Triple Tail are soon to come !!

January is soon to be gone, with it leaving Feb. will bring longer days and hopefully warming trends later in the month. As the water warms the triple tail show up in very large numbers down south and it is one of my favorite fish to target. There are days you will get 20-30 shots a day. Most of the Triple Tail we see are in the 5lbs range, but it’s not uncommon to look down and see them 20 plus lbs. One thing about this fish, that even a smaller fish can be surprising strong, with cool jumps that will skip them along the surface, rod bending drag screaming action ! Triple Tail are the first of the migrating fish to show themselves and after a long winter of redfish it can’t come quick enough. Don’t get me wrong nothing wrong with reds just get a bit tired of chasing them all winter. Things should start heating up in March Just call 912 308 3700 or e mail me if interested. I have included a few shots over the past years. Enjoy !  This is truly some of the most fun sight casting you can ever do !  I promise !
