Had Mike and his daughter Catherine out for a full day today. Fishing was a little tough the water got chilly after the high winds and rain yesterday. Seems to have made everything not want to bite great. We fished hard for a coupe hours in the backcountry channels. Saw a few fish roll. Finally hooked up a nice 80 lb tarpon that father and daughter got to land together. We had a couple black tips as well. After that we went back around town in Islamorada. We found a few fish in one of the channels, and had a couple ‘cheap shots’ where they flashed the baits but turned away from eating them at the last second. Though we did catch some big 10-15 lb jack crevelles and a couple big nurse sharks which was fun and kept us busy for the last hour and a half. 1 for 1.
