Lots of small summer tarpon around around in the park. Look for them on the outgoing tide in deep spots next to the mangroves. They are feeding on small minnows of various types. Try small clousers of pink and white. You will find snook and redfish near mullet muds. Pole the edges of the muds. My anglers have had lots of shots at big reds and snook. The fly I have using to catch tarpon, snook and redfish has been my mullet fly. Its on my website under fishing "out front" the fly in the middle above the deceiver. A few weeks ago Jerry Noble caught his first redfish on it. It’s the fly I use 90% of the time in the park, also weight a few for special occasions.
Sharks are also a option, a few big bulls and lemons are available with chum in high current areas. Big flys with bite proof leaders work. I like to pole for them and throw flys in inches of water. I am currently working on a new method that doesn’t involve chum but does involve poling for them. I lost my cord to recharge my camera so no pictures this report.
