A Bite On Every Cast

 Happy Thanksgiving to All - I hope you have a great holiday with friends and family!

I wrapped up a short week today fishing with Allen Webb, meeting him down at Sawpit Creekboat ramp. It had warmed a bit as the week progressed, and there was very little wind, and the first hour or so we had some dreary, cloudy skies. The tide had been going out for about an hour - Allen and I made our way up the Nassau River and fished a large outflow with float rigs and live shrimp, and an hour later, we noted that we had gotten a bite on every cast!  We didn't hookup 'em all up but we caught a bunch!  Mostly Seatrout, with one being a keeper, and a handful of Redfish, with one being of Slot size.

As the tide got down the bite finally did slow down so we ran thru Horsehead and over to Poteat Pointe. Allen was making excellent casts forward to the grass and it paid off with Seatrout catches, with a couple of Redfish. As we moved up along the bank Allen pitched it to a point of grass, let it drift, and BAM! He had a hookup. This one was pulling big and digging deep, but shaking it's head and sure enough, when Allen brought it to the net, we saw it was a nice 18" Seatrout.

After fishing a submerged sandbar point over in Jackstaff we ran back thru Horsehead and down to Back River where we again "anchored" along a shell point. And things got real busy! Allen put a Trout in the boat then he started getting Redfish. He added another smaller Slot Red, then had a strong hookup that ripped drag, ran deep, ran south, then POOF, it threw the hook!  But Allen kept fishing and shortly had another strong bite, a strong battle with drag ripping, and this time he landed a nice 24" Slot Red.

We fished between docks at Nassauville then made our way over to Seymore's Pointe and finished up catching Seatrout, Black "puppy" Drum, and a fairly big Mangrove Snapper. The sun was now out, the skies were clear, we had a box full of fish, and as we made our way back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
