Young Guns Rule The Day

 We were back down south today fishing out of Sawpit Creek boat ramp - I met Steve Locke, his son
Justin, and his grandsons Elliot and Landon early. We made a good run up the intracoastal, up Middle River and around to Pumpkin Hill where we set up with float rigs and live shrimp and mud minnows, drifting the flooded marsh grass on an incoming tide. Landon, the youngest angler on the boat at 6+years, quickly hooked and landed a feisty Jack Crevalle. Then his grandad had a strong bite and that drag was ripping! The big fish went deep and I thought for sure we had him, but it then made it's way back to the submerged oysters shell and BAP! Fish Off! Ouch! But Landon made up for it - he was just about to reel in when he had a "take" and it was "Fish On"!  Landon fought the big fish expertly and after a good battle landed a nice Slot Redfish. We fished a couple of spots in the area then made a move.

Our next stop was back thru Horsehead and over to Poteat Point where we stuck with the float rigs. We had a few good bites but no takers so we moved back over to Jackstaff and switched to jigs and the shrimp and minnows. Elliot was fishing the minnows and had a strong bite and he hooked it up. This fish was no match for Elliot - he worked it to the net to land a hungry Catfish. Elliot had the "hot" rod for now and he took advantage of it - he went back to his sweet spot and it paid off when he had that familiar "thump". After setting the hook, he played it patiently to the net and landed a nice Flounder.


Back thru Horsehead we went and down the Nassau where we fished a few shell beds taht were beginnign to show. Again, it was Elliot that had the hookup over here and it paid off when he landed another Flounder. These young guys had "skunked" their father and grandfather - we'd had great weather, the boys had caught some fish, so as we headed back to the rampwe counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
