This is going to be a short report.
All I have been fishing for in the past month has been tarpon. They
should be around in good numbers till early July. After which, the big
schools of fish will break up and they will spread out over the gulf
coast.
Some days we have been getting several
bites a day, and on others, the tarpon run from the flies that we drop
in front of them. Fishing around the full and new moons will get you
tons of shots, but you'll need them to find the one fish that wants a
snack before heading offshore to spawn. Fishing around the quarter moons
typically will get you less shots, but you may get more bites since the
fish are in between spawning runs.
Watch for more and more northbound
fish over the next few weeks. These fish are finished with the spawn and
are heading to their summer feeding grounds. These fish have only one
thing on their brain....food. Drop a fly in front of one of these fish
and get ready for the reel to scream.
