Tarpon Fishing – Boca Grande & Charlotte Harbor

 

 

There’s nothing like the thrill of tarpon season! From April through September, thousands of these silver giants migrate through Boca Grande Pass, earning it the nickname “Tarpon Capital of the World.”

 

Hooking into a tarpon — or “Silver King” — is an experience you’ll never forget. When one explodes out of the water, your heart will race and your adrenaline will kick in. Whether it’s your first tarpon or your fiftieth, I’ll help you land the catch of a lifetime.

Looking for a relaxing day on the water without the rods and reels? Take a 3-hour sightseeing tour around Charlotte Harbor or plan a trip to Cayo Costa or Cabbage Key for lunch or dinner. It’s a great way to explore Florida’s hidden coastal gems and spot dolphins, manatees, and sea birds along the way.
