I was guessing that the bite actually was taking place after night fall. I resigned myself to the fact it was going to be a long one and staged up a couple of buckets of Mullet. As predicted, it went off. With the sunset totally blacked out, the Mullet left their safety spot from under the Mangroves and headed out into the channel. The Tarpon were waiting. Had to wade through a couple of Bull Sharks, but got the first full mature Tarpon of the season. Next trip I will bring my GoPro light for better visuals.
