What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Summerton, South Carolina for the first time?

If you go in July bring lots of water and sun screen and don't be afraid to have fun with the captain he was so so cool.captain pageit was awesome and very Knowledgeable about catfishing and he did not mind at all to share some of that knowledge with us and he really answered every question we asked . It started out slow but captain Brad was relentless at putting us on fish my next trip for catfish will be with him . My 2 friends that was with me was reeling them in awesome job guys can't wait to do another trip with them.

Bring sunscreen, sunglasses and hats. I chose to wear long pants and long sleeve shirt both light weight and quick dry. I was happy but warm.

Be prepared for weather changes this time of year the fishing is great but thunderstorms pop up quickly and often but don’t let that discourage you this is a great time for fishing

Be prepared for smaller fish this time of year, but we caught about 15 so the bite was fairly steady

April temps at Santee are nice and not as hot and humid. Nice weather! Big fish if you can catch them hungry!

Santee is a big lake with lots of area to fish! Just tough finding them sometimes and making them bite. Big ones are here though!

Come on and give Captain Kieth with Santee Cooper Fishing Guide your business. You will not be let down.

The fish are large and pull hard. You can also arrange to have them filleted for you.

Go with an experienced charter service who can help you get familiar with the lake.

Get a guide! They know where to take you to the fish! Captain Brad Padgett is who I recommend !

Watch the weather closely. We had to reschedule a couple times due to very bad weather

Focus on Sping and Fall fishing trips, Summer is too hot and not as productive.

Make sure you bring the proper equipment for the heat from the sun... And stay hydrated...
