My neighbor and I chartered Captain Derrick O'Connell for a deep backcountry trip out of Chokoloskie this morning. One hour travel time up the Turner River, with 30 minutes of it in a tight mangrove tunnel ,we reached our destination. A couple of connecting bays. Captain Derrick said the fishing wasn't its best today. I would have to disagree . We totaled about 20 snuke,2 tarpon and 4 Mayan Ciclids in about 3 hours fishing. The boat ride was like an amusement ride. Bouncing off the mangrove branches and roots while laying on the boat floor. A trip of a lifetime.1st pic my biggest tarpon. 2nd our biggest snuke. 3rd mangrove tunnel.
