Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
We went further up Jolley to Snook Creek and worked those exposed oysters, but no luck. After coming back down the Jolly to Tyger Cut we pulled up with some oysters still showing, but we went to float rigs and the live shrimp and that did the trick. Gregg found that he could toss it out a ways and let his float drift into shore and BAM! he'd have a hookup. Both he and Dannie caught and landed 8-10 hungry male Seatrout - they were grunting! But Dannie did have one strong hookup that had her drag ripping - the big fish ran up current and thrashed at the surface - I was thinking it was a Bonnethead until then, then it ripped drag coming back to the boat as Dannie took up slack. She played it perfectly and brought it to the boat where I could have gaffed it but we were releasing anyway, and eventually it broke off.
Our next stop was on the outside of Tyger where we went back to the jigs and worked the incoming current. Dannie was on the bow and hooked an landed a keeper sized Flounder, then she battle a Slot sized Redish and was doing a good job but the fish threw the hook! Ouch. Further up the bank she hooked and landed another, bigger, Flounder while Gregg hauled in one more hungry Seatrout. The wind had held off, we had caught about 15 fish, and had a couple in the box so as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
