fished with long time client Duane and his friend Lee. We left Key west at 7am and headed west in search of tarpon. We found plenty of tarpon cruising the flat but we could not put the crab in the right place so we came up empty. I tried to make sight fishing easy and went in search of bonefish, unfortunately I could not find any. I hit another flat and got a few shots at both tarpon and permit but just like earlier we could not put the bait in the right spot. I hit another spot for bonefish but once again could not find any so I headed home empty handed.

My clients told their friends at the dock that we had a tough day of flats fishing. My clients had 30 shots at tarpon and permit, that is not a tough day of fishing that is a bad day of angling.
