New 2017 St. Peterburg Tarpon Fly Fishing Video

2017 Tampa Bay Fly Fishing

The 2017 Tampa Bay Fly Fishing season is almost over. Please join me here, for what ‘A Guide’s Day Off‘ actually looks like. Now, even though you are probably watching this in the comfort of an air conditioned space, maybe even with your feet up and also enjoying a nice, cold drink by your side. In reality for us, it finally got hot, much later in our tarpon season than usual. As you will see here, while I am fighting the tarpon here, we are fishing in a heat index of approximately 103 degrees, a good reason to bust the fish off early and not go for the usual face grab, a typical move which would have increased the stress level dangerously for this fish. Enjoy, please feel free to let me know how you like this video, maybe I can keep making them if possible.

 

Here’s a look at Captain Russ and friend, guide Captain Dave Dant. Captain Russ Shirley of Salty Fly Charters. Dates still available for May, June & July 2018. Call 727-459-3896 or email: saltyflycharters@gmail.com
