Guided Tarpon Fly Fishing


Tarpon fishing is without a doubt one of the most exciting fishing experiences in the world. Tarpon are known for their seemingly unstoppable power on the end of a rod...

Fly fishing for tarpon brings a whole new challenge to the game. It takes patients, timing and skill to land a giant tarpon with a fly.

Tarpon fishing in the Lower Keys is best during their annual migration. Typically, this migration takes place April, May and June. These huge fish are often found in 3-8 feet of water and can be seen for long distances. An angler must anticipate and make a cast that the fish will intercept. Experienced and accurate casters catch more tarpon, but a straight cast of 30-40 ft. from the boat is often enough to get the fly in the right place and draw strikes. Most anglers book 3-4 days to ensure the best tarpon fishing experience. On a given day anglers can expect to have many shots at tarpon and a handful of eats... the rest is between you and the tarpon!
