Kings have arrived off Anna maria

The kingfish migration has started right on schedule. A couple of cold fronts have pushed the kings our way. Some kings have been up to 35 pounds but most are nice schoolers from 8-15 pounds. A few bonus tarpon and blacktip sharks are mixed in the big bait schools so keep some heavier tackle ready with larger baits. We had 3 tarpon to the boat last week in the 100 pound class. Some of the blacktips were in the 60 - 80 pound class.
