About two weeks ago, I
was in western Puerto Rico.
I had set up a charter with
Captain Francisco Rosario.
My wife joined me. We had a
great time. I caught my
first tarpon on fly. It was
not a big tarpon, but it was
a tarpon...by the way,
caught it on a clouser.
You know that I have
chartered a lot of guides
over the past 7-8 years.
Captain Rosario is one of
the top three guides I have
ever hired. First, he is the
only guide I have ever
engaged who caught bait
before going out on the
charter. How uniqe..instead
of wasting an hour catching
bait, he was ready to go at
the dock. While he is very
accomplished with fly
fishing, he does a lot of
light tackle with bait.
Since my wife was with me
and I do the light tackle
thing as well, I was glad we
were using everything
available. Second, he always
had at least two poles out
with bait. He was
aggressively creating
opportunities to catch fish.
Thats what I wanted, on
vacation. My wife came along
for her first charter. She
caught two fish, including a
small tarpon. She had a
great trip...which bodes
well for future charters,
budget or no. Third, he
moved around. We fished open
water off a point for
tarpon, followed up with
fisherman he knew who were
changing bait, fished the
mangroves of a national park
for snook and tarpon, and
finished with some docks
where the tarpon and snook
hung out. Fourth, he had a
great personality. Finally,
rates were very reasonable.
Captain Rosario operates
Light Tackle Adventures,
Boqueron Bay and Cabo Rojo's
in Southwest Puerto Rico.
His phone number is 787-547-
7380 and his email is
tarponhombre@yahoo.com . I
get him by just putting his
name in google. He has a
nice web
site.www.lighttackleadventure
