I had the opportunity to fish with Todd Sack as he treated his son, David to a fishing trip. David will be graduating soon and heading off to college so it was a great time to get out on the water. The weather cooperated fully as we experienced a nice sunny day with a light breeze - to begin with. I haven't been to the Jolley River in a while so we headed up and started tossing the jig and shrimp combo on the last of an outgoing tide. David hooked up first with a nice trout and then Todd joined in with an
other. We made a few stops up the Jolley and they caught a few more trout. David even reeled in what looked to be something from prehistoric times - a 34" gar of some sort. It really reeked! The wind picked up out of the northeast so we ran to the Tiger Islands and sure enough, out of the wind. Todd ended the day by catching a keeper sized flounder. We did have a neighbor who caught their only fish, but what appeared to be a 22" fat trout, fishing deep on the bottom. We toured Cumberland Island to see a herd of wild horses, crossed to historic Fort Clinch, and made it back to the dock in time wrap up the day. Good luck David up at school!
