It Wasn't Meant To Be

 ...a combined report from Friday May 1st and today, May 5th, with the 60th Annual Shrimp Fest squeezed
in between! Friday I fished with Chris Pyle and his friends Byron and Nick, meeting them down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. We hit a number of spots fishing mostly floats and picked up Catfish, Ladyfish, Seatrout and Nick got his first Redfish. Chris battled a large Jack Crevalle that took him around the boat - he played it patiently to the net for photograph and release.



Today I fished with Bob and Jana Grimm, meeting them up at Old Town Bait and Tackle. We motored out of Eagans and made a run over to Lanceford Creek. Jana had a bit of action catching a small Black Sea Bass and a Toad fish but then she hooked up with something big. It wrapped almost immediately but Jana stayed patient and worked it out. We pulled the boat out into deeper water and the battle continued Jana fought it like a pro, letting it run, working it in, letting it run and she said she could feel it tiring, then BIP - the fish was off! It didn't break, it just came off. OUCH!


We hit a good number of other spots, fishing jigs and live shrimp most of the time and again - Toad Fish, Ladyfish, and Catfish. Jana did outsmart and hookup and land a keeper sized Sheepshead, photographed and released. Both days were beautiful, we had just a big of action, but heading back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
