A Menagerie of Fish

 | By Seamus on 4/21/2025 5:03:00 PM | Views (27)

 Menagerie: A collection of wild animals kept in captivity. Yes, they were wild animals (fish), but they
weren't in captivity - we caught them wild. Maybe a Conglomeration? Conglomeration: a number of different things, parts, or items that are grouped together; collection. There were a bunch of different things (fish),  but they were alive and well. Maybe a smorgasbord?  Smorgasbord: a wide range of something; a variety. 

We caught a bunch of different species -a menagerie, a conglomeration, a smorgasboard when I fished this morning with Allen Webb. We met early up at Old Town Bait and Tackle - there was very little wind and the bugs were out a bit as we eased out of Eagans Creek and made our way over to Soap Creek to try our hand at some top water lure tossing. Allen was getting good casts and good action but we had no takers. We then eased further down Lanceford and fished some dock pilings with jigs and live shrimp with just an hour or so of an outgoing tide left and here we boated a feisty Sting Ray and a small Sea Bass.

After a long run up the Bell River and sticking with the jigs, fishing deep, Allen hooked up and landed a hungry Seatrout. On further around and into the Jolley we fished some exposed oysters and here Allen landed a keeper sized Seatrout, then a small Bonnethead, then a larger Bonnethead Shark. We bumped over to the MOA and worked it pretty good. A good bite had us all excited when it dug deep but it turned out to be a mang8y old Catfish. We fished the Tyger logs for a bit, to no avail, then wrapped things up back at the Jolley, tossing a float rig and live shrimp. .We had a beautiful day out on the water, had some drag ripping action with the Shark and had a Trout sandwich 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.
