the same amount of fish
they left with and a lot less bait. My personal philosophy on
Sheepshead fishing was I'm going to feed plenty and if I'm lucky I
may actually catch one or two. Over the years I have refined my
techniques and listened to other more experienced Sheepshead anglers
and today I'm happy to say I catch almost as many as I feed.

Getting Information
About SC Public Boat Ramps Now Easier Than Ever
Planning a day on the water is now easier than ever
with a new search feature at the S.C. Department of Natural
Resources Web site. The Managed Lands section has been enhanced to
include a searchable database for public boat in ramps in South
Carolina. This list can be found through the Managed Lands section
or directly at
https://www.dnr.sc.gov/mlands/boatramp
You can search boat ramps by lake, reservoir and river
or by county. There you'll find detailed printable maps along with
longitude/latitude, contact information and even features about the
boat ramp like number of fishing piers, parking spaces, boat
launches and courtesy docks. The lakes or reservoirs listed are not
a complete list of lakes or reservoirs in South Carolina.
While at the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR)
Managed Lands site make sure to explore other public properties
around the state. You can search properties by name, county location
or activity. Get descriptions and maps of fishing lakes, scenic
rivers, bird sanctuaries and more.
Marine Anglers,
A new year is underway that holds a lot of promise. There was
63 fish tagged in January, a new record. The growing number of fish
being tagged in December and January adds a new dimension to the
Dolphin Research. It is the first time that we have the opportunity
to begin learning the movement patterns of fish around Puerto Rico.
There is also the real possibility that one of these Puerto Rican
tags could be recovered by an angler off the U.S. East Coast. Fall
and winter tagging off Florida has resulted in recoveries that are
beginning to show a different movement behavior from the summer fish
found off the Sunshine state. Recoveries resulting form these
Florida tags, could help settle the raging debate over whether there
is a fall southerly migration off south Florida.
With a prayer that the economy continues to strengthen,
I look forward to 2010 and the exciting information that the tagging
and tag recoveries will bring.
Good fishing,
Don

The Final Word |
The
fishing this past week has been pretty good considering the
weather and wind. Some people did fish over the weekend
after the snow and caught some nice redfish, a few trout,
and some black sea bass offshore. This weekend is actually
looking like the first good weather weekend we’ve had in
quite some time to if you get a chance to get out, let the
rest of us know how you did. We will keep our fingers
crossed that the weathers weekend turns out nice.
Tight
lines…
