When Chris from VA comes onboard I know it’s going to be a very interesting evening. S E winds 15-20 gusts to 25. He got into a bunch of Jacks to start then some Snook. We then went on a Tarpon hunt. It paid off we had to wait for the tide to change & when it did the Poons were chewing. 3- in the air 1-broke off & landed 1 He said we’re done ended it on a hi note.

Andy came out for his annual New Year’s Day fishing trip. Got a Jack on the first cast and thought it was gonna go downhill. But the tarpon were rolling and chewing really good this morning. He went to nine on Tarpon and ended it with a cuda. Great way to start the new year.

Jack & Tarpon Snook

despite the cool weather that we’ve been having this snook or chewing really good this evening. Peter from Michigan had a great evening with snook and a few jacks. Size 4 or white minnow was the fly of choice used one fly all night until he hooked a big fish and it wrapped around a piling and broke off.

Had Heath from Pennsylvania come out for his first salt, water fishing trip on fly. He was able to knock the snook off his bucket list, along with a bunch of jacks a few of them that were taken all poppers bunch of moon fish, and even had a tarpon bite.

John from North Carolina came out for his first Doc light trip. And what a night he had common snook giant tarpon snook jacks moonfish ladyfish. All on a size 4 white minnow.

biggest tarpon snook I’ve ever seen

Doug had an unbelievable morning. I didn’t know what to expect due to the cold weather we’ve been having. But the snook and Jax were tearing it up. Small 2 inch white fly took all the fish. Even got some small jacks on Papa’s and lost a big one.

Tarpon Snook

Went to fish with a friend of mine on Lake Ida Fishing was very slow probably due to the cool front we have coming through.

Fish we’re taking on 2 to 3 inch bait fish patterns

Andy wanted to fish the full moon last night. It was really windy and wind against the tide. We had a great night couple ladyfish couple of nice size jacks plenty of snook but the tarpon alluded us. We had courtroom eats and couldn’t stay tight. He was using a size 2 light tan shrimp fly all night.
