Our next stop was down at Broward Island, still pitching jigs. Our first try was unsuccessful but we moved down the island a bit and this paid off. Eddie said he had a "nibble, nibble, nibble, then when he set the hook, BAM! Big fish on! Eddie fought it a good while before I remembered to turn the video camera on. He played it patiently, deep run after deep run, and eventually wore the big Redfish out - he landed it, measured at 30.75" - a new standard for the 2021 Anglers Mark Bragging Rights Tournament!
We continued to fish, picked up a small Seatrout, then headed back to Nassauville. The tide was up and the wind was coming with it! But we did find a nice fat Weakfish to add to the box. Our final stop was around at Seymore's again and here Eddie wrapped things up with a feisty Redfish catch - a great way to end a good day of fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
