Some hit and miss days recently on the Nature Coast, but always a fun time. The tarpon chase is never a guarantee, but when it comes together; those days are special. A couple more weeks and I'll be jumping in to the grouper game; before I spend most of July in Wyoming. I'll check in soon and don't forget; grouper season opens Wednesday... Capt. Dan
It's been pretty good out there in tarpon land this week and we've been jumping fish just about every day. Today I had JC on board and we brought a beautiful tarpon boat side. We saw several schools of fish and after several refusals; we presented the right fly to the right fish and connected. A fine tarpon around 90lbs came to the boat, took some great pictures and set her free. A great day and great job JC... Capt. Dan
The tarpon action continues to be quite good for the morning hours, but slowing a bit during the day. The last couple of trips we've seen some good fish, had some eaters and jumped a few. Dark colored flies are still whats working best and here's a recent shot of a big tarpon giving us a dance.... Capt. Dan
Another great morning on the tarpon flats and we were able to hook up two fine tarpon on the fly. We left at sun up this morning and worked a channel to some rising fish. The black/orange color combination was the flavor of the day and both fish put on a spectacular show. The season is looking quite good and lets hope it continues... Capt. Dan
