I fished with the Gandler family today, Brian and Laura and their adult sons Mike and Bill, meeting them down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early. There wasn't a whole lot of breeze but the bugs weren't too bad as we made our first stop at Spanish Drop on the Nassau. The oysters were about half showing so we went with float rigs and live shrimp, tossed up near the bank. We could see bait and fish working the bank and it was only a matter of time before Brian had a hookup and, Fish On! He played it perfectly and patiently worked it to the net to land a nice 20" Slot sized Redfish.
Mike had switched out to a jig and was fishing out the stern and he had a hookup. He was getting a good pull but he stayed with it and soon landed a feisty Bluefish. Up front, Bill had a hookup - another nice fish. We worked it to the boat and landed another 20+" Redfish.
We later fished the docks at Seymores, then we motored down to Broward where Brian caught a hungry Seatrout. We fished back at Nassauville, then made a tour thru Horsehead to wrap up another great day of fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
