Action at Most Spots

Brook Benge brought along two of his fishing buddies - Tommy and Roger, when I met them out at the Amelia Island Marina early this morning. We eased down the canal and made a short trip over to some structure to try our luck with some jigs and mud minnows on the first of an incoming tide. The conditions were good, it wasn't "on fire" but Tommy did "knock the skunk off" with a Flounder catch. 




We then ran down the intracoastal, took the shortcut thru Sailboat Cut and went around to Jackstaff, turned into the current and fished the "bank".  All three anglers were making excellent casts (all day long) and it paid off for Brook - he hooked up and expertly landed a hard fighting Jack Crevalle then a feisty Redfish. After running thru Horsehead we made a short stop at a dock and Seymore's Pointe and tossed to the pilings. Here the trio caught and landed a fairly nice sized Sea Bass (for the backwater), and then a Toad Fish, then Tommy had a strong hookup. This fish was ripping drag and digging towards teh pilings. Tommy worked him out then the big fish made a dash to the pilings and that was "all she wrote". After it broke off we checked the leader and it was rougher than 80 grit sandpaper!

Moving down the Nassau to Spanish Drop, we worked that bank with the jigs. We caught a couple or three small but fun to catch Flounder, another Jack or two, a Catfish, and then Tommy again had a big fish on. This one had taken the bait and swam out with the current. When Tommy tightened up he realized he had a fish on and boy what a fish! When it realized it was hooked the battle was joined - it took Tommy to the stern and around the engine then back towards the bank, ripping drag as it went. He worked it in slowly, let it run, worked it in, let it run, then finally brought to the net a bulky 26" Redfish. Boy what a fish!

We drifted floats at Twin Creeks and picked up a hungry Seatrout, then made our way down to Pumpkin Hill where Brook wrapped things up with a Seatrout catch and another Jack Crevalle catch. We had a slight breeze all morning, sunshine, and had some good action here and there, so as we headed back to the Marina we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
