Trip Summary

Got out for a fun day with my buddy Dylan and our friend Barry. We did some filming and had an awesome day! We caught some snook in the backcountry fishing around some ditches in the everglades. Barry also got a nice juvenile tarpon and some good size mangrove snappers. Later in the day we ran back to Islamorada and realoaded on Live Bait and headed offshore for the afternoon. We had a few sailfish up but didn't get tight on them though we did catch a couple monster yellow jacks which was awesome! Not every day you can get offshore in an 18 foot skiff for sure, but we've had calm weather which has given us some opportunities! That's what I love about Islamorada is the diversity.

Got on some tarpon the other afternoon. The evening trips are still a good bet. Beat the heat and be out for the sunset period where they often fire up. These local tarpon are here all through the summer and fall until it gets cold. And we often are fishing mahi carcasses which makes for easy bait to get so that takes the worry of having bait off the table. Give me a shout lets go catching!

Got out for a full day but we split it in half which i sometimes do this time of year. We had tarpon action in the morning and then again in the evening. Caught a couple for the day and had a few more shots all staying within a few miles. July should remain good for tarpon and last minute availability is a little better. Shoot me a DM if you want to rangle with the silver king!

Still getting after the tarpon here in Islamorada. We should continue having decent fishing through July and who knows maybe into september or October. It was kind of a slow start this season so were hoping the later season will continue to produce. Evening trip are a good option and can be booked short notice often ad we arent super busy so cherry pick your conditions!
