Baitfish Signals Good Bite

 | By Seamus on 8/26/2024 4:18:00 PM | Views (13)

 There were tons of bait fish passing thru Sawpit when I launched this morning -finger mullet and some
small pogeys. I already had a baitwell full of live shrimp but I couldn't pass up tossing the net to supplement what we had and I'm glad we did!  I met Gregg Fitgerald and his mom Ginnie early and we ran up the intercoastal, up the Nassau, and pulled up at an exposed shell bed on a tide that still had a couple of more hours of going out. It wasn't long before both anglers were catching fish - feisty Redfish, one after the other. Gregg went out deep with couple of casts and picked up some hungry Seatrout. He also added a hard fighting Jack Crevalle to the catch total. 

We moved up a hundred yards and caught a couple more of the Reds, then Gregg hooked up and landed anice keeper sized Flounder. Then Ginnie followed that with one of her own, bigger, and caught on one of the finger mullet. Gregg had a good bump, set the hook and expertly landed a keeper sized Seatrout. We moved up another couple of hundred yards, caught another couple of Reds, one of which had zero spots!



The tide had slowed to a stop and so did the bite. We ran down to Nassauville and fished between two docks, to no avail, then we ran back down te Nassau, and then on thru Horsehead and over to Jackstaff "bank". Ginnie had the hot hand early and caught another few of those Redfish then she had one final hookup. She played it patiently and worked to the boat another nice keeper Flounder. We had had good action for most of the morning, had a few keepers in the box so as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Isalnd, Florida.
