Amelia Island Back Country Slam

The Alfrey's were back in town this week - Randy and  his sons Adam and Jason - and took in an Amelia Island back country fishing trip on The Anglers Mark today.  The normal weather pattern prevailed, beautiful mornings with little wind, few clouds and calm waters.  We left the Atlantic Seafood dock at 7am, headed north and made our first stop behind Tiger Island to fish the logs on the last of an outgoing tide.  The bite started slow but picked up steam as the anglers began to land fish.  Both Adam and Jason landed feisty Redfish while Randy added a hungry Seatrout.  They picked up some Snapper and Croaker then
Jason picked up a nice Flounder to round out the trios Amelia Island Back Country Slam.  We had a couple of more feisty Redfish and a Blue then headed up to fish an oyster lined bank in the Jolley River.  The beautiful weather held as the sun came up and the anglers added a few more Redfish, had a hookup with a Ladyfish, and hauled in a couple of more Croaker. We hit a couple of more spots then headed in, counting it as another great day to be out on Amelia Island waters!
