7/13/14 Florida Keys Backcountry Tarpon Fishing in July

Another great day here fishing in the florida keys this july.  We started out tarpon fishing.  I caught some fresh mullet on our way back.  One throw and we loaded up with 4 dozen or so nice silver mullet.  Went back to the channels that I’ve been fishing which have been consistent.  We hooked a tarpon in the first 5 minutes.  Ended up catching 3 altogether in about 2 hours, one fish was about 100 lbs good to see a big fish again!  The others were 50-65 lbs.  We ended the day catching a few pilchards and pinfish for bait, and used those to boat about 8 nice snook.
