Anglers Persevere In Tough Conditions

The Conroy's  - Neil and his son, Lewis, and grandfather Bob fished with me Thursday afternoon.  The weather was actually pretty nice with some cloud cover but the wind had picked up to 10-15 mph and made it difficult to fish open water areas.  But these anglers were here to fish and persevered through the conditions to catch some fish.   We hit Jackstaff as our first stop, had a Ladyfish hookup and then Neil landed a hungry Seatrout.  The wind was rocking the boat so we made  a run to the sanctuary of Broward Island and fished the downed logs.  Here, Neil floated a lively mud minnow past a submerged log and when the float rig disappeared he had hookup, FISH ON!  He worked the nice Trout in to be photographed and released.   We ventured back out into the wind, fished the Twin Creek area of Nassau River and picked up a Jack Crevalle, two hungry Redfish and a Sea Bass.  The wind was again making fishing difficult so we ran over to the docks of Black Hammock, fished them, then wrapped up the trip back at Sawpit Creek.
