April has been decent overall this year for tarpon. Honeslty not quite as good as last year though not bad. We’ve just had to work at it a lot of days and some days that leads to banner fishing and some days just a few fish. But that’s fishing! We’ve still been having some late cold fronts (though at least not major tempearture drops – just northerly winds) and very windy days, which can make fishing a little more tricky. I’m hoping May/June is going to be on fire for us but we will see what happens!
Here is a great video of Glen catching his first tarpon he fished with me for 2 days. We caught several each day though on the first day he wasn’t able to get a ‘face grab’ but on day 2 the first fish of the day cooperated for that!
