Early Snook

by WreckTangle | Jun 21, 2026 | Boca Grande fishing report, Charlotte Harbor fishing report, Snook, Tarpon

Typically, at first light, I like to post up along the upper east side of the harbor on the outside edge of the mangroves and just look for rolling tarpon. I’ve seen a few scattered but I believe we need some rain to bring more out of the canals and rivers. So, before...

Hot and dry conditions

by WreckTangle | Jun 3, 2026 | Boca Grande fishing report, Charlotte Harbor fishing report, Redfish, Snook, Spotted Sea Trout, Tarpon

As we begin June, it’s been really dry and just about all S.W. Florida is experiencing drought conditions. As a result, the water on the flats along upper east side where I’ve been spending most of my time are clear. This can be opportunistic for sight fishing but it...

Back at the bench

by WreckTangle | Nov 29, 2025 | Boca Grande fishing report, Charlotte Harbor fishing report, Fishing Reports, Redfish, Snook, Spotted Sea Trout

Ok, well it’s been a bit on the cool and windy side the last few days as we just had another front blow through. On a positive not, it’s given me a chance to think and work on an issue thats been giving me a few problems. That would be the eyes on my flies. Just a...
The eyes have it

The eyes have it

by WreckTangle | Nov 9, 2025 | Boca Grande fishing report, Charlotte Harbor fishing report, Fishing Reports, Redfish, Snook, Spotted Sea Trout, Tarpon

For me, except for a couple exceptions, putting eyes on my flies can be somewhat problematic. Maybe not problematic, but time consuming for sure. So, it has kind of made me ask do they make any difference? Well, to make a long story short, yes they do. In fact, eyes...
