March, April, Mid May
The Tarpon this year have come through in waves. Weather has been the determining factor but thus far the fishing has been good, and a vast improvement from last year. There are also good number of baby Tarpon around this year, which have provided explosive surface strikes and high flying jumps on a 9 weight rod.
As weather patterns change from one week to the next the Tarpon have been filtering up and down the coast. Warm, non-windy, humid days have been best. For those of you who are booked for June and July, I’m very excited! The past few weeks have seen good action and more fish moving into the area. So keep you’re fingers crossed for good weather and swimming Tarpon.
The Snook and Redfish have been biting on the lower tides as well. It seems as of late there have been fewer Red’s around but we certainly have been seeing some large Snook. The Snook have been pushing toward the outside beaches and bays closer to the outside in the past few weeks, so I’m looking forward to great sight fishing on the beaches in the near future.
I am now starting to book for the fall so please let me know if you are interested, because prime days will go fast. If any of you have pictures please send them to me via email or burn them to a CD, I would appreciate it. Please look for more pictures in the coming weeks.
Nice work Mary Jane that was an awesome top water eat on fly!
Congratulations to Bill Dinsmore on his first day of five, slamming out Everglades style!
