What A Wrap Up

 I fished today again with Andy and Jennifer Aberle, meeting them out at their home and riding along in their Pathfinder to try and find some fish! We stopped real close by and tossed float rigs with live shrimp to a large outflow on a high and outgoing tide but I was somewhat surprised to see hardly any current flowing -we had no luck.

We then ran thru Horsehead and over to Pompano Point and set up again with the floats and here we did have a bit of current and that paid off with a couple of  Seatrout catches. Continuing on up the intracoastal we made as stop and fished some structure with jigs and live shrimp. There were a bunch of baitstealers and only one Trout. After making the run up into behind Piney Island we set up current from some dock pilings and pitched to them, but to no avail. I was beginning to worry. 



Our next stop, further up the Intracoastal paid off, though. Jennifer was getting excellent casts up into some dock pilings and fishing it good - Andy was fishing off the outside. Jennifer had the first hookup, she played it perfectly and brought to the net a nice keeper sized Seatrout. Meanwhile, Andy had a strong bite out deep. It was ripping drag and in danger of getting tangled in the pilings. Andy worked the boat out, kept the pressure on the fish, then fought it to the net, a big 20" Black "puppy" Drum. 

After getting the fish measured, photographed and in the box, Andy went back to the same spot and BAM! Big Fish On!  I was thinking we were in a Black Drum "honey hole" but when this fish came to the surface we saw it was a large Slot Redfish. Andy played it patiently and landed it. He went back to the same spot and had another strong hookup -another Slot Red - they had their limit! 

We fished down a dock or two, then came back to the "hot spot" where Jennifer got in on the Big Fish action. She had made a great cast, fished it slow, and had the hookup. Jennifer fought the fish to the surface and the net - another Slot Red which we photographed and released. We had to hit 5 spots but the final one paid off so as we headed back to their dock we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
