Jacks are pound per pound the strongest fish inshore. They school in the summer months and can be found almost anywhere. We catch them on live and artificial baits. Jacks will attack smaller schools of bait from the surface. The surface briefly erupts in an area about 30 feet in diameter.
Jacks are also fun to catch on the fly rod but are poor table fare.
The Sliver King is caught from May till August. Tarpon schools can be small or large and we sight fish for them on the beach. These fish range from 50-150 pounds and can be seen rolling along the water surface in water depths from 5 to 25 feet. We use live crabs, bait fish and hand - tied flies for bait. The awesome Sliver King is appropriately named.
