We Thought Flounder Were the Highlight

 I fished with the Williams family today, John and Mary Margaret and their young kids Hadden and Ruth, meeting them down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early this morning. We ran up the intercoastal and dipped into Jackstaff and began fishing the bank with jigs and live shrimp on a tide that still had a couple of more hours to hit bottom.  Trolling along eh bank, the anglers were making excellent casts, working the bottom, and even though we were seeing bait getting busted along the shore, we had no bites.

We buzzed thru Horsehead and headed back east to Spanish Drop and set up parallel to the bank. We had only fished a few minutes when John had a BUMP, and fish on!  He brought it patiently to the net and landed a nice 17" keeper sized Flounder. We worked that bank then moved up to another marsh runout. Fishing that, BUMP, and John had another keeper sized Flounder. We moved up to another marsh runout and, BUMP, John put another keeper Flounder in the boat.  He added one more that was just undersized, then caught a Seatrout before we moved on. 


Our next stop was at some docks in Nassauville, pitching to the pilings. Both Ruth and Hadden had bites, then after Mary Margaret had pitched up between some pilings, BAM, Big Fish On! Mary Margarte was cranking and the fish was digging deep , trying to get to the pilings but Mary Margaret kept the pressure on, worked it out to safety, then patiently played it to the net and landed a big 25.25" Slot Redfish, boy what a fish. We also put a keeper sized Mangrove Snapper in the boat. 

After running down to Broward Island with just minutes to spare, and trying to avoid a mutiny from the younger anglers, we fished deep and had one strong bite, a fight, and then the fish found the submerged tree and BAP! Fish Off. But we had a beautiful day and caught some nice fish so we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida
