April 25, 2014 AM & PM Report

The morning found Jack and his friend on the bow in search of tarpon. After a quick run, we found them rolling and busting on the surface. Handing a fly rod to Jack's friend and drifting back a bait on a big spinning rod, we drifted and waited. The waiting didn't take long as the spinning rod doubled over and the reel screaming. The big tarpon stayed deep and for most of the fight and after a few minutes it decides to jump to reveal its massive size, well over 100lbs. As he sounded for the bottom again he spits the hook the we lose him. After a few more drifts and running out of time we make a dash for sea trout and catch trout on soft plastics and on the fly rod. It was a good morning and Jack got to experience the silver rage of a BIG tarpon.

The afternoon had me poling Tucker along the bonefish flats where he had some shots at bones and permit on fly but to hook ups. We ended the afternoon catching trout on fly and soft plastics. We had gorgeous conditions today!
