Temperatures are back in the upper 70's with light winds. looks like it will be that way for a while.

The last four days we have been finding good numbers of happy tailing permit on the flats, some bonefish, schools of rolling baby tarpon n and full sized laid up tarpon.

Last week Mark Raisler from Montana got 3 juvenile tarpon to eat a toad fly.

Weird weather last week end,,,,, FOG... Impenetrable New England fog... Steven King fog.. Rolling in from the Gulf side. Went fishing with two other guide friends. We made our way into the back with a lot of help from the GPS.. thought even thought the tides were all wrong.. that the baby tarpon would have to roll in the twilight... well they proved us wrong.. But did find a few full size tarpon rolling in a channel. We got one to eat a rapala deep diver.

After checking multiple spots we finally left the fog and headed back ocean side. Seen a couple schools of small bones and finished up looking for tarpon. Found some 6 footers on top in 76 degree water... Spent the last two day throwing flies at laid up tarpon. They liked tan toad flies..
