Just when I think the water can't be any calmer then we have a day like today.  I picked up Bill Easom
and his party of friends Dan, Mike and Gordy at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp this morning at 7:30am.  The river was as slick as a lake and there was some lingering fog as we headed up the Nassau River. We ran straight to Bubblegum Reef to fish the area as the tide began to creep back in.  There was outstanding action with the anglers catching Seatrout, Puppy Drum, and a nice keeper sized Flounder - caught by Bill. They also had a Perch, Ladyfish,
Snapper, a couple of Jack Crevalle's and an "ex-wife" fish.  The tide had come up somewhat and we all noticed the big wakes on the other side of an old oyster bed so a few of the anglers stepped out of the boat in knee deep water and waded to the oyster bed to fish the other side.  It wasn't long before Bill had a strong hookup and, FISH ON!  He played the fish patiently and we soon netted a nice Redfish!  Mike and Dan got in on the action off of the oyster bed by picking up some Seatrout while Gordy fished the deeper water and picked up Trout, too. Dan hooked up with a very nice Slot Redfish
and brought him to the net, then Gordy picked a Red up out deep.  Later, we made a run back down Nassau and here Mike had the hot rod fishing a float rig an live shrimp, catching a handful of Seatrout.  We then ran around through Horsehead and with only a short time to go Gordy picked up a Whiting then Bill had a hookup that had his drag singing!  He played the big fish perfectly and after an extended battle he landed a big 3 1/2' Bonnethead Shark! With that, we called it a day, another great one to be out on Amelia Island waters! Read More
