Short Stories

 


I'm slammed with trips right now so I've got to get to bed!  I fished with Greg and Dannie Fitzgerald who also had along Greg's dad Guy and long time friend Ginny. I meet them up at the Dee Dee Bartels Park and we made our first stop around at Tyger Island, fishing a tide that had been coming in for about 2 hours. Pitching jigs and live shrimp, Dannie found a good  bite, hooked it up, and landed a nice Slot Sized Redfish. 


We fished some docks over at Lanceford Creek where Greg dug a nice keeper sized Sheepshead out of the oyster then Dannie picked up a keeper sized Whiting. After fishing a few docks there we moved on. The tide had gotten up so we began drifting float rigs with live shrimp up near the marsh grass. We fished Soap Creek, back down Lanceford and over in the Bell but had no real takers -just nibbles here and there. As a rain storm rolled in, we called it a day and headed back to the boat ramp. It was still a great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
