Early Fall Season - Kick-off

Capt Dave's Sport Fishing Charters www.captdaves.com - Jacksonville, FL. {%image_id=55592%} Thanks to hurricane Irma's passing, it was not exactly what "land-lubbers" would call a wonderful thing. But to local anglers, it was just what we needed! Yes, Tropical storms, Hurricanes. The great "renewers". After a hot summer. All the rain and wind is a giant FLUSH. Something Mother Nature does, with a pretty awesome outcome, for Anglers! From say downtown Jax. to the Mayport Jetties. The great flush brings bent rods and full fish boxes. The river went FRESH....yep, fresh water! Just what is normally lacking. The river in this area is usually way too salty. (dredging, depth, inflow of the Ocean water, not natural) Estuary species, love fresh water. At least "X" number of parts of it. In the mix. B-A-I-T....Mullet schools at the Mayport Jetties are thick and dinner bells for schools of Jacks, Tarpon, Sharks and Redfish. I found, around the Dames Point Bridge, keeper Redfish, Black Drum, fresh water Catfish, and my favorites; Speckled Sea Trout. Ganged up, in the sweeter water. These fish will move around as the water changes. {%image_id=55587%} A simple "jig-n-shrimp" will catch it all! Finding these species near rocks, docks and hard bottom areas. Here's a link to my video. The first trip after the storm. From the Jetties to the Dames Point bridge. We left them biting.

"IT'S ALSO BULL REDFISH SEASON, TOO" {%image_id=55588%} {%image_id=55586%} -Capt Dave (Jettywolf)
