Tarpon Facts
Read More...Often they can be seen daisy chaining offshore, swimming in large group circles to spawn.
Best Tarpon Bait: Tarpon are big predatory fish that feed on small fish and crustaceans, so live bait fishing is perfect for landing these trophy fish in deeper waters. They love pinfish, blue crabs and mullet. In flats and backcountry lakes, fly and light spin tackle fishing is a fantastic, fun experience to land your monster. Best Tarpon Season: The best fishing season lasts from late spring to mid-summer when the tarpon follow huge schools of mullet and stay to spawn. These migration patterns from the deep gulf to the reefs and back make for spectacular fishing events. In off-season, iOutdoor expert tarpon trackers can find the silver king in bays, rivers and backcountry lakes. The tarpon has the ability to gulp air from the surface and can even be found in fresh water. |
