Live Baiting and Jumping Tarpon
Finding the fish is sometimes as easy as finding their food source and then looking for the tail-tale signs that a great charter captain knows to look for.
Tarpon can be easy to find because they'll roll on the surface showing their dorsal fin, sides and backs as they gulp air and feed. Once you find the tarpon the best way to hook up is with a live bait.
Once hooked up a tarpon will jump... and jump, again and again. This small tarpon pictured took about fifteen minutes to bring and we briefly boated the fish to take a photograph and releasing. Beach
