4/4/13 Tarpon fishing in Islamorada

Well been getting back to tarpon fishing now that the last cold front had been over.  The last few nights had been a little tough, we went 0/3 last night losing a fish in the bridge and not getting tight on the 2 before that, but that is tarpon fishing in islamorada for you. Today we made up for it though we went 4/4 in the backcountry everglades tarpon fishing this morning by 10 am.  This evening we did an evening tarpon fishing charter and went 4/9 which is great fishing.  All fish on live fresh caught mullet this morning!  8/13 in a day, woo hoo!  The wind is suppose to crank tomorrow and blow 30+ mph so may not be good fishing for a few days, plus the temperature will dip slightly but not too cold.  We may try dead baiting a bit around the channels as there won’t be many other options, but that is a good one for a day like that!

3/24-25/13 Tarpon Report

Caught big tarpon yesterday and today on 3/24/13 and 3/25/13 despite fronts, winds, rain, and non-ideal conditions.  Yesterday in the backcountry we got a big 100+ lber along with plenty of sharks.  Today we got about a 75 lb local fish with some fresh mullet we caught nearby.  The cold fronts that are coming tonight will likely make tarpon fishing in islamorada a little tough for the week, but not impossible.

3/22/13 March Tarpon in the Florida Keys

Caught another march florida keys tarpon fishing today along with several big sharks, trout, and some nice tripletail to end the day.  Fishing cut baits in the backcountry there were lots of fish around.  We only had one tarpon bite but it was enough for my angler to land the fish of his dreams!  The big tarpon in islamorada are here now and if the weather stays nice they should stay happy.  If you want to come down and catch a tarpon in the florida keys then now can be a great time – early in the season and the fish are not beat up yet.  Night fishing is a great option make sure to ask about that!
