Fishing at Winyah Bay
Winyah Bay is often the main attraction for fishers traveling to Georgetown. Tidal currents combine with the flows of the Pee Dee, Black, Sampit, and Waccamaw Rivers create islands, mud flats, creeks, oyster beds, marshland, and sandbars, allowing countless fishing hot spots for whatever is on your bucket list. Jetties line the mouth of Winyah and sit just above, or a few feet under the surface, creating some of the best fishing on South Carolina's coast. Rising and falling tides flow over these rock structures, carrying large schools of bait, and attracting tons of hungry sea monsters.
