Seeing Fish
Developing the necessary skills to see fish is an essential part of fishing, especially when fishing the flats—whether they be ocean or lake flats, or just smooth flowing areas in streams. One watches for any movement, a broken surface, shadows, or just “nervous” water. My friend, Capt. Jake Jordan, sent these shots of tarpon. His web site (see link at right) is a good study on fish behavior as well as many heart-stopping shots of big fish being played well.
Yes, those are all tarpon (hint: it's a daisy chain)
