Tarpon fishermen arive in Cape Haze

Just as the birds and fish migration patterns are predictable, so too are the migration patterns of the famed Tampa Bay Tarpon tournament fisherman.  Each May the profession fishing guides from Tampa begin to join the local Charlotte Harbor fishermen and others from around the globe to fish the exciting and potentially lucrative Tarpon Tournaments of Boca Grande Pass. 

We have a dozen Cape Haze Resort owner units booked to the fishermen from the Tampa teams who love the convenience and luxury of Cape Haze Resort because the resort has a special parking lot for our guests boats and trailers, and because we are only three minutes from Eldred's boat ramp.

For all of the lousy winter weather, Southwest Florida could not be more pleasant than it is this first week of May.  The sun it out, but not too hot.  The breeze is fresh and not too humid.  I fished Placida pier yesterday and also fished along one of the walls on some Cape Haze property on the Intra-coastal waterway.  We did not have much luck, but we did land a small flounder, which has been a rare catch for us for the past several years.
