Tarpon Season Report July 2014
Now we are not quite at the halfway point of the season. There are tarpon spread all over the area right now. There are still plenty of tarpon along the beaches, in the passes, in the back bays and even in the rivers. With the exception of a couple windy days the fishing so far has been great. We have had multiple hookups and releases just about every day. The spawn is almost over. Very soon food is all these fish will have on their mind.
The best tarpon fishing of the season is still to come.
We just did a photo shoot with photographer extraordinaire Sara Forrest for the 2015 St.Croix Rods catalog. I only saw a couple outtake shots so far, but the photos she took are unreal. Sara even made catching bait look amazing. Not to mention the tarpon I caught. Jenni and I are looking forward to seeing the finished product.
As usual I will be fishing 7 days a week. I will update this report as often as I can, but you can get reports more frequently by visiting my Facebook page. I will be posting new photos every week.
October is booked solid already, but I have more openings in July-September for Tarpon ONLY!!!
Peak tarpon season I am still open:
August 11th-13th, 21st and 27th.
Keep the line tight and bow when they jump!
