[font "Arial"][size 2]Fishing offshore has been good. Inshore, the tarpon fishing at Government Cut has exploded.[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2][/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Sunday, the goal during our day trip was to catch sailfish. We started by catching pilchards and then herring. Our first drift was made at the Monument Buoy in 140'. When we reached 132' about 10 minutes later, the bow flatline got hit and we had our first sailfish. Five minutes after putting out the baits again, we got the second sailfish. For the remainder of the day we caught bonito, saw about a half dozen free jumping sailfish, and our baits got attacked by 4 Gannets.[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2][/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Sunday night at Government Cut was nothing short of phenomenal. We had some type of action on every drift. Tarpon were exploding all around us. Jim Lefevre from Stewart, FL had one tremendous workout as we had 10 fish on and landed and released 8. We were only able to count 7 toward the MET Fishing Tournament because one of the tarpon (110 pounds) ate both baits I had out. The fish ranged in size from 70-150 pounds.[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2][/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Monday night, it was back to Government cut for more tarpon action. Once again they were exploding on the surface. Every drift resulted in a hook up. First time tarpon anglers Todd Sandoval and his friend Jeff, both from Miami, were 5 for 5. I was watching the storm activity building to the west of us. A quick check of the weather channel had us listening to a several thunderstorm alert. We were extremely happy with our results for the evening and we decided to head in before the weather closed in on us. As I rounded the jetty to run back on the inside, we saw a wall of water heading our way. We made it to the 5th street bridge just as the rain, wind, and lightning hit us. We sat it out under the bridge and then had a very pleasant ride back to Spinnaker Marina.[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2][/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Now is the time to book a tarpon charter to get in on the HOT HOT action. Give me a call, I have a few opening. Don't miss out on the action.[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2][/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Captain Dave Kostyo[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]Knot Nancy Fishing Charters[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]305 620-5896 Charter[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][size 2]305 732-2628 Beeper[/size][/font] [font "Arial"][#0000ff][size 2][url "http://www.knotnancy.com"]www.knotnancy.com[/url][/size][/#0000ff][/font] [font "Arial"][#0000ff][size 2][url "mailto:nkostyo@bellsouth.net"]nkostyo@bellsouth.net[/url][/size][/#0000ff][/font]
