Weeks Summary
We had a solid week of catching Tarpon and Permit. This was despite some strong wind that made casting a challenge. Scott got one Tarpon 120 pounds, which was the largest of the week. Ted landed a 60-pound fish to complete his slam. Not to be outdone, Michael also completed a slam on landing a good tarpon. He ended the week as top rod when he caught his second good-sized permit.
