Last Minute Big Trout

My after noon trip today began with some thunderclouds overhead but Scott Carter and his two sons Sammy and Benny were game to get in some Amelia Island fishing.  We fished south of Rayonier on the very last of an incoming tide but had no real bites then headed up Lanceford Creek to fish a very high tide.  Benny had the hot rod early and landed a couple of feisty Redfish.  We moved around to a grass patch in the middle of some flooded oysters and Benny picked up a hungry Seatrout.  We had to make a short move due to a fast

moving thunderstorm and so we ducked in at Oyster Bay to fish their pilings and again had no real bites.  Our next run was to Tiger
Island  and her Benny again found a Redfish.  Then Scott got in on the action and picked up a Seatrout on a jig and Temptation Bait white fluke.  He continued to work the fluke and with only minutes away from us leaving he had a stong hookup and a good fight on his hands.  He played the fish patiently and soon landed a nice 19" Seatrout!  We dehooked the fish and on Scott's next cast he had another strong hookup and this time landed another big 18" Seatrout!  With that, we called it a day, another great one to be out on Amelia Island waters!
