Tarpon Summer Underway...

Though the recent torrential rains changed the salinity, water clarity and temps for certain Biscayne Bay tarpon schools, the right adjustments- see this blogs' archives- are all it takes to achieve a measure of success. After all, necessity is the mother of invention, whose mother, in turn, is new thought.

One quick hint in a rain blown-out bay is to recognize that the incoming tide will bring warmer, saltier water back into the picture..the closer to an inlet your spot is, the quicker this will take place. More so, the fullest effect will be felt by the fish at high tide when all the saline fluid for that tide will have been restored.

I actually had one morning when I saw tarpon practically every spot I went. Their feeding behavior was very locale-specific- no surprise, really, is it?
