Redfish On Fire

 I had a couple of days earlier this week where we struggled to get some fish so I really needed this morning! I had met Brad G. and his son Jake up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle this morning - it was fairly cool, but not as cold as the past few days. But the sun was out and we had almost no wind. We made our way over to Eagans Creek and set up to fish some dock pilings on the first of an incoming tide and from almost the first cast it was, Fish On! Both of these anglers stayed busy catching Redfish ranging from 16" up to just over the Slot of 18". They guestimated they caught at least 30 fish!   We stayed there for about 2 hours, then finally made a move. Our next stop was over at Soap Creek where we drifted float rigs shallow on a higher incoming tide but we didn't get a nibble. We wrapped up the day fishing over behind Tyger Island, fishing deep, and again, to no avail. We had a good morning but as we headed in we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
