Fishing
Description
I specialize in Tarpon Fishing, Live bait and artificials bring the thrill of these giant tarpon alive. There is nothing like seeing a hungry Tarpon chase down a top water plug. The excitement of the hooking a 6 foot 150+ pound Silver King (Tarpon) and having him put on an unforgettable aerial show with heart stopping jumps is unforgettable. These Tarpon are plentiful early spring thru mid-summer in Boca Grande, Fort Myers or Cape Coral and can be found throughout Charlotte Harbor well into September. Late season Tarpon Fishing begins after the major spawn is over, when the tarpon flood the Charlotte Harbor in post spawn. The action switches and the tarpon fishing charters center around foraging tarpon located in Charlotte Harbor, this is my favorite time to fish and can be the most productive. Charlotte Harbor is located mins from Fort Myers and Cape Coarl and is connected to Boca Grande Pass.
