These sweltering days of late July, August and September are thought of as the "Dog Days", but I prefer to think of them as the "Tarpon Days". We have a great tarpon fishery in and around Apalachicola, that doesn't receive much pressure...at least the areas that I fish. We fished 4 days last week and we saw one other boat tarpon fishing!
Here's a nice account of 3 days from last week. Jim & Tim's Tarpon Trip
Great pictures Capt. Ron... looks like so much fun. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's fun, but you better be prepared to sweat!
ReplyDeleteRon, thanks again for the great Tarpon trip, Jim and I can't stop talking about it and we look forward to a return trip to chase the silver giants of Apalachicola. I will continue to give lessons to Jim about the care of your equipment and the proper method to catch a Tarpon.

Thanks Tim...I know that you will continue to work with Jim on the nuances of hooking tarpon and not abusing the tackle. Hope to see you soon!
