More great fishing. My same anglers from last night had me again today. We caught a couple tarpon in the morning, not a red hot bite but we got both of them plus a few sharks. Caught some pilchards and had a blast catching LOTS of snook and a couple reds after that. Then we caught another tarpon near home in Islamorada to end the day. So 3 for 3 on the tarpon today, great fishing! July tarpon fishing in the florida keys is still good!

7/7/14 July Islamorada Night Tarpon Fishing and everglades day report
Well had a morning half and an evening half today. Likely one of my last evening charters as I’ve had a very busy season and still fishing most days so I’m happy. Though I may open a few evenings when conditions look good if people are still interested in going so definitely check with me. I can always point you to other good tarpon guides if I’m not available! Anyways we had 1 tarpon bite this morning back in the everglades that we caught, a 50 lb fish on a light rod. Good fight. We also caught plenty of sharks including lemons, blacktips, and a nice hammerhead. Mullet were a little tougher though I did get lucky and made 1 throw and caught about 2 dozen. This evening we fished locally around islamorada. Incoming tide just about until dark. I didn’t have real high hopes but fishing was great. We caught 3 out of 5 tarpon in the 65 – 100 lb range! We also got a couple sharks and a couple of ‘mud marlin’. Great fishing for this time of year! July tarpon fishing in Islamorada can still be very productive, it’s a matter of being at the right place at the right time!
7/6/14 July Tarpon Fishing in Islamorada
Well today was a little slower then yesterday. We did catch 1 tarpon in the morning though we fished for a little over an hour before we had a ‘for sure’ tarpon bite. Got him though. Lots of sharks too. After that we did some stuff with the light rods – big mangrove snappers and a few trout. Then we tried tarpon again in the afternoon. Caught a few more sharks including a big 200+ lb bull shark. Jumped one other tarpon off unfortunately that one did not stick. But 1 for 2 on the day, fishing is consistent for tarpon in July here in Islamorada.
