We Weathered The Storm

After a week of nasty weather as tropical storm Eta crept thru we were finally able to get out today here at Amelia Island. I fished with Rick Cardinal and his son Zac and met them up at the Dee Dee Bartels Park boat ramp. Although we had some skies that were still overcast,  the high winds had dissipated to almost nothing. We eased over to outside of Tiger Island and set up fishing float rigs and live shrimp.  Although we had a bite here and there, we had no takers so we moved across the creek and continued our search. Zac put a handful of bait stealers in the boat  but that was it so we moved on.

After a brief stop in Bell River we made the run over to Lanceford Creek. Rick was drifting a minnow with the current and let his bait drift up next to a small grass patch and BOOM! He had a hookup! Rick played it patiently to the boat and landed a nice Slot Redfish. We moved on around to Soap Creek, stuck with the float rigs, and picked up a couple of hungry Seatrout and a couple of feisty Redfish.

We then made a long run around to and up the Bell River to fish some docks with jigs.  Zac got hot and picked up a couple of Trout, then Rick reeled in a feisty Red and a Mangrove Snapper. But it was Zac who hooked up with the big one. He was fishing fairly deep when he felt a "bump" and set the hook -Fish On! Zac worked it to the boat expertly and landed a nice  22" Slot Redfish.

 After a brief stop in Jolley we called it a day, another great one to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
