This Week's Summary:

Last week, fishing improved with more favorable weather conditions. Bonefish were around in good numbers, and Tarpon were rolling in a number of locations. We enjoyed the company of a great Father and Daughter team this week. Gordon & Meris McHaney both caught really good Tarpon of around 70 Lbs with Capt. Cesar. Meris also took a beautiful Permit of 20 Lbs. Sadly, the lodge has now closed due to Covid-19. The silver lining is the fact that our fishery will be rested, and all the fishing pressure will be off. When we reopen, we expect an absolute ding dong kickoff !!
