 Bragging Rights Busted. I had met Scott Carter and his son Benny up at Old Town Bait and Tackle this
afternoon on a tide that had been coming in for about an hour. We made our way over to Tyger Island and fished the logs with jigs and live shrimp. Benny "knocked the skunk off" early with a Slot Redfish catch then Scott had a good "thump" and a hookup. He fought it to the boat and I was thinking "another Redfish" but it was hugging the deep bottom. He worked it up and landed a huge 22.5" Flounder - still out of season, but big enough to move into first place in the Anglers Mark 2024 Bragging Rights Tournament -Flounder Category (scroll down the right side of this report for standings). Boy what a fish!

We worked up and down the island and picked up a good handful of Seatrout -most caught out deep, and a few more Redfish, most caught up near the bank. We then made our way around to the Jolley River, turned into the current, and fished the "bank" with floats and live shrimp. They caught a good handful of Seatrout, and a couple of more Redfish (they ended the day with 2 Slot Reds and 3 keeper Trout). Scott battled a big Bonnethead Shark to the boat for photograph and release, and Benny hooked up and landed a Shark of his own. 

After running up the river we fished Snook Creek, caught a few Trout there, then moved back down to Tyer Cut. Benny stayed hot catching Seatrout, and they  added two more Shark to their catch total.  We were catching so many Seatrout I could sense some boredom coming on! The sun was heading down, there was only a slight breeze, the few clouds that we had had moved on, and as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
