The ocean has been favorable for both sailfish and tarpon.

The last three days we have been leaving the port at 3:30 fishing for sailfish till the sun starts to go down then switching over for tarpon. We are 4 for 7 on sailfish and have landed over 9 tarpon. The bait migration is strong bringing in new fish daily. The kingfish also have been eating well. I have some more inshore trips scheduled lets see what happens.
