June started off with a bang. I had Chris down with his dad and brother out fishing for tarpon. We were originally going to do a half day though I told the guys a 3/4 day would be much better as we can make the run into the everglades and have time to fish a couple different areas. They said that was cool so we did it. I had bait leftover from yesterday. We found some tarpon in some channels around flamingo, saw several roll right as we pulled up. Soon we hooked a tarpon but jumped him off and caught a big lemon shark. Later we hooked another tarpon and we landed him a nice 70 lb fish. After that things slowed down a little we caught a big jack, saw a few more tarpon roll and tried to get in front of them, but no more bites. The tide quit and we went to spot #2. Saw a few tarpon rolling once in a while, and caught several more sharks. Then we hooked up a nice tarpon and landed him. A few more sharks and then we hooked our final tarpon of the day and landed him as well. All in all a great day, I think the summer time fishing will be very good again this year! 3 for 4
