Race with an Osprey

I fished with Michael Fuhrman and his two sons, Zachary and Austin, yesterday. It was a beautiful, sunny afternoon as we left the South end of Amelia Island at 2pm. We stopped at the docks of Longpointe and with his first cast, Zachary hooked up to a fat trout and then shortly after, another. We eventually pulled anchor and ran up the intercoastal where we got into a race with an Osprey just off his perch. We clocked him at 33mph! We stoppped at Jackstaff Creek and fished a couple of spots then ran to "Bubblegum Reef" and were joined by a Crane fishing for his early dinner. Austin and his dad got in some action catching a few croaker and a neat Sail Catfish. All of our fish were released to be caught another day. We visited Broward Island, then wrapped up the day at Middle Marsh to try our hand at some big Drum fishing. What a great day out on the water with two polite young men!
