Wrapped Up The Week With Some Good Fishing

 | By Seamus on 10/23/2025 8:52:00 PM | Views (2)

 I've got a short week with prepping for the AIGA Inshore Classic - Captain's Meeting tomorrow 6pm at Old Town Bait and Tackle. We had a bit of wind to deal with today but my anglers, Mike and Sharon Conlon were up for the challenge with support from their pup Foxxy!  We met up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp and eased out of Eagans Creek to make our first run over to Lanceford Creek where we set up alongside a grassy/shell island with plans to drift float rigs and live shrimp (and a few mud minnows) on a tide that had been going out a couple of hours. Both anglers were getting good drifts and it paid off - Mike had his float disappear - he caught up the slack, lifted his rod and let the circle hook set and Fish On!  Mike played it expertly and after a good battle brought to the net a nice 23" Slot sized Redfish. Dinner in the box! Not a bad way to knock the skunk off, right? We kept at it and just a few minutes Mike had another hookup and....another Slot Red. They had their limit in the first 15 minutes of fishing. 

We fished around the corner at David's house, had no luck, then made along run back down Lanceford, uip the Bell and to some docks where we switched to jigs and shrimp, and minnows. It wasn't on fire but the duo caught a handful of Seatrout, one of which was of keeper size. Sharon got in on the action and caught a couple of those Trout. 

On around the corner, and down the Jolley River, we made another stop at a bend in the river with some exposed oyster shell and here we got busy catching fish!  They caught a handful of Redfish, three of which were in the Slot, a handful of Seatrout, two of which were of keeper size, and a nice keepable Weakfish. One of those Redfish Mike had hooked up and was bringing in and I realized that Sharon had a fish on too - we had a "double". I quickly netted Mike's Redfish, tossed it on the deck, then went to Sharon who we realized had a Big "Doormat" Flounder - It measured right at 20" - a great fish but unfortunately, out of season! After fishing the MOA for a bit on the last of an outgoing tide we made the run around Tyger and back to the dock, and counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Islnad, Florida.
