Ok, this is my part and Tom will add to this report. I got some TINY and WEAK shrimp, there we no more, also some crabs for Tom. So, we fished the usual spot, bait was a bit hard to come by at first, I waied for the tide to turn, as it is my addiction now! So, we did go down there and I finally got my tarpon pic! He was tiny but left his mark on my thumb! Tom managed to nail a small snook, it was great, the shrimp were most dead, so it was not long before we went back to our regular spot. I remember getting some more bait, and then passing out, dunno what happened during the night, I was sleeping... Sleeping on the bridge is heavenly! Anyway, in the morning we had a few bites, and the guys nailed some snapper, some goliath groupers THEY ARE THICK!!! Yellows and grovers, and I set out a small greenie dead, and nailed a small spanish mack, ON THE BOTTOM! Anyway, it gets too hot to be down there after 11, so we left, again Tom will add anything I missed!!! It was great fishing with my buddies and as always, will fish with them anytime!
BF adds:
It was a bit slow with a good amount of seaweed coming through alot of the time we were there, I may have had one Permit bite firts thing this morning but I was late getting to my pole.
We had a couple of nice size fish meet the Barracuda that was waiting on a lazy dinner. I really mean nice size fish it is a shame the Cuda got them, I had two Pics of Tarpon one of Dave and one of me but for some reason they did not come out.
The goliaths were 11 1/2 pound and the other was around 9 lbs
I did get alot of Mangroves and most were keepers but just, so let them go, Only thing I kept and gave to Sword was a keeper Yellowtail.
Oh, caught a few Muttons all were 15 inches
Tightlines, BF
