Spanish, Blues, Pompano all in the surf with a light surf rod, high speed reel, and 1-1/4 oz Stingsilver (and/or 1 oz. Kastmaster), reel as fast as you can. I use a couple of rods in the 1/2 to 1-3/4 to 2 oz., lure rating and reel with 10 or 15 lbs braid - those lures cast like a bullet, let it drop a bit and reel fast. Those fish will run close once the water hits 68 to 70 degrees (for sure by May). I use a Penn Spinfisher VI 3500 and a Daiwa Saltist MQ 3000 - light and fast (can’t reel too fast for the Spanish, slow down and you’ll catch Blues). Lot of fun to me. I fish further north in NC, but you should have the same action. There is an inlet on the island between Isle of Palms and Sullivan’s Island that I fished several years back, Breaches Inlet, it has public parking and a jetty. There was a good restaurant right there too (Boathouse) Good luck!
