Nice Slam at Amelia Island



I had Ray and Heidi Stone along with their brother in law Louis Fagre fishing with me last Thursday here at Amelia Island.  We met at the Atlantic Seafood dock down at the City marina at &:30 and headed north to fish Nissan's spot but had no real bites.  But when we made our way around to the outside of Tiger Island, it wasn't long before we had started getting bites and all the anglers were pulling in hungry Seatrout.  We made a run up to the Jolley River and here things heated up real good.  They were all catching feisty Redfish on a jig and shrimp combo when Louis hooked up with something big, FISH ON!  He played the fish perfectly and we soon landed a nice 23" Slot Red!  We conintued to fish and Heidi boated a keeper sized 19" Seatrout then Louis rounded out an Amelia Island Back Country Slam by  catching a nice 19" Flounder. We continued to fish the bank and at one time all three anglers had a Red in the boat - Triple Reds! We later headed in, counting it as another great day to be out on Amelia Island waters!

I was impressed by fishermen using non destructive fishing gear or equipment.
