Today we were fishing off east cape sable out west of flamingo in everglades national park. Caught the mullet this morning and set up. Couple hours of falling tide left. Not red hot action but we got a couple goliath groupers and then hooked into a nice 50 lb tarpon that we landed after 20 minutes. After that we bent the light rods and got some dinner, and had action with other sharks and a cobia to finish the day. August tarpon fishing in islamorada is still possible, getting out early is always helpful! My departures are typically 6 AM in the summer time.

Hello my name is Capt. Rick Stanczyk and welcome to my website! I’m a fishing guide in the fabulous Florida Keys, Islamorada to be specific. Tarpon are the species I spend a lot of time fishing for and they are my passion. I've stepped away from full time guiding myself though I still take a handful of trips short notice. Though I have a team of young talented guides who I've been training that are available for tarpon charters, so please get in touch if you want to go fishing!
