Beautiful Day of Fishing

Boy what a beautiful day we had fishing on Amelia Island's waters!   I had met Chris Kimbrell and his friends Mike and Cassidy down at the Atlantic Seafood dock and we pointed The Anglers Mark nortah to Tiger Island.  There was just a slight breeze but the water was calm as we pulled up to the downed logs.  The anglers got busy casting jigs and shrimp to the shoreline and were soon getting bites.  They landed a number of rather large Croaker and added some fat Snapper to the catch.  Mike had a good fight with a feisty Redfish and before we left the spot Cassidy landed a keeper sized Flounder.  We moved to the outside of Tiger and broke out the float rigs and some live shrimp.  We had a really good flurry of bites and the anglers caught some hungry Seatrout, did battle with some Ladyfish, and then Chrisis landed a feisty Black "Puppy" Drum.  We ran up to the Jolley River and picked up a couple of more Trout and Chris reeled in another Flounder.  Our last stop was to the outside of Tiger again where they had a few more bites and then Mike had a big bite and break off as we were preparing to leave.  That wrapped up another great day to be out on Amelia Island waters!
