Trout Time?

 Jason Ash was able to get away and get in some backcountry fishing here at Amelia Island today. I methim down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp before the sun came up and we headed up the intercoastal, thru the Back River and around to the mouth of Pumpkin Hill where we set up with float rigs and live shrimp. Jason drifted his rig close  to the grass on the very last of an incoming tide and got a bunch of nibbles but no takers and within a few minutes, the tide turned. We moved around the corner and that did the trick. Jason "went long" with a drift and it paid off with a keeper sized Seatrout catch. We worked along that bank and caught a few Trout, a feisty Jack Crevalle and two nasty Gar Fish!

We fished down at Broward Island, switching to jigs and minnows and caught a small Flounder then a Stingray.


After a short run back down the Nassau we made a stop at a marsh run out and continued with the jigs and  minnows and that was the ticket. We found that we could pitch up to the bank, let the outgoing current take our bait down the river bottom, wait for the "bump" and a short hookset would produce a Seatrout. We added a handful of keeper sized Trout to the catch. We added a Mangrove Snapper somewhere in there, too.

After moving up the  bank we fished a shell bed that dropped off deep. I thought we'd get the bite up close but it was out in deeper water where Jason hooked up and landed a feisty Redfish, this one with Seven Spots. We had an outstandingly beautiful morning and as we headed in we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
