It’s finally feeling life summer with calm mornings and high humidity. We started this morning chasing bonefish in slick calm conditions and while we did find some exciting big waking fish, they were not around in big numbers. Moving on to permit, I found about 5 schools of permit in the slick calm edge of an oceanside flat but they were all swimming at an off angle to the boat but we managed a couple of shots. We did end the day fighting a nice 60lb tarpon which gave us some nice runs and three big jumps before breaking us off. By summer standards it was an overall slow day but I did manage to get my angler some solid shots at the big three (bonefish, tarpon and permit).
