Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
Well summer feels like it is here things sure are getting hot now. We've still been having some crazy weather patterns though the last few days have been absolutely gorgeous. Before that we had a couple days of solid rain again coming out of the tropics. On 6/3/12 I got back in the backcountry fishing with Mickey, Mike, and Mike for some backcountry fishing. The day before we had caught loads of trout, ladyfish, and a few snappers. Had tried islamorada tarpon fishing for a little while but action fishing was preferred! On this day we started out way back in the everglades. First fish of the day was a large snook of 20+ lbs! Great way to start. We then caught 3 big sea monsters for something large for the boys to pull on. One of them drug us a mile inshore. We also had a hammerhead shark eat a pinfish off the surface while getting pulled around which was a cool sight to see. Tarpon were rolling in the area but we did not have any bites out of them. After this we hit some high tide shoreline spots and found some nice redfish, and also caught half a dozen black drum which is unusual for this time of year, as well as another snook! Great day of family fishing in the florida keys!
Capt. Skip Nielsen had been reported good tarpon action on mullet last week with several multiple fish days, though finding the mullet is getting tougher and tougher. Some bites on the falling tide in the afternoons have also come on crabs, Capt. Perry Scuderi had a nice fish the other afternoon on a crab. Capt. Mike Bassett also reported some snook action in the everglades on live pilchards. The falling tide will be extending nicely into the evening trip hours throughout this week, so it would be a good time to plan a night tarpon fishing trip in islamorada!
