Scott and Jacquelyn O'Melia , along with their kids Palmer, Scottie, and Lady, were visiting Amelia Island again and took in an Amelia Island backcountry fishing trip on
The Anglers Mark today. We headed out on a beautiful, sunny morning, but with stiff breeze. On the way to our first spot on Lanceford Creek, we saw Dolphin rolling in the water and soon after anchoring Palmer spotted an awesome Bald Eagle cruising the shoreline. We fished the docks of Lanceford but had very few bites so we headed up to Jolley River to fish the oyster banks. We saw an Osprey looking for fish like we were! 5 year olds Scottie and Lady got to know the live shrimp real well and settled in to enjoy one of their first fishing trips. Fishing behind Tiger Island we finally hooked up with a good bite and Palmer battled in a feisty Redfish. While fishing Tiger we were treated to a sighting of a Sea Otter scampering along the shoreline. As we left Tiger, we crossed over to Cumberland to view a small herd of wild horses, then made our way back to the marina, counting it as another great day to be out on Amelia Island waters!
