Long Snouted Fish

 We wrapped the week up yesterday, fishing with Jag Gholson and his longtime friend David after I had
met them up at the Dee Dee Bartels Park boat ramp. We had a tide that had been coming in for a few hours so we headed up and over to the Jolley River and turned into the current and fished the "bank". I could see right off that these anglers could fish as they were making excellent casts to the flooding marsh grass. It took a stretch but as we neared the mouth they began to get bites and hooked up with a handful of Seatrout. 

Our next stop was up at Snook Creek, fishing the bank. We had nibbles, picked up a couple of bait stealers, and moved on. After buzzing back to Tyger, thru the basin, and around to Bell River we set up alongside a flooding point and began to drift our float
rigs and live shrimp.  They caught a Trout or two then Jag had something promising - big and pulling deep. We were all speculating on what it was when he brought to the surface a 3' Gar Fish, OUCH!

We then ran over to Lanceford Creek, fished the mouth of a marsh drainage, had no luck, then continued on up and into Soap Creek where we worked a bank thoroughly. Not much happening, so we ran further up Lanceford, fished a grassy Island, had some nibbles, and continued on.

Back on the outside of Tyger to fish the first of an outgoing tide and that paid off. Jag was drifting long out of the stern and had a good bite, a hookup, and landed a nice keeper sized Seatrout. The duo played cat and mouse with Needlefish then Jag had the final nice fish of the day, a feisty Redfish.

We had had to deal with baitstealing Pinfish, Perch, Catfish, Garfish, and Needlefish but we had a bit of action here and there and it was a beautiful day so as we headed in we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
