Fishing Biscayne Bay with Capt. Jerry Murphy a little bit of fun fishing! We started the morning in bonefish for about an hour. Jerry landed a nice bone that was 7 pounds. Then we headed out for tarpon and found 5 large tarpon most of the day. Headed back in to look for more bones and found a small permit that just wouldn’t eat.
