For those who are wondering if it is still worth while trying for tarpon in the evening, the answer is a big YES!! The biggest deterrent are the afternoon rain storms. Today it rained all afternoon. When it came time to go tarpon fishing, the weather cleared and we had wonderful weather the entire evening. Live crabs fished on the south side at Government Cut had us at 1 for 3 before we decided to try the north side. On our second drift, we hooked up and released a tarpon before heading in. The 70 and 90 pound fish were the biggest that Greg from Michigan had ever caught. He was amazed at their size, strength, and endurance and said he could get use to saltwater fishing very quickly.<br><br>Captain Dave Kostyo<br>Knot Nancy Fishing Charters<br>305 620-5896 Charter<br>305 732-2628 Beeper<br>www.rnfl.com/knotnancy<br>nkostyo@bellsouth.net<br><br>
