Flamingo - Saltwater Fishing Report

The night time baby tarpon fishing continues to be my best bet. We're managing to beat the heat and the afternoon storms while fishing close to home. Tarpon up to about 30lbs are still quite active in the urban portion of the Bay.

On Sunday night my angler stuck 6 on flies, all at close quarters. The fish did most of the releasing but not without some spectacular acrobatics. We only saw one other boat tarpon fishing the entire evening.

Summer fishing is like that most nights. Now that the mini-season for lobster is here I expect the tarpon to get kind of lonely most nights... Thank heavens tarpon don't hand out where the bugs do!
