Good Variety Good Fish at Amelia Island

 Although it was a bit overcast this morning, it made for a great day of fishing with only a slight breeze blowing. I had met Jonathan Valdez and his father-in-law Dan out at the Goffinsville Park on an "almost low" tide -it was still going out, so we went down a ways and fished between two docks with jigs and live shrimp. Both anglers had a "bump" now and then but it was Jonathan who "knocked the skunk off" when he hooked up and battle a large Catfish to the net. We had a Salt Marsh Mink sighting there, too. 



We then ran down to Broward Island and set up to fish the still outgoing tide, under the watchful eye of a Bald Eagle. Both anglers were getting good casts to the exposed drop off and when we bot between two logs the action commenced. Dan hooked up  and when his drag began to rip we knew it had a bit of size. While he was battling that, Jonathan hooked up and brought to the net a feisty Black Drum. Dan patiently played his fish and soon landed a Slot Sized Redfish. And shortly after that he caught a keeper sized Seatrout.

After fishing Broward we made our way back to Seymore's Pointe, then down to Spanish Drop where the duo tangled with high flying Ladyfish and Jack Crevalle. Then Jonathan, after just switching to a float rig and live shrimp, had his float disappear. He tightened up the line, lifted his rod and let the hook set and Fish On! Jonathan expertly brought it to the net and landed the feisty Redfish.  As we headed back to the dock we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
