Lots of exploring followed by some great action when we find them. One of the most fascinating experiences of the last month was seeing over 1000 tarpon in one bay and all of them were only 10-15″ long and all rolling like their big bros. From Estero Bay down to the Everglades the snook fishing has been great with some redfish and baby tarpon on occasion.I still have a few days left in November and December up until Christmas. Last year we had a few days before Christmas when we hook and landed some big tarpon on fly laidup and moving threw. It just needs to stay warm. STAY WARM!!!

Yes, we had a fish kill but the Everglades and the rest of Southwest Florida seem to be rebounding quickly. Last week Wade Mayberry  had shots at some nice snook and landed five on fly one day. We also caught a big 4lb trout and some gag grouper along with plenty of ladyfish. I also fished around Sanibel with some  clients and on our best day we had 30 good shots at big snook in the 35″+ range and lots of nice redfish. We didn’t get the big snook  to eat our flies but they were there!!!! Tarpon should be showing up any week now and am really looking forward to a fantastic season… Come on down!!! I will get some photos posted soon!!

We estimated over 1,000 snook were present in this small area. The day ended with 4 snook to 30″, 10 redfish and 20 trout. I wish everyday was that easy.
