Triple Ouch and a Comeback

 I fished south today, meeting Sean Patwell down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early and a with a plan to
catch the first of an incoming tide we made a long run up the Nassau River to our first spot.  I think it was the first cast when we had a Strong hookup - this fish was digging deep and ripping drag with no intention of coming to the boat, and it didn't - it thru the hook! Dang it. We went back to the same spot and within minutes the same thing happened - Big bite, strong run, drag ripping, digging deep, and the hook thrown again!  Back to the same spot we went and ANOTHER big bite. This one dug deep and headed for a nearby obstruction. About when the line lined up, BAP! Fish Off! dang it times three!

But we kept fishing and picked up a couple of feisty Redfish from that same spot, then moved down the way. fished for a bit, then moved on. After making our way down the river and up a large creek we fished some docks with the jigs. Sean picked up a feisty Red right off, then he hooked up and landed a keeper sized Seatrout.  We caught one more Red along that stretch and move on.

Back down the river and up a creek, we worked a bank slowly. Sean had made an excellent cast up to the bank and caught another smaller Red, then went back to the same area and hooked up with a bigger fish. He played it perfect and soon landed a Slot Redfish. 

It was a beautiful day and we  had managed to stay out of the wind except when running so when we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
