Upriver fishing

Has anybody fished upriver in St. Marks, Aucilla, or Econfina? Just wondered if they were still biting, haven't been in a while.
I put in at Newport and fished down river for maybe 2 miles. The tide was going out quite hard. I was throwing a small chatterbait with a DOA shad on it, and a gold spoon. No luck, but had something hit my Yozuri minnow on the way back, it looked about the size of a football and jumped about 3 ft out of the water and off my hook.
It was my first time river fishing, different set of frustrations on a river than on the flats.
