Saltwater On The Brain! Air Tarpon Shots and Feeding Frenzies

Saltwater Fishing Here I Come, The Countdown is On For Tampa
Pics from Saltwater Experience

Okay most of you know I live far, far away from any Saltwater. That can be good or in most cases bad. If I lived in Florida (close call last year) I would be on the water daily -not like my addiction now of freshwater with countless days out in the Rockies so my beach problem would probably surpass a few hundred days.

Thanks to friends who live down that way and soon to be another close pal from Alaska heading that way to the Keys, my desire to visit will ever so slightly increase. A few trips a year chasing my favorite Saltwater species is sweet but with more friends heading that way, my skymiles may be increasing more and more. Yes I do have family down in Florida so that does help, but having friends with flats boats and yellowtail 30 footers also pays huge dividends! Glad to see the show renewing and Tom is getting the fly rod out more again for some Silver Kings.

Boca Grande Bound Baby!

Our Bailout Boca Trip is Almost Here!
My Saltwater Section on FFA

For those that have never Saltwater fished in Florida or better yet, Tarpon fished on a fly before....it's the Shizzle of Fly Fishing and what most Saltwater Fly addicts aspire for. Sure a Permy is the one Ghost fish to go after but nothing is more exciting to see take a fly, jump over and over and Yes, one that get's to the boat about 2 in 10x so Good Luck!

Next week we're off to Chase a few and the 5 of us can't wait. When you have a fishaholic from Alaska, Bozeman, Atlanta and a few from Denver, you know the Silvers better watchout!

I think my 8weights, 10 weights and 12 weights should be enough for some Tarpon and a few hefty Snook! That and 4 fly boxes filled with about 150 Salt flies, hey you can never have enough flies!
