Yesterday I fished with John O’Hearn. Our plan was to find a pocket of large tarpon and give the six a shot. We had a report that there were some large creatures very far east, and we left at 7:30 to find them. At 8:45 we arrived in the basin, and began our hunt. We…
Read MoreThis morning I fished with Aaron Snell. I must say that it felt great to get out there, as I haven’t been fishing since the weather went poor on the 19 and got better a few days ago. We left relatively early, and found a few fish at our first stop. I had a great…
Read MoreThe weather is beautiful, and I just spoke to Charles Smid who hooked 5 tarpon today with John O’Hearn–we’re glad things have turned around. I’m fishing with Aaron for a few hours before work on Saturday, and a report (hopefully with a title like “So Much Drying” will follow. Tuesday I fish with John, and…
Read MoreSo this weather continues, and we’re all about sick of it. For such a great year, June has certainly been underwhelming. I lost two days in the middle of this month; the last day that was reasonable was Monday 18 June; nearly ten days ago as I write this. While that’s not a long time…

Read MoreOur fishing on Monday was pretty difficult, as The Wind had moved in and we didn’t have much visibility due to a pretty consistent cloud cover. Conditions notwithstanding, we fished hard all morning and early afternoon for the six. Our first spot didn’t produce, and we simply moved from area to area in hopes of…

Read MoreYesterday I fished with Aaron Snell, and we have the next two days booked as well. We were in pursuit of the 6, and as such knew we were making a concession of quantity for a (hopeful) increase in quality. Our first four spots didn’t produce but a handful of shots, and most of those…
Read MoreI’ve heard that the fishing has been great today from a few people out there. I fish tomorrow with Aaron, and then Monday and Tuesday as well. John O’Hearn may join us for Monday, and I have him booked on Friday also. Lots of fishing coming up, and reports and photos will follow. ncl
