TARPON F.A.Q.
Tarpon season generally begins mid Apriland lasts through August.
Yes! Tarpon are large and exciting to catch. The whole family becomes part of the battle and it’s great for kids too.
Large predators migrate along with the massive tarpon schools. It’s common to see large bull sharks and even the possibility to see a great hammerhead shark!
Many types of bait work well for tarpon. They are opportunistic feeders, but small crabs and live bait fish are the most popular. Lure or fly fishing is also a possibility when conditions are right.
If possible, weekdays are best with less boat traffic and crowding. Weekends can be especially busy, but Capt. Andy will do his best to make a memorable day tarpon fish any day of the week!
