Still doing well on the snook in the backcountry of Everglades National Park. First 2 pics are from a father and son from Nashville. Next 3 were 3 of the 4 snook from the ABC Islamorada Backcountry Tournament.

The Black-fin Tuna have moved into town and the bite has been red hot! Catching most fish by early morning with most bites at first light.
Snook season is here and we are seeing tons of Snook across the shallow flats and along several mangrove islands.
The month is looking very calm and filled with opportunities to catch some real nice fish!
