Katie Teaching Lessons

John Crowley had set up a two boat fishing trip this morning with his workmates and The Anglers Mark hosted John and his friends Katie and Bill.  We headed up to fish the outside of Tiger Island on the last couple of hours of an incoming tide.  The anglers were tossing live shrimp and mud minnows under floats up near the flooded grass, but only had a couple of nibbles.  We then moved around closer to the mouth of Tiger Basin and set up outside of a creek run  out as the tide turned and started out.  Katie "got the skunk off" by landing a nice hungry Seatrout.and added another shortly afterwards. We ran around behind Tiger, fished the logs briefly, then headed up to Jolley River to fish the oysters at Snook Creek, but to no avail.  Our next stop was at Jolley Bank and this did the trick with Katie landing three more Seatrout, with two being of keeper size.  Bothe Bill and John had tangled with the Ladyfish and eventually Bill was able to keep one on the hook and land the acrobatic fish.  It was a beautiful morning and a great one to be fishing out on Amelia Island waters.
