The redfish have arrived back after Dolly came through and blew them away. The season is a little werd this year because of the storm. we've been catching trout when we're supposed to be catching more reds. However the reds have shown back up and are hitting Berkley Gulp very well.

Tarpon have settled down into their migritory patterns as well. We jumped three on flies this weekend all in the 100 to 150# class only to have them cut off by mackeral.
