Dan from N.J. joined me today for tarpon and sharks. The tarpon fishing was really slow and inspite of our efforts we didn't get a bite. Moving off to sharks even they were playing hard to get with a few sharks coming up to our baits, sticking their heads out of the water, open their mouths to eat the baits and then moving off. We finally hooked one and Dan was able to get his first shark. What a relief!

The weather was gorgeous today, what a difference a day makes! Matt jumped aboard for a 4 hour morning trip and had a big tarpon come up on one of our baits and eat bit the hook didn't set and we missed the bite. Spot two Matt hooked a BIG permit in the 30lb class but it broke us off 5 minutes into the fight. The morning ended with Matt catching a few fish. Capt.

This was an afternoon charter with Chris, Lou and Jack. The goal was tarpon and the first spot was slow, and rough. The easterly wind had the bay whipped up and I decided to fish in calmer water. On the first drift we had a big tarpon blow up on our bait but the bait was pulled out of its mouth. Oh no! We ended the trip early due to a severe storm and lighting all around us. Capt.

It had been 5 years since Eric had been fishing, way too long! Giving tarpon fishing an opportunity we saw two BIG tarpon swim by the boat bee lining for our baits. One of them comes uo t our bait, tries to eat it but misses them comes back, eats, rod doubles over and them spits the bait. Geeze! Hitting the flats Eric caught 3 species of shark and sight cast a nice barracuda using artificial lures. The chase and hit was awesome!

April 30, 2016 AM and PM Report

AM Report This was an unusual request, Kevin from the U.K. wanted to go fishing but had 2 hours to fish. OK, no problem let's do it. Working our way to South Beach we fished a few grass flats for trout where he caught a few on artificial lures on our my way to drop him off in South Beach. PM Report Steve and his wife jumped aboard at 1pm and we were off to the flats. Giving tarpon fishing a quick shot we ran south to the flats in order to avoid the weekend crowds and shark fished. There were tons of BIG sharks but none would eat. Steve had one about 6 feet come up to the bait, eat it and start a drag burning run only to spit the bait. URGH! Capt.

April 29, 2016 Report (Tarpon Video!)

Today I fished with local anglers Bob and Jonathan and again we had gorgeous weather.   Spot one Jonathan hooked a nice permit and had it next to the boat until the fish made one last run and broke off.   URGH!   We continued to work until Bob hooked a big 130lb tarpon.   During the fight we had to fight off three separate bull shark attacks on Bob's tarpon but we got the quick release before the bull shark could eat the tarpon.   Like yesterday,  we ended the trip with tons of shots at bonefish.

Today I fished with local angler and regular client Alec.   We had gorgeous weather again and started off tarpon fishing getting two hits,  hooking one and losing the 80lber after a few jumps.  We then hit the bonefish flats and while largely devoid of bonefish Alec took advantage of the laid up barracudas on the flat and sight casted 3 of them.  It was truly a blast fit both of us as we would spot them,  Alec would make a long accurate cast in front and past the barracuda and reel like mad.   The strikes were ferocious and the drag would sizzle as they raced across the flats.   The last shot proved to be the best as we ended the day taking some shots at schools of bonefish.
