Fish at Every Spot

We fished five different spots today and didn't get skunked at a one of them!  I had met Paul and Laura Amos down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early this morning and boy was it a pretty one! Not a cloud in the sky, only slightly cool, and just a slight breeze. We headed up the Nassau River and made the longest run of the morning, up to Pumpkin Hill and found a stretch of exposed oysters to work with jigs and live shrimp and minnows. Paul was on the bow and Laura was on the stern and it didn't take long for them to hookup and land some Redfish. Paul put a feisty fish in the boat to knock the skunk off
then both he and Laura tangled with and landed a Slot sized fish of their own. We added a couple of more Reds then we moved on to Broward Island.

Soon to be renamed Gnat Island, Browed looked really good as worked the logs with jigs but the sand gnats were almost unbearable. But almost simultaneously, both Paul and Laura hooked up with a couple of hungry Seatrout. After both Paul and I inhaled sand gnats, we decided to move on and let them have the island.

Our next stop was back at some docks at Seymore's Pointe. Paul started it off with feisty Black "puppy" Drum catch then he and Laura really got into some Redfish. Most of them were right at 16-17" but they were fun to catch and gave us a good amount of action.

We then ran down Spanish Drop, worked the bank with float rigs, and caught another feisty Redfish. Our final stop, after running thru Horsehead, was at the mouth of Jackstaff and here Paul put one more Seatrout in the boat before we called it a day, another great one to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
