Overall, it was a great week on the water. We did experience another small cold front, which slowed the action down slightly, but our anglers still had a wonderful time out on the flats.
In terms of catches, we had many bonefish landed, several tarpons, and plenty of permit in the area. We also saw a lot of success with snook, along with various other species, including barracuda, snapper, and some tripletail.
