Trout King


I fished this afternoon with Brent Malcolm and his son Willie out of the Atlantic Seafood launch.  We headed up Lanceford Creek to fish some dock pilings on the outgoing tide.  We hadn't been fishing long (his third cast) when Willie hooked up and played a nice Seatrout to the net!  Brent followed that up with a flurry of fish catching, landing three nice Redfish one after the other.  When the bite slowed we made a run around to Bell River to fish some more docks and again, Willie started it off by catching another Seatrout.  From then on we caught a good mess of fish - a handful of Seatrout and a big handful of Sheepshead which gave the anglers an Amelia Island Back Country Slam for the day.  Willie also added a fat Catfish!  We fished Jolley River oyster beds  and although the tide was right, the weather was right, we had no real bites.  But it was a great day to be out on the water and we had some good catches for the day!
