South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

did my yearly detail on the wife’s T4r. Still looks amazing for being a 2018 and 90k on it. Now doing some paint correction and then ceramic coating on the Cummins.
Sold the eco boost, great truck for daily driving but terrible pulling any weight in the trailers. Didn’t like the trans at all with anything over 6-7k.

Bought a Honda oddessy for the 2 girls and 3rd boy coming in October. Needed a better family rig compared to the t4r. Then I bought another Cummins back in January. Plan is to keep this one. One owner since 06, every service record since new, 112k on the clock when I bought it. Pulls a 10k horse trailer like it’s not even there. Can’t say I miss the Tacoma’s I had at all since we got the T4r and outgrew the tacos. New tundra’s were a hard pass for me after driving and being around them. Back to a diesel!

 

What areas do you usually fish? Wando? Cooper? Stono? Ashley? Our kids are starting to get to the point where I can get back out again. Thanks for keeping us posted on since good catches

 

I fish mainly in Charleston. Started out kayak fishing in Matlacha in Cape Coral Florida. Over there it’s fishing mangroves and grassy flats. Only been in Charleston 2 years and hired a guide when I got here to learn the techniques for fishing here. I use ned rigs with different size jig heads and top water. In Florida you could throw top water anytime of day and they would hit it. It’s a little more hit and miss here. But it’s awesome when they do hit it.

 

I’ve been trying top water here recently when I can get out and haven’t had any luck yet. Usually right around sunrise. Had some luck with DOA under a popping cork early in the year, and a few trout on the electric chicken on a jig head but here in the past few weeks it’s died on the creek I usually fish. Keep the pictures coming! I’m catching vicariously through you right now.

Stupid tree rats! Drove the truck to work today just to drive it since it tends to sit. Went to check the oil at work and they'd chewed the alternator connector and almost thru the wire. Had to tape that back up.

 

Dislike! They are a bunch of little shits! Cats have killed 3 mice that I am aware of so far. Still seeing mice poop under the hoods though.

 

22LR + suppressor.

 

Unfortunately, I don't have a 22 with a threaded barrel. I do have a suppressed 300blk though.

 

You could definitely vaporize a few rodents with that!

 

I use a 22 air rifle in my back yard. Took out a very tall, large, and potentially blue bird that is probably protected because it ate a bunch of koi out of my pond that weren't cheap. Does in the racoons as well.

 

The three s's rule shoot, shovel, and shut up.
