Got out with my regulars Sarah and Barry who are over from Scotland. We did the early morning deep everglades run as I told him it’d been very good the last several days. Unfortunately today though it was a different ball game! There were a few fish back there – nothing like what we saw yesterday though. We moved a few times and I thought we’d of gotten a bite, but they did not want to play. We hooked several sharks and sting rays and that was it. After a couple hours I figured it wasn’t gonna happen. We back tracked and caught a few trout and jacks on our light gear. Then we found a few tarpon in one of the channels that I normally fish in the summer time. This was good to see we caught a nice 60 lber for Sarah and some triple tails as well and a few more sharks. I had seen one roll in the channel yesterday so I figured it might be worth it to take a look. This is good news and hopefully it means some summer time fish will get in their usual haunts. Funny how quickly things can change back there though. 1 for 1
