A Lull In The Tarpon Action?

Tarpon fishing showed a dramatic slow down on Saturday evening. Having not fished on Sunday evening and not knowing if the slow down was continuing, Jorge Rodriguez, Robert Fernandez, and I left Spinnaker Marina at 5 PM to catch some tarpon at Haulover Inlet.

A light SE wind had us using floats for a part of the evening. The live shrimp on the P170 7/0 circle hooks from Eagle Claw were doing their part. The tide was incoming most all evening. Everything seemed perfect for some fast and furious tarpon action. We went 5 for 5 on LADYFISH that is!! As the saying goes, "The tarpon have left the Inlet & Beach area", atleast for Monday evening.

I'll be fishing for tarpon again on Wednesday evening. If the slow down continues, then it will be time to make the run to Government Cut. Check my report on late Wednesday night for the up to date information on the tarpon action.
