Gasparilla Island, FL …visibility on the flats sucks..the big fish seem to be moving off to avoid Tropical Storm Andrea. Like my eighth-grade girlfriend of the same name, the storm is being a little bit of a tease.The main body of the storm isn’t quite here yet, and there are black water ponds, canals and backcountry creeks loaded with a veritable brackish water cornucopia. A 6wt and baby tarpon explosions sounds perfect.

Capt. Cole “Big Daddy” Fairbanks usually puts his clients on much bigger tarpon. But when Steve showed up he feared a big boy might break Steve. Steve Is thankful.
