Everglades Tarpon Fishing: SW Florida 2009
Posted under fly fishing news by adminNo other fly fishing destination in North America offers the kind of raw wilderness and pure angling adventure found deep within the confines of Everglades National Park.
The twisted labyrinth of mangrove islands, rivers, creeks, bays, lakes and brackish water ponds offers hard-core fly fishermen angling challenges far beyond the ordinary. During the winter and early spring mmonths, Capts. Bill Faulkner and Kevin Mihailoff ply the farthest reaches of the Everglades in search of trophy snook and resident tarpon often found in places far too remote and too clandestine to be known or remembered by name.
Dissecting the mysterious tannic waters of the Everglades Backcountry in the most technical poling skiffs puts you in places you might never have thought existed in the continental U.S.
Fish for world-record size snook and juvenile tarpon in inches of water — and if you’re lucky — you might just hit one of those calm winter days where hundreds of giant river-dwelling tarpon decide to meander across an expansive bay some 30 miles from the nearest man-made structure of any kind.
The World Angling Crew is currently filing dates for January, February, March, April and May 2009.
