Orlando Florida Saltwater Guide Report

The past couple days the Tarpon have slowed down a little on the beach. Today my client Gerry from the UK hooked two BIG TARPON in the 150 LB class.One jumped off behind the boat after just a few minutes and the other Gerry fought for 30 minutes before the fish wore through the 80 # mono leader.To say we were sick in an understatement. So close to a world class Tarpon that was fought to perfection on 30 LB Class Tackle. Gerry also caught 5 Black Tip Sharks to 40 LBS.After spending three hours two miles off the beach the wind picked up to 15 MPH from the South and the seas started building to 3 ft.I ask Gerry if he was interested in catching Redfish and he said we didn't have Redfish in Florida and laughed. He told me he had hired two different Redfish Guides from the Orlando Area the past three weeks and has not seen a Redfish.Well it didn't take long to prove to Gerry we do have Redfish on the East Coast of Florida. We fished for Redfish for about 90 minutes and Jerry caught 4 Redfish up to 18 pounds and lost two other that were much bigger.All and all it was a great day on the water with a great client.I have this Friday the 16th open and the 19th 20th 21st 22nd 26th 27th of Oct open.
