Are the March Winds Gone?

Spring Break visitors to Amelia Island were greeted with one last blast of winter and strong winds to begin the week.  Fishing guides had to push back trips to the latter part of the week and in some cases cancel trips all together.  But luckily, I was able to get out yesterday with Mark Friedman and his sons Jay and Josh and their friend Drew.  We met at the City marina just after noon and headed up to Lanceford Creek.  Our first cast produced a feisty Redfish!  The anglers continued to have good hookups and brought in 4-5

more Red's.  Then Josh went deep and fished on the bottom and caught a nice 18" Seatrout.  Drew followed his lead and he too brought in a keeper sized Trout.  We moved on down Lanceford and fished an oyster hump then made a run to Tiger Island.  Josh's first cast produced a nice 17 3/4" Flounder, putting him in first place in The Anglers Mark 2013 Bragging Rights Tournament! (scroll right side of this report) The anglers picked up some hungry Seatrout, another smaller Flounder, then Jay reeled in the last keeper sized Trout.  With that, we called it a day, another great one to be out on Amelia Island waters!
