About when I think I've got fishing figured out I get surprised. This morning after meeting Henry Ross his sister Laura and her husband Dennis down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp we ran up the intracoastal up the Nassau and set up on a large outflow to toss float rigs and live shrimp on the first of an outgoing tide. I would have bet a dollar that...

The last couple of days there has been a trend of catching fish early on that first of a high and outgoing tide and that trend held today. I had met Wes Metheney and his son Jack down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp early this morning - the gnats wanted to carry me off as I waited for them to arrive but as we ran up the intracoastal I saw that we now h...

I went back south today to fish with Glenn and Patti Lanford. We met down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp and quickly got under way  - the No SeeUms were about to carry us off! But luckily as we ran up the river the breeze picked up and they were never an issue for the rest of the morning. The tide had been going out for about two hours as we eased...

Menagerie: A collection of wild animals kept in captivity. Yes they were wild animals (fish) but they weren't in captivity - we caught them wild. Maybe a Conglomeration? Conglomeration:   a number of different things parts or items that are grouped together; collection. There were a bunch of different things (fish)   but they were alive and well....

These guys need their own U-tube Channel-they'd go viral. I met David Vice and his two friends in from California - Dave and John - out at Goffinsville Park boat ramp as the sun was coming up. We had very little breeze and clear skies as we made our way down the Nassau River to set up fishing at Spanish Drop on the last hour of an outgoing tide. A...

We had a beautiful morning today when I met Jeff and Jinny Key down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. Clear sunny skies and just enough breeze to keep the bugs off! We made our way over to the intracoastal then up the Nassau River to fish our first spot between some docks at Nassauville. I think we were about an hour late - the tide was at a standst...

What a beautiful morning it was when I met Doug Mackle and his granddaughter Montana up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp. Clear skies just a slight bit cool and the sun coming up over the State Park. We eased out of Eagans Creek and as we did so Montana spotted to doe deer swimming across the creek heading from the Pogey Plant over to Ol...

I wrapped my week up fishing with Rick Payne and his fishing buddy Pedro meeting them up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp early this morning. We eased out of Eagans Creek and made our way up and around to the Jolley River where we turned into the current along the bank and worked back tossing float rigs and live shrimp on the last of an...

We had a beautiful sunrise today when I met Steve Locke and his son Justin out at Goffinsville Park this morning. I mentioned to Steve that we were getting some nice Trout and a few small Slot Redfish but we hadn't been getting nay BIG ones. Right. We made a quick run down the river and around to Seymore's Pointe where I thought we'd get some Se...

Boy what a front that was that came thru last night as the Mighty Gators brought home their 3rd NCAA Basketball Championship! We had thunder lighting and a steady downpour for....at least 10 minutes but it caused the temperature to drop a good 20 degrees from the previous day. I met David Barrow and his two sons Cole and Knox up at Old Town Bait...

I was back to work today fishing with the Bailey family -David and Allyson and their son John David. We met early up at Old Town Bait and Tackel knowing that the wind was going to be blowing just a bit and increasing as the day progressed and it did. Our first stop was down the intracoastal and after dipping into a small creek David and Allyson f...

I wrapped my week up fishing with Todd Johnson and his friend Todd Raleigh when I met them up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle boat ramp early. We made a run up the river towards the bridge and dipped into a creek to begin fishing with jigs and live shrimp under some dock pilings This paid off for Raleigh - he pulled a few feisty Redfish out from...

I picked up the Stettner crew this morning over at Oyster Bay -Robert and his friends Mark and Kirk. We then made the run over to Tyger Island and set up to fish jigs and live shrimp as the tide started back in. It wasn't long before this trio of anglers were catching fish. They put a couple of keeper sized Black puppy Drum in the boat a couple o...

I was out again today fishing with Steve Buckley meeting him down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp early. We've fished north the last two times we've fished together but I wanted to show Steve another side of Amelia Island. We ran up the Nassau all the way to a dock that is under repair/construction and got there before the crew showed up to get in a bi...

Another pretty day today so much so that the bugs were a bit of a problem. I had met William and Dara Blalock and their friend Brian Roach out at Goffinsville Park early - the tide was supposed to be at it's low but it was still going out so we eased down Nassauville and set up between a couple of docks to fish that last of he outgoing. I was surp...

I fished this morning with Eric Slavens meeting him up at the Old Town Bait and Tackle ramp early. We eased out of Eagans Creek and made our way over to the logs of Tyger Island to toss jigs and live shrimp on the first of an incoming tide. It wasn't long before Eric had a strong hookup and after playing the fish perfectly he landed a nice feisty...

I wrapped my week up fishing with the Dannenfelser's -David and Michele. We met up at Old Town Bait and Tackle and eased out of Eagans Creek early to make our first run over to Bell River where we set up at a point and drifted float rigs. David had a bite right off but it didn't take then we worked up and down the edge seeing multiple fish boil...

We did a share-a-trip today putting Bob Kossman and Frank Wytiaz together for a fun morning of fishing the back waters of Amelia Island (message me to be added to the share-a-trip group). We met down at Sawpit Creek this morning and run up the Nassau to make our first stop at a large outflow to toss float rigs and live shrimp on the first of an o...

We had a beautiful morning today when I met the Husa family -Matt and Ruchika and their two kids Divya and Kian down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp. We made a good run up the intracoastal then up the Nassau to Seymore's Pointe where we set up and tossed float rigs to a grassy point at a large outflow. This did the trick - the family almost immedia...

I fished today again with Andy and Jennifer Aberle meeting them out at their home and riding along in their Pathfinder to try and find some fish! We stopped real close by and tossed float rigs with live shrimp to a large outflow on a high and outgoing tide but I was somewhat surprised to see hardly any current flowing -we had no luck. We then ran...
