Default Holly Beach
Evening all. Im new to the boards.. and pretty much to saltwater fishing. Havent really done any fishing of any kind in a few years.

Anyway, my dad is wanting to go on a trip down to Holly Beach in the near future, with my and my younger brother. I havent been down there in at least 15 years, and was never very successful at saltwater anywhere I went. We will be fishing from the beach, wading and what not.

Can anyone offer advice on what is the best times of year to fish the area? And any advice on bait and tackle would be a great help as well.

Thanks in advance.

MikeyD

Start stacking up at the rocks out there in June-July after a few days of a calm winds preferably a north wind for a day or so.... Live fingers mullet with circle hooks, cruise the rocks look for bait or pelicans..

If the winds are not coming out of the north......stay home.

If the winds are light for 2 or more days during the summer.....time to fish the beach.

Look for clean water.
Brown water is not good at the rocks.
