David Holifield with a nice tarpon he caught and released this past week.
Tarpon are heating up along the beaches this week with schools showing more and more. David Holifield of Myakka City got on the board for the 88th Annual Tarpon Tournament this week with a nice fish caught on a crab.
Also, this week saw Sam Pass of Tampa catch a nice tarpon in the bay on light tackle with a shrimp. The fish put up a great fight with several spectacular jumps. Speckled trout and Spanish mackerel are still hot in the bay with bluefish and ladyfish also in the mix.
Remember, the best time to go fishing is when you can and be sure to save some for seed!
