Huge Snook, photo by Matt Hawksley.
Hawksley says, “Using only artificials we have been able to land quite a few lunkers this summer and all of them right off Tarpon Bay Beach on Sanibel - no boat or live bait needed. We've caught many smaller snook in the canals and passes as well which is a great sign, but the 40-plus inch monsters seem to be out cruising the beaches in droves.”" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="set_6">

Standup Redfish, photo by Patrick "Tupat" Eichstaedt.
“This particular image is a screen shot from a GoPro Hero4 HD video clip,” says pro photographer and surfer Patrick "Tupat" Eichstaedt. “When David caught this red I wanted to try and capture this moment, but I knew it would be difficult without shooting it in video mode. Fishing was insane. I myself caught 8 different species of fish and David caught his fair share as well. This image is a very unique perspective and SUP fishing is the way to go for getting as close to the catch as possible.” @therealtupat " class="thickbox no_icon" rel="set_6">

What determines tarpon fishing success? Casting distance and fly selection are secondary and tertiary to a simple function of line management: You have a fly ready to cast, enough line outside the rod tip, and the nerve to make your delivery with minimal fuss." class="thickbox no_icon" rel="set_6">
