Fishing Lure

 

We lucked out with the weather this morning - the forecast had changed by the time we got on the water and for the most part, we had clear skies and low winds. We did have two rainbows that graced us with their presence! I had met Pete Nolan hand his high school fishing buddies Sam and Steve down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp and we ran up the intercoastal, then into Back River and around to the Nassau to set up fishing an edge at Pumpkin Hill. We almost immediately began to get bites - a good handful of small but hungry Seatrout, and also a couple of Bluefish. 

We worked around the corner and fished a grass patch and here Pete put a keeper sized Trout in the boat and Sam tangled with a Bonnethead Shark. 

After making the run around to Seymore's Pointe we set up at a large drainage and drifted floats on the first of an outgoing tide, and again, some small Trout, and a couple Blues.  After running thru Horesehead and around to Pompano Point we again got a few Trout.

Our last stop was fishing a bank along Jackstaff with jigs and shrimp and minnows and again...more Trout! Sam added a nice Whiting to the box before we called it a day and as we headed back to the ramp, we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
