All the rain and high winds last week didn't seem to change the fishing to much. On a trip this past Friday with Jon Fredricks and his son Eric it was a nice mix of fish…

We mostly float fished live shrimp in the river. About the only thing we didn't catch was a Flounder I think.

We even caught a few Mangrove Snapper which is a little early for them to be in the river system. There were also some nice Jacks in the mix which are always fun to catch and a very hard fighting fish.

The main target was Trout and Reds and we did manage to catch several nice Trout and 4 Reds in the 5 pound class along with some Rat Reds. It was a great morning on the water and the fish were certainly ready to eat after a week of bad weather.

Thanks for a great time Jon and Eric and I hope to see you again next year.

Bio: Being a native of Northeast Florida I have enjoyed the excellent fishing and wildlife this area has to offer. I have been fishing the Jacksonville Florida area over 30 years with many a memorable fishing trip starting when I was a kid. We are in between and only minutes away from Amelia Island and St. Augustine, we can enjoy the fishing any direction. From downtown to the mouth of the ocean and all the back water in between.
