Hire a better guide than the last one you used on the Rainy River.

I will be in Florida all next week, (Count-Em, 7-DAYS), mostly in Tampa Bay around Anna Marie Island fishing for Snook, Sea Trout, Red Fish, King Fish, Jacks, Bonnitas, Barracuda, Bull Sharks, ect...

A couple of those days will be spent in Boca-Grande Pass targeting Tarpon only...

At least the fish in the ocean are always hungry and will hit just about anything, not like these Muskies...

Perfect timing for Boca Grande! Call Bo Johnson from Tenacity Guide Service. One of the most hard core dudes I've ever met!

One of the many Tarpon we hooked last week...

Most were taken by sharks...

The last pic reveals about a seven to eight foot Bull Shark on the prowl up close and personal...

Very cool. Looks like you had a great experience. Who did you end up going out with?

It was another epic trip...

We weren't sure if we could top last year...

This year did not disappoint...

I made the local news by releasing this monster 45" Snook...

For the Tarpon fishing at Boca Grande, we went with Captain Mark Dillingham.

For the inshore and offshore fishing near Anna Maria Island, we were with Captain Shawn Crawford.
