Check out our latest YouTube video – a days fishing with Darryl Choronzey, who had a fishing show in Canada for many years. Video was lots of fun and we get a big bull red at the end of the day!

1/17/20 January Tarpon in the Everglades National Park
Got out the last couple days and the wind laid out and of course its been unseasonably warm. Thousands of tarpon showed up, but it may be short lived as we have a hard front coming in over the weekend suppose to blow 30 Saturday, and get in the 50s sunday/monday. But we enjoyed it while it lasted. Got a big 140 lber yesterday for Mark Gregg, and made an awesome YouTube video of it. A big bull shark almost got it but luckily the fish got away! Today Gentry got a 60 lber to the boatside before pulling the hook on our light gear too. Anyways I think it may likely be a good early start to the season again, we had great fishing last year in February and March. But time will tell but as long as it’s warm it’ll likely happen!
I’m also very busy these days with 2 kids and starting to do some YouTube stuff, so I am not going to be doing my daily tarpon reports any longer. I’ll try to give a weekly synopsis, but follow my social media accounts for daily reports of what’s going on.

11/8/19 November Tarpon Fishing in Islamorada
Got out filming today for the Bud n Marys show on YouTube! We did a variety of things, but did run into a nice school of tarpon early on. Drifted in and cast a few pinfish to them and they ate happily! I landed a nice 30 lb fish, and our friend Vic had a bite too but we slurped it right off of there. After that we left them alone but it was cool to see! Looks like we have some cold weather coming in the next week, will probably shut the tarpon off a bit. Sometimes some little ones eat shrimp here and there, but overall targeting tarpon is probably not going to be a regular thing from now through January. But of course we’ll catch some random ones here and there, and if the weather gets right it might be worthwhile. 1 for 2
