Tarpon, Snook, Redfish and more! The tarpon fishing was great until high winds made the offshore waters of the 10,000 Islands mud. March was producing good numbers of tarpon over 100 pounds every day up until April 6th when the weather went to crap. Even then the fishing was good with good numbers of snook and redfish and jack crevelle hitting sardines on the outside points and cuts. We landed snook of 15 and 22 pounds this week fishing south of Marco Island. We also caught a few redfish over 30 inches. Most of the jacks were in the 4-6 pound range. I am living in Everglades National Park until May 15th and I don't have internet access so I might not be able to update for quite a while. Also, it will be best to contact me by my cell phone at 941-628-4247. The forcast for the next few week should be as good as it is now. Go for tarpon when the winds are calm and fall back to snook and redfish when the weather isn't so good.

Tight Lines,
