What is meant by Inshore Light Tackle fishing?
We’ll stay in the rivers and creeks on the west and south side of Amelia Island. There’s very little “rocking and rolling” like there is on the beach side. Typically there’s larger fish out in the ocean, but in my opinion, not as much wildlife. It’s peaceful in the backcountry. The rod’s and reels are rated for lighter line so the drags are set loose. If you get a big fish on, you let it run, then slowly work it in. Anglers cast to structure such as oyster beds, sandbars and run outs in the marsh grass.
