Trout Were the Main Fare

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 immediately began to get bites - those floats were going under! They won some and lost some - Matt and Kian hauled in one together then Divya and Ruchika hooked up and landed a couple. Ruchika added a Bluefish to her catch total. A couple of those Trout were of keeper size.

We then ran thru Horsehead and over to Poteat Point and although it wasn't on fire, they did get another Trout. We bounced back thru Jackstaff and fished a creek and here Matt got hot - he landed a nice fat keeper sized Seatrout, then tangled with another. Back thru Horsehead we went and down to Nassauville to fish with jigs deep between a couple of docks. Divya added another Trout to the catch and she also caught a Perch deep.

We fished down the dock line, tossing the jigs and it was Matt who had a strong hookup. I could see the fish flash and it was a feisty Redfish with a bunch of spots -12 total. This angling family had a few fresh fish in the box, we had had a beautiful day, so as we headed back to the ramp we counted it as another great day to be fishing here at Amelia Island, Florida.
