First and Last

 We had a beautiful day that greeted us when I met Dale Bullard, his daughter Autumn and son-in-law Jacob down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. We were a little worried about the wind that had been tormenting us for it seems the last few weeks, especially as the morning progress's, but not today.

After running up the intercoastal and dipping in to Flagstaff and then into a smaller creek we set up with float rigs and live shimp, tossed to the marsh grass on a high and outgoing tide. I think it was Autumn's first cast when her float disappeared with a vengeance, and, Fish ON! This fish went zipping across the water taking Autumn from stern to bow and from port to starboard and back to the stern. I was thinking "shark" but as Autumn worked it to the boat I realized that it surely wasn't a shark. Autumn played it patiently and eventually landed a big Jack Crevalle, knocking the skunk off the boat early and kicking off a good day of fishing. 


We fished Jackstaff for a bit and had a couple of good bites, then ran through Horsehead and down to Spanish Drop and again eased along the bank. Jacob put another hard fighting Jack in the boat and they also landed a couple of hungry Seatrout. 

Our next stop was up at some docks at Nassauville and this paid off. Dale caught a huge Toad Fish right off then Jacob, fishing off the lucky stern, caught a keeper sized Seatrout. Dale and Jacob put a couple of keeper sized Mangrove Snapper in the boat then the trio teamed up to catch a good handful of smaller ones. Then it was Autumn's turn to wrap up the "big fish catches" when, after tossing a jig and big mud minnow, had a hookup. This fish was pulling good but Autumn kept the pressure on and soon landed a nice 19" Seatrout - she had the first and last big fish of the day!


After fishing down at Broward for a bit we headed in and counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
