Nice Breeze and Pleasant Fishing

 I kicked off the week with a trip out of the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp after meeting Chanterelle and John Damer and their daughter Ava early this morning. We eased out of Eagans Creek then made our way up and around to the Jolley River where we made our first stop at Tyger Cut with plans to drift float rigs and live shrimp and mud minnows on a tide that still had about an hour and a half of coming in.  Ava kicked things off with the hot fishing rod - she hooked up and brought to the net a fine Croaker, then she battled a hungry Seatrout to the boat. John hooked and landed a Trout while we there, and we had a few more good bites before we moved on. After dropping back to Jolley "bank" and working it pretty good- we had another Trout and a hard fighting Jack Crevalle, then John had a bite - it bumped is bait, then came back and BAM! big fish on! The drag was ripping and the big fish put up a good fight - it had John scrambling from stern to bow and back to stern - the ladies cleared the deck and the fight settled in for a tug of war, which John eventually won when he landed a big 4' Bonnethead Shark for photograph and release.

Back at the outside of Tyger we fished the first of an outgoing tide with the float rigs, had some nibbles, but no takers then we crossed over the creek and worked that bank. Again, just a few nibbles, but then John had a good hookup - he expertly played it the net and landed a hefty keeper sized Flounder.  We moved back up the island and fished a large drainage and here all three anglers got in on the action. Chanterelle hooked and landed a feisty Jack Crevalle and a hungry Seatrout - Ava put another Trout in the boat, then John added another keeper sized Flounder to the box. We'd had a nice breeze all day, there had been some action here and there, so as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
