As we worked along we weren't getting many bites at all but Doyle had put a good cast up near some exposed oysters. We both saw his float dip, then pop up. Then it dipped again and stayed under and as Doyle tightened up the line, Big Fish On! I didn't realize how big it was - it battled up near the bank for a bit then boiled and ran out to deeper water and the fight was on.
After running back to Seymore's Pointe we fished a large outflow, sticking with the floats, but had no luck. We then ran down to Spanish Drop and here the action picked up. Kevin and Doyle were on the stern and drifting floats and caught a good handful of Seatrout, a couple of which were of keeper size. Doyle added a small Flounder to round out his Amelia Island Back Country Slam of Redfish, Seatrout and Flounder. Then Jake had a hookup, played it perfectly, and landed a nice Trout.
We worked along that bank, hitting 2-3 spots, found one Trout on a jig and shrimp, then fished the docks back at Seymore as the tide had drop. But the sun was up, the tide was hitting bottom, so we called it a day, another great one to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida
