Another beautiful morning and a great fishing day! I met Aaron Perlstein and his day Mitchell down at Big Talbot Island Park and we headed up to the Horsehead area to fish the first of an outgoing tide. We had exactly (9) shrimp...and a bait well full of mud minnows and we began fishing with the float rigs. It wasn't long before Aaron had a hookup and he soon landed a thrashing keeper sized Seatrout. What a great way to start a fishing trip! Shortly after that he had another hookup but this fish buried deep then boiled at the grass line - a nice Redfish! Aaron played the fish patiently and after a good battle, landed a slot sized 22" Redfish! We fished the bank for a while and when we came to a large creek mouth Mitchell switched to a jig and minnow and it may have been his first cast - BOOM! Fish on! He fought the fish from bow to stern and around the engine and eventually landed another big keeper sized Seatrout.! We worked the bank a second time with jigs and picked up a couple of more keeper Trout then another feisty Redfish. Our 2nd stop was at Twin Creeks over in the Nassau River and found a nice Ladyfish to battle with. We then made a run over to Broward Island fished the deep river bottom and BOOM! Both anglers had a hookup - a Double! Mitchell boated a nice feisty Redfish and Aaron landed another keeper sized Seatrout. After Mitchell fought and released another Ladyfish, we called it a day, another great one to be fishing Amelia Island waters!
