Slick As Ice

 That's how the water was today, not a ripple. And a whole lot of sunshine after the sun got up. I had met
Steve Locke and his fishing buddy Tony out at Goffinsville Park and after making a quick run down the Nassau we set up at Twin Creeks to fish float rigs with live shrimp on a tide that still had a couple of hours of coming in to do. Nibbles. That's all we got! Crazy.  So we made a run back up the Nassau to Pumpkin Hill and that did the trick. The duo almost immediately began to get bites and it was Steve who "knocked the skunk off"  - he had a strong bite  and it was ripping a bit of drag - Steve played it patiently and soon brought to the net a nice 17" Black "puppy" Drum. Tony battled a nice Jack to the boat and we had a few other bites. We then moved  up to a point and fished down the other side and like yesterday, this was the ticket. They caught a good handful of Seatrout, most of them right at 14", but Tony did hookup and land a keeper sized Weakfish. Steve put a nice keeper sized Whiting in the box, and a keeper Seatrout, so we had a good "mess" going. 

We moved down the river and fished around a grassy island where Steve battled a big Bonnethead Shark to the boat, then Tony hooked up and when his drag started ripping we knew it was a nice fish. He played it perfectly and brought to the net a nice 21" 10-Spot Redfish. This fish probably would have earned money in this weekend's AIGA Inshore Classic (CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFO). They added another big 18" Seatrout to round out their "fish fry".

We fished back down the Nassau at Spanish Drop, hooked up with a couple of big fish, one turned out to be another Bonnethead, then we called it a day. The wind never did pick up and as we headed back to ther ramp on water slick as ice, we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
