Big Shark Makes the Day

There were three generations fishing off of The Anglers Mark today - Mark Barickman, his son Matt,and his father-in-law Steve.  We met down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp early - 7am and I had actually launched just after 6am to try and get some finger mullet to use as bait.  I had just a little over a dozen when the anglers arrived and hung around just a little longer, casting the net to get another dozen.  We made our first stop up at Jackstaff and the anglers picked up a few fish with Matt landing a nice Jack Crevalle and Steve  caught a fairly big Catfish.   They caught one or two feisty Redfish then Matt had a strong hookup and his rod bent and drag ripped out, FISH ON!  We chased the big fish as Matt kept the pressure on and after a long battle that took Matt from bow to stern, he landed a big 3'+ Bonnethead Shark!  This fish woke the boat up!  While all that was going on Mark put a keeper sized Seatrout in the boat.  We made a run through Jackstaff and fished the Nassau River side and again caught a good handful of fish, mostly Croaker and Snapper, but Matt also landed a nice Black "puppy" Drum.  Mark had another hookup with a Seatrout here, also.  We made our last stop at Broward Island and landed a couple of more Snapper and a Seatrout, but the highlite of the the trip was when a Manatee came up just at the bow of the boat!  With that,  we called it a day, another great one to be out on Amelia Island waters.
