The fishing down in Everglades National Park has been nothing short of epic. Lots of medium tarpon, ranging from 20-40 pounds, eating small fry bait on the Gulf Coast. They have been very willing to eat a fly or a plug. We have been getting them on flies almost every trip out. Constantly putting the…
South Florida has some of the most diverse fisheries in the entire country. Probably why it is considered to be the fishing capital of of the world. You can fish offshore, inshore, and in the backcountry of the Florida Everglades. With that being said, it is very important to make the most of your fishing…
It has been a very rainy season and that is about all you can ask for in the Everglades. Keeping the Everglades hydrated is the most important thing for the entire ecosystem. Keeping the salinity levels down is very important to the grass flats and all of Florida Bay. In the backcountry, the rain keeps…

Well it has been a very interesting March in South Florida. Typically this time of year is full blown tarpon season in the Everglades , but the unseasonal cold fronts keep coming and pushing the fish out of the Everglades. We have had some warm days this month and have had some good tarpon action…
What a difference a cold front makes on these fish. I tell people all the time, tarpon are very sensitive to any weather, especially cold weather. Last week we had lots of hungry tarpon around and hooked a bunch of fly and spin. This past week a cold front blew through and completely shut down…
We have had some crazy weather over the last few weeks. Early this month it was extremely cold and windy and now it feels like the middle of spring. With the warm weather, the big tarpon have pushed into the backcountry. This time of year we hook some of the biggest tarpon of the year.…
