Let 'em go!

It takes a tarpon up to 20 years to reach 100 LBS and they can live to be 60. A fish like this is hard to replace, please release your tarpon and help take care of this incredible fishery.

Treat them right

Please do not lift a tarpon out of the water or drag the tarpon into the
boat for a picture, it will kill it!

Please release your tarpon
This is a good way to photograph your tarpon. A tarpon kept in the water and released after a quick photo will live to fight another day.

Current fuel prices have driven costs for these trips up to a point we feel we can do a better job for you with our mixed bag bridge trip.

 

Shark fishing

12 species from 20 to 1000 lbs.
Exciting on light tackle and great fun to yank on monsters with heavy tackle.
