Sorry for being a bit late in the updates but I was swamped with fishing and doing night time trips tends to wear me out....Anyway fellow anglers the Tarpon are here. I fished the Redbone Tarpon tournament at Hawk's Cay Resort and despite the ongoing windy situation, 20 boats attended and 31 Tarpon were caught. The conditions were too rough for most boats to fish the bridges(25-35 Mph winds) and IMHO the catch rate was lower than it could have been. Yours truly wasn't that lucky with the tarpon but we managed to get spectacular jumps out of the sharks trying to eat our mullet.
The main goal of the Redbone series of tournaments is to raise funds for Cystic Fibroses. This is a worthy cause to fish for and I was happy to be part of it. I had a camera malfunction so hopefully I can add to this blog the photos of the other trips I did where my anglers caught redfish and snook. Next week snook season closes for the summer btw.
Stay tuned for the rest..
Tight lines!!
