"Technically, two pieces of bread and a piece of flounder make this a “sandwich.” But we defy anyone to pick it up and eat it that way. The flounder is too tender and falls apart; plus, it’s three times bigger than the bread. For us, it’s finger food … delicious finger food."

"While there are no seats for dining at the Fish Net, there is a bench where you can sit and wait while your food is cooked. Here’s Jane, waiting for an order of Jesus crabs."

"A nice combo plate of fried shrimp and deviled (Jesus) crab. Both are extremely salty and demand plenty of sweet tea or soda pop to drink on the side."

"This prayer written on a board next to the display of raw fish greets everyone who enters."

"We might not have stopped at this tumbledown seafood market if our friend Sue Highfield hadn’t tipped us off to the good eats inside."

"One weatherman predicted that the temperature-humidity index was going to hit 129 the August day we stopped at Fishnet Seafoods. That is why my camera lens fogged up the moment I stepped out of the air conditioned car."

"Shortly after Fishnet opened at 10am, they still were putting out fresh fish on ice. Here you see the beginning of a school of flounder."
Michael Stern
"Fishnet is a very religious place, decorated with quotes from scripture."

On US 17 south of Charleston, look for a dilapidated former gas station with a large parking lot outside where the pumps used to be. The parking lot is important because it is where you will dine if you are just passing through. There is no place to eat inside Fishnet Seafood, which is primarily a raw seafood market.
