Keep To Catch Ratio Pretty Good

 | By Seamus on 5/14/2025 6:49:00 PM | Views (4)

Another pretty morning, thankfully -clear skies, mild temperature and just a slight breeze. I met Pete Nolan and his fishing buddy Jeff down at Sawpit Creek and with a baitwell full of live shrimp we made the run up the intracoastal, made a veer into Jackstaff and turned into the incoming current with plans to fish the "bank" with jigs. The tide had been coming in about an hour and the oyster shell were still showing. The duo began to pitch their casts up behind a oyster hump and it paid off - they hooked up with a couple of Slot sized Redfish. We worked down the  bank and picked up a couple of more Reds and began to cull those that we had in the box.  Jeff added a keeper Whiting to the catch - our "keep to catch ratio" was pretty high!

We made a short run over to Poteat Point and Pete almost immediately caught a Seatrout under a float rig, but that was about it. After running thru Horsehead and down to Spanish Drop we stuck with the floats and picked up a small but feisty Jack Crevalle and a high flying Ladyfish. There was a long and ferocious battle with a Bonnethead Shark that was brought to the boat for a "leader touch" and release.

After a run down to Pumpkin Hill produced another Ladyfish catch we wrapped things over at Seymore's Pointe hoping for Seatrout, but dealt a Catfish catch. It had been a beautiful day, we had started out strong, had a few keeper 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.
