It Got Better Later

 You have to say that we're having the best fishing weather this week that we've had in a long time. Today was no exception - clear skies, sun shining, no wind, but just  slight breeze, and even a bit cool as we made that first run. I had met Adam Mizell, his son Whitt and his father-in-law John Ayers down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early and we made the long run up the Nassau to take advantage of a first of an incoming tide at Broward Island -my favorite tide to fish Broward. But I would have "lost a dollar" if I had bet on this spot. All three anglers were making excellent casts and we worked the bank thoroughly, but had no real bites. I couldn't believe it! 

We came back to Seymore's Pointe and fished some dock pilings where we played with some Mangrove Snapper for a bit. Moving down the Nassau to Spanish Drop, we fished some flooding shell banks with jigs and shrimp and here the bite began to pick up. Whitt picked up a nice Flounder then he did battle with what I believe to have been a Shark, but it found its way around a crab buoy and eventually broke off. 

After moving back up the Nassau and turning into the current, we again fished some flooded banks and again, we had some action. John started it off by hooking up and landing a keeper sized Seatrout, then they caught a Whiting, and a couple of small Jack Crevalle. Then John and grandson Whitt teamed up to tame a 4' Bonnethead Shark.

We fished some rocks at Nassauville with float rigs and outsmarted a few Mangrove Snapper, a couple which were of keeper size. Then we wrapped things up down the way at another couple of docks. Adam got on roll and pulled another Flounder out, then a few keeper sized Mangroves, then John hooked up an landed a nice 17.25" Flounder. The day had started out really slow but we found some action later so as we headed back to the dock we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
