Tarpon time in the Florida Keys... My favorite time of the year.... The weather and the fishing has been good.. Water temperatures are in the mid 80's.. Tarpon are in the back country basins, channels and channel edges.. We are on the beginning of the migration.. One day they are every were.. next day they are scarce.. it has been a yo yo the last couple of weeks.. Depending on weather conditions... But even on the scarce days we are finding some in most of the places we look.. Been finding schools of juvenile tarpon in some of the places we look for large tarpon.. There are stil some permit on the flats... But soon most of them will be heading of shore to spawn.. They will be back In June.
