Tarpon Poised to Run!

Tarpon are stacking up at the deep water reefs and ready to invade the flats when the winds subside and shift into the SE for an extended period of time. We are hooking a few here and there on Atlantic and Gulf side flats. channels and basins, but the action is sporadic.Permit have shown in larger numbers than expected during the past few days signaling an early return or just a break from their usual spawning run in April.>Now is a good time to plan a summer fishing trip! Our Father-Son Key West Flats Fishing Camps are scheduled for late June, July, August and September.
