Am planning to head to southern Florida and the Keys in either late March or early April of 2016 with the intent of trying to fulfill my dream of catching a tarpon, but am also interested in shark. Given we will be flying there, I've resigned myself to the fact we will need to hire a guide which is something I've never done before. Any suggestions on places to go or reputable guides that won't cost me an arm and a leg? Also, is there a certain time within the months of March and April that would give the best odds of catching a tarpon?

Thanks for any advice you are willing to share and if you prefer to do so via private message, that is fine.
