Slam and a Shark

 | By Seamus on 6/9/2013 12:35:23 AM | Views (117)

Tropical storm Audrey passed through yesterday and left today sunny with only a nice breeze to fish in.  I met Jeremy Price and his son Aason at the Atlantic Seafood dock early this morning and we headed north with just a couple of hours until high tide.  We made a stop outside of Tiger Island, fished some topwater lures but had now strikes at all.  When we switched to live shrimp under a float things picked up and Aason landed "the poor man's Tarpon", a Ladyfish.  Jeremy added a hard fighting Jack Crevalle then picked up a small Seatrout and another Ladyfish.  Then Aason had a really good bite and he played the fish expertly and landed a keeper sized Seatrout.  And just a few minutes later Jeremy had a good bite too and landed a keeper sized Flounder.  We moved closer to the mouth of Tiger, picked up another Ladyfish, a Jack, and a Seatrout then we made a run up in to Jolley River to fish a small marsh run out with no luck.  Our next stop was Snook Creek and I switched the anglers to a jig and shrimp combo and this paid off because Aason hooked up with something big and the fight was on!  He played the big fish patiently and went from port to starboard on the bow and back again, and again.  The fish made a couple of runs but Aason kept the pressure on and after a good battle we landed a nice 2'+ Bonnethead Shark.  We fished the mouth of Jolley, caught a couple of hungry Seatrout then Jeremy had his float disappear and he too had a good battle, landing a Redfish, just barely under the slot.  This Red gave the anglers an Amelia Island back country Slam of Trout, Flounder and Redfish.  With that, we called it a day, another great one to be out on Amelia Island waters!
