Fishing The Nassau

 | By Seamus on 7/21/2023 3:52:00 PM | Views (65)

 I thought I had the day off today and had a long "to-do" list ready but luckily the Coffey's saved me! One of my regular customers who was set to fish today called in that he'd had to have an emergency medical procedure so the day was opened when Tracy Coffey contacted me yesterday afternoon. I met him, his son Tracy B, and his daughter-in-law Maggie down at  the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early this morning and after a short run up the Nassau we turned into the current and began to fish jigs and live shrimp on the very first of an incoming tide.

I think the first cast produced a small Redfish that Tracy B hauled in and then we had good hookups catching the small Reds, a couple of keeper Seatrout, and a good handful of Jack Crevalle.  We then moved up the river to just past Twin Creeks and fished back. Here, Tracy B hooked up and landed a keeper sized Flounder then his dad had a drag ripping bite, fought it valiantly, and after a long battle, landed a 3' Bonnethead Shark.  And shortly after that it was Tracy' B's turn to battle the Shark. He patiently played it and brought it to the boat for pictures and release. Maggie got in on the action, catching a hard fighting Jack Crevalle, a small Trout, and a Trout that was right there at keeper size.

We floated some shrimp at some rocks at Seymore's Pointe and landed a couple of small Mangrove Snapper, then moved down the way and switched to jigs and picked up a handful of Snapper, again small, then we wrapped up down at Pumpkin Hill drifting float rigs up. Stacy B wrapped things up with a final feisty Redfish catch and as we headed back to the dock, we counted  it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
