Sight Fishing Islamorada

Darryl, John, and I hit the flats around Islamorada. We were sight fishing in shallow water for sharks. We ended up catching and releasing around ten lemon and bonnet head sharks to about fifty pounds on light tackle. We then headed into the backcountry and caught more speckled trout than we could count plus a bunch of ladyfish. We headed in and ran across a mini blitz of big jacks and we pulled a ten pound jack out of that. We proceeded to the bridges from there and caught more big jacks and snappers. At sunset, we hooked a tarpon but ended up pulling the hook. It was a beautiful day with lots of nice fish.
