Great Trout Bite Today

After fishing north Amelia Island the last few times we decided to make a change and fish the south
end for a change.  I met Wesley and Tina Smith and their son Alex down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp at Big Talbot Island this morning and we headed up the Nassau River to fish Bubblegum Reef as the tide came in.  We hadn't been fishing the bottom long with 1/4 oz Thunda Jigs when the anglers began to get hookups.  Tina reeled in the first Jack Crevalle of the year and then Alex had a good hookup and caught a nice keeper sized Seatrout.  All the

anglers began to have good bites and caught hungry Seatrout and then Tina added another keeper to the box.  We made a run to the logs of Broward Island and although the fishing was slow, Wesley did hookup with a good Seatrout.  We fished Christopher Creek with no real bites then headed over to Jackstaff as the tide began to flood and the wind picked up.  These anglers were game though and worked the bank with float rigs and jigs.  Tina had a heafty Whiting and Alex reeled in a nice 20" Seatrout to round out another great day to be out on Amelia Island waters.
