Lynches ‘Mob’

Redbreast sunfish are a fish of slow-moving streams like the Lynches River and a favorite of anglers that target them.

Rebreast sunfish make this wild, scenic river a fisherman’s dream.

Dalton Reams of Sumter summed up a sure-fire way to land a mess of redbreast sunfish on the Lynches River in July.

“See that stump? Now look at that eddy just below it. And do you see that trickle of water from that incoming creek just below the eddy?” Reams asked.

Moments later, he cast a No. 2 Mepps Aglia spinner between the stump and the eddy. After a few turns on the handle of his reel, his ultralight spinning rod bowed. For a second, the dark water of the Lynches glowed red, then Reames lifted a brightly-colored redbreast bream out of the river.
