Isla Blanca on the Fly

[trout masterson]

Went down to Cancun, Mexico to get married and had one day to book a trip before all the craziness began. My brother and I went to Isla Blanca on an eight hour trip with Pesca Maya. Our guide picked us up at the resort at 5:30am and we were on the water by 6:40am. We started the morning off targeting baby Tarpon in the shallow mangroves -- brought in 2 and jumped 3. We finished the day chasin' Bones and Permit. I caught two Bones, but didn't have any shots at a Permit.

Man how do you even land those stupid Tarpon? They're mouths are just so tough if you manage to stick them their rough mouths usually saw you off. Awesome report, thanks for sharing.
