Important Tarpon Trip Notes
- Targeting tarpon with artificials most days; summer we use more live bait.
- Heavy baitcasting and spinning gear. Please request LH baitcasters in advance.
- Launch location TBD — weather, migration, and tides affect travel plans. Every launch is within 40 mins of Bokeelia.
- For serious anglers, we recommend multiple days — too many variables (wind, rain, cold) to depend on just 1 day.
- Parties of 3–4 will have more limited fishing time per angler as only one person fishes at a time for trophy fish.
- Cash or check preferred. Credit cards accepted at 3.5% fee.
- All bookings held with a credit card. No-shows or cancellations within 7 days charged in full.
