From 10 to 20

We had a beautiful morning today when I met Scott and Sandy Winstead down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. The forecast called for 12mph winds (fishable) increasing to 18-20 as the morning wore on (not very fishable). But we wanted to get some fishing in so we headed up the Nassau River and around to Broward Island and set up with jigs and live shrimp on the first of an incoming tide. We had a good bite here and there but no takers, moved down a bit, found some logs to hang on, then we moved even further down. Here, Scott "knocked the skunk off" with a nice Flounder catch. 

The wind was picking up so we came back to the shelter of Nassauville and fished a grassy point with float rigs. We were out of the wind but the fish weren't cooperating. After cruising by Goffinsville Park we got in between two docks and went back to the jigs and this did the trick. Scott put a couple of keeper sized Mangrove Snapper in the boat (all fish caught today were released), then Sandy got in on the action and landed a few of her on. 

They were biting so well Scott switched to a 8w fly rod that I had brought along loaded with a sinking tip and  a weighted Shrimp fly. He was getting excellent casts to the same spots we were getting the fish on live shrimp and had a couple of "takes' but they spit the artificial quickly. But it was fun! After fishing  one more spot up the way we made a run thru Horsehead, down along the intercoastal and back to the boat ramp and counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
