Saltwater Experience S17E07: Sunrise to Sunset

Sunrise to Sunset

Have you ever wanted to fish from sun-up to sundown? Saltwater Experience television is here to show you how it's down. For this episode, captains Rich Tudor and Tom Rowland don't have a guest or guide. Instead, they pull a classic "Sunrise to Sunset" fishing marathon in their Yellowfin boat. As Rowland points out during the intro, these extra-long outings hasten an angler's learning curve. Circumstances are constantly evolving — what fish are biting, what they're biting on, the weather, etc. — and must adapt on the fly to succeed.

Ride along for a condensed version of this all-day adventure in the Middle Florida Keys. The Saltwater Experience begins casting for baby tarpon at the crack of dawn. During the high noon hours, they change gears and go after some permit fish. Then as the sun starts to set, they go after large adult tarpon as they start to feed. Along the way, they provide trailer maintenance tips and other advice.
