Whiting Fishing in the Beaufort, SC Area
Whiting are one of the most popular fish targeted from the surf. The Atlantic ocean will hold tons of whiting in the surf from spring through fall. Beaufort doesn’t have a lot of beaches here, but Huntington Island State Park offers a nice beach and anglers catch plenty of whiting there in the surf.
Whiting Fishing Tips
Use smaller baits if you want to consistently hook a whiting. Live and cut baits work great with shrimp being the favorite bait for most anglers. Make sure to use smaller hooks, but you don’t want to go too light with your rod and reel. In the surf, you will need some heavier line and a good-sized rod and reel still since you will deal with the crashing waves, current and potentially some bigger fish that may take your baits as well.
