I got to fish again with the Moore family again yesterday - Daniel and Donna and their kids Ansley and Landon. This time we mixed it up, launching from the Atlantic Seafood dock down at the City marina and with picture perfect weather, headed up Lanceford Creek to fish some dock pilings on the first of an outgoing tide. The anglers were getting Croaker bites when Landon and Daniel finally hooked up, boating a nice feisty Redfish. A little later Daniel had a strong bite and this fish was ready for a fight! But he and Landon were up to the task and after a good battle, landed a big 18" Black "puppy" Drum! We then made a run around to Tiger Island and here Ansley got in on the action, catching a hard fighting Redfish and then a fat keeper sized Seatrout. Landon followed it by outsmarting the sneaky Sheepshead. The Moore family now had an Amelia Island Grande Slam of Redfish, Drum, Seatrout and Sheepshead. We made a run up into Jolley River, sparred with the Croaker, then Daniel's patience paid off when he boated one more feisty Redfish. With that, we called it a day, another great one to be fishing Amelia Island waters!
