16 for 21 sounds good right? WRONG! - 3 weeks ago I returned to SW FL to fish tarpon charters and take 5 US Troops fishing for free who had just return from the 28 F-Year War in Afg. Of the 21 days available to fish, 16 were totally blown out. Wind velocity exceeded 20KTS almost daily.

Good News about Tarpon and bad news on WIND - First the good news. The tarpon are here but not the big schools (yet). The bad news. All of my charters (starting today) and running through next Tue will be 20+MPH wind velocity. In other words, it will really suck. If you planning a trip to SW FL, more...

Redfish bite in Estero Bay is top notch - A combination of great tides and weather made for great fishing over the past week. The tides will slow a bit this weekend, but the continued good weather and moderate breezes will keep the bite going and also allow greater access to the nearshore a more...
