Greetings from Tarpon World:
March 24, 2005: They Have Arrived Big Time!!!! Today I fished a half day charter with Jon Ziarnik from Cudjo Key, Florida. I had about an hour to kill while waiting for Jon so I went out to a basin one half mile in front of his house. I Jumped 2 Tarpon both over 100 pounds on two casts and was back to pick up Jon with in 45 minutes.

Jon Ziarnik boarded my skiff at 12:00 noon and had his first Tarpon on the end of his fly line 10 feet in the air by 12:15. On Jon�s first five casts he had 5 tarpon eat his fly, Jumped 3 of them and caught one about 80 pounds.
�� At 3:30 we started back to the dock after Jumping 5 Tarpon and releasing one. We are fishing early in the morning tomorrow, I am sure it will be good. Tarpon Season has started in the Keys, that's for sure!

� I will be fishing for Sailfish at Fins N� Feathers in Guatemala from the 27th to 31st of March. Stay Tuned for fishing reports from The Sailfish School! I will be back Tarpon Fishing April First.

Jake
