I fished Friday morning with Dennis Adams, his son-in-law Daniel, and Daniel's dad Dan, meeting them up at the Dee Dee Bartels Park boat ramp and boy what a pretty morning we had! Sunshine, clear skies, and just a very little breeze. So I made the first run up to the Jolley River where we turned into the incoming current and fished float rigs with live shrimp. These three anglers were getting excellent casts up to the flooding marsh grass, but we had no takers.
We ran further up the river and fished a bank and in just a few minutes Dan had a strong take. He reeled down, lifted the rod and let the circle hook set and Fish On! Dan worked it tot he boat expertly and landed a nice feisty Redfish. And just a minute later Dennis went to the same spot and BAM! He had a strong hookup too. He brought it n and released it right at the boat!
The tide was really high and almost to the to so we came back to Tyger, ran thru ad around to the Bell, and set up on a point to drift the floats, but had no bites. Our next stop was over at Soap Creek and here we had a some good action. We moved up and down the bank, picking up a Trout here and there, then we found one spot that seemed to hold them. All three anglers caught and landed Seatrout.
Our final stop was over at some docks at Lanceford and here Dennis picked up a nice sized Whiting. We had had some mild temperatures, some great sunshine and as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
