Tarpon
« on: June 11, 2023, 05:19:56 PM »
Went out Saturday… blacked out well; went south, one rolling tarpon.  After a hour went north and found numerous schools well over 300 tarpon spotted. Casted a fly and they didn’t eat, tossed in line bait and they ate, or at least one did.  Broke off 65lb test.  Fish was a beast, Crystal clear water, great eat.

Travel next week,
More to come

Saw a few people looking for them at Cape San Blas last week. The water there was gin clear also. I didn't see any tarpon but saw plenty of other fish. Mostly Sharks, Specks and Reds. Oh and Sailcats which I found that I prefer over Redfish to eat. I've always been told that you don't eat sailcats. Wrong, they are delicious.
