School Was Out

I fished south today, meeting Garland Clark and his son Kris down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early. We made the run up the intercoastal and made our way to Poteat Cut to set up tossing float rigs and live shrimp on a tide that had been going out for about two hours. The "flip of the coin" paid off - we had only been fishing a few minutes when Kris, fishing off the bow, hooked up and battled to the boat a large Seatrout. Garland tangled with a Shark or two and boated a feisty Redfish, then Kris, fishing in almost the same spot, had another big hookup and another big Trout brought to the boat. 

We fished up in Jackstaff with the floats for a bit - picked up a couple of nice Mangrove Snapper,  then made a run thru Horsehead and down to Back River and set up drifting the floats along some now exposed shell. They must have "let the school out" because these two anglers caught caught 12" Redfish, one after the other.  Garland battled a hard fighting Jack Crevalle to the boat, then we move on.

After fishing Spanish Drop on the last of an outgoing tide, we made a short run over to some rocks at Nassauville and filled our limit catching Mangrove Snapper, the biggest being right at 13". We were fishing jigs and shrimp on the bottom. As we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
