Islamorada Finale

Patty and I headed to the Keys to get the boat and do some fishing last weekend. We hit the flats on Saturday and caught and released a dozen lemon and bonnet head sharks while sight fishing. One of those was on the fly. We changed locations and jumped three big tarpon. Unfortunately, all three got away, but that is how tarpon fishing goes some times. Pro Tip: Tide matters. Sometimes fish only bite over a small portion of the tide. All of our tarpon bites over two days came during the same 20-30 minute portion of the tide.
