Background
Capt. Matt Kane was born and raised on the water around Amelia Island. He grew up in a fishing family and was handed down many local honey holes and lure presentations that have continued to work through generations.
Techniques
Capt. Matt Kane prefers to fish artificial lures as it brings out a whole different level of fishing. Not only are you covering more ground, you are also looking for fish and making pinpoint cast and presentations to get that fish to bite. It is a thrill you didn’t know you needed until you experience.

Trout/Redfish Bite
Trout/Redfish Bite
Dec 8, 2025 Fernandina Beach
As the water temperatures continue to drop, the trout and redfish bite around Amelia Island is firing up in a big way. Cooler conditions push these fish into predictable patterns, concentrating them in the creeks, grass lines, and deeper pockets where the action can be nonstop. Whether youโ€™re looking for steady speckled trout hookups or hard-charging redfish crushing baits, now is prime time to be on the water. Book a charter with Amelia Coastal Fishing Charters and let our local captains put you right on the bite while the fall feeding frenzy is at its peak.

Inshore Slam & Black Drum
Inshore Slam & Black Drum
Apr 4, 2025 Fernandina Beach
The morning started crisp and clear as we pushed off the dock at 08:00AM. Within the first hour, our focus on creek mouths and oyster beds paid off with a keeper redfish falling for fresh shrimp on the bottom. The real excitement began when we moved to a grass flat during the incoming tide, where a beautiful 24 inch redfish crushed our live shrimp on a jig head. Moving to the deeper holes around dock pilings, we landed our flounder - a fat 16-incher that doubled up with another 13 inch flounder. The slam was completed when a 16-inch trout ambushed our bait along a spartina grass edge. Between these trophy catches, we stayed busy with a steady parade of black drum, landing four keepers between 14-20 inches. By noon, the fish box was heavy with our limits, and everyone wore satisfied grins from an exceptional morning on the water.

Split Trip (Offshore/Inshore) 03/01/25
Maa 2, 2025 Fernandina Beach
Morning Session (Offshore - Red Snapper): The day began at dawn with a 20-mile run offshore into the Atlantic waters. Anchoring over prime reef structure in 70 feet of water, clients deployed cut bait and artificial lures. The Red Snapper bite was explosive, with multiple double-ups happening throighout the day. The highlight was a 14-pound Red Snapper that put up an incredible fight, testing both tackle and angler. Afternoon Session (Inshore): The afternoon shift focused on inshore waters. Working the mud flats and oyster beds produced several slot-sized Redfish and Black Drum that were caught using live shrimp near shorelines. trophy 35-pound Black Drum. Weather conditions were ideal with light West winds and clear skies. The combination of offshore and inshore fishing provided clients with diverse fishing experiences and multiple trophy catches in a single day.
