5/29/20 Couple tarpon from Ch 5 bridge

I had locals Bart and Kimmie out the other day.  We fished a 3/4 day locally around the bridges.  Found quite a few tarpon in a couple different spots.  They weren’t showing much, just laying on the bottom, and not very active.  Had to put some time in but we managed a couple bites and got a technical release on one, and the other to the boatside but unfortunately a shark got him after that!  Also some other action.  Youtube video is here, make sure to subscribe to see more!

5/23/20 May Tarpon Fishing in Islamorada at the Bridges

Got out for a full day today, haven’t had many charters as of late as the Keys are still shut down to visitors.  Though we will be back open June 1st and I’m getting pretty busy for June/July so book your trips now!  Tarpon fishing was incredible today… tons of fish.  We landed 5 and hooked another 4 or 5 I think.  Good bite on live mullet and dead mullet as well, everything we put out there.  Some insane battles around the bridge, and Lee even got to jump in with his fish that was in the 90 – 100 lb range.  Summer time tarpon fishing is right around the corner and July is often a superb month for that.  Some years it stays good through September even, and of course there are snook, redfish, tripletail, and plenty of other fish to target.  YouTube video of today will be out soon so make sure to watch and subscribe.  Give me a shout if you want to plan a trip, the fishing is great! 5 for 10

Got out yesterday for a fun trip with my brother and our friend local guide Capt. Charles Hertel.  We planned to make a little youtube video and it came out awesome… some good drone footage, awesome jumps and some slow mo shots, and Nick even had to float his rod through the bridge to land his tarpon… just incredible all on camera!  Check it out, and make sure to subscribe to your YouTube channel if you are not already, thanks!
