Highlites of Summer, 2008













As you can see, the fishing has been fantastic!. The 20-30lb redfish have made their eturns to their summer homes. The fishing for the trophy-sized redfish should continue to be productive through September. The smaller 3-10lb redfish have also been very consistent, double-digit days are a very real possibility everyday.

Summer brings variety to the Mosquito Lagoon. Along with the ever-present redfish, sea trout, and black drum, the tapon begin to show in June and will be in the Lagoon until the first good cold front. Calm mornings provide the best opportunities, the tarpon roll best during calm conditions and are easier to locate. Mid-day laid-up tapon are also very possible with the right conditions. In the Mosquito Lagoon you may not have Keys' numbers of fish, but if you see five laid-up fish and make good presentations to them, all five should eat. Most of the Lagoon tarpon are 40-70lbs, but there are plenty of fish well into the double-digits.

The pictures are proof! Many guides advertise that they are "fly fishing guides." Look at their fishing reports, just how many fish are the "catching" on fly?

Ask a guide if he/she works out of a fly shop and if so, give them a call and ask for a referral. Fly shops are a great place to search for a referral, they work very closely with their guides and know that it is at their best interest to refer quality fly fishing guides. The guides that they refer reflect on their shop and they realize that!
