EN FUEGO!


The "season" kicked off in mid February and fishing became constant by mid March. Catching
 GiantTarpon "off season is our forte. In fact, in most years we catch them 9-12 months out of the year!
The fish gods have given some of the best conditions that we've seen in nearly 20 years.

 The water is gin clear qithwith our trademarked emerald green tint. 
Rain has been almost nonexistent. Bait--particularly the shrimp-- have been abundant.
 Clean water and copious amounts of bait mean one thing – we have a  bountiful number of tarpon
 not seen in the past 20 years. 

COVID-19 has hit the entertainment business hard, especially in Florida where tourism is our state's
 primary industry. By a Executive Order from the Governor of Florida,- fishing is and has been listed
 as an "essential activity". We are open! We have remained opened throughout the pandemic and
 follow all of the CDC.. 

With closed borders and the airline industry in disarray, - many of our clients have been forced to
 postpone their trips. That “bites” for us, but  opens up a great opportunity for others to take advantage
 of our biting fishery. Dates that are normally booked 6-12 months in advance are now available on
 short notice. Give us a call, text or email and let's see if we can get it done.

With a light schedule, I've been venturing out nearshore to fish permit and Goliath groupers. Add in the GiantTarpon and an "Extreme Adventure" is complete. 
Captain McCue is a continuous 34- year full time fishing guide. Outside of the Marine Corps, 
professional guiding is what he has done for his entire career. He is in the top 5 most winningest 
 tournament tarpon guides in the state with over $350,000 in tournament earnings. I He has 
successfully guided 8 IGFA records. 
 Capt. Robert McCue may not be the best tarpon fisherman on the planet. We've got plenty of those. 
He is, however, the most diversified and multi-dimensional tarpon fisherman around.
  He will  fish day, night, sunset, sunrise, the tides, and knows where to go to catch tarpon almost
 year-round. I He can fish the beaches, passes, rivers, bays and sounds. IHe uses live bait, dead bait
, plugs and , flies, and his gear can be --spinning, -conventional-baitcasters,or  fly rod. He has what
 you need to catch your tarpon. Conditions change daily and so do the fish. Don't get caught on a
  "best" one dimensional tarpon charter. 

tons of images--too many to get in this blog. Feel free to text me any time for the most recent catches. 

Now with time on my hands, -I'll try to keep the blog going regularly. 

Hemingway wrote "Anyone can catch fish in May. " Keep in mind, tarpon "season" runs until the first 
cold fronts of November and sometimes even longer.

Screaming Drags and Tired Arms!
