Tarpon/Nearshore Gulf Fishing
Megalops Atlanticus, the silver king known to many as the ultimate inshore gamefish … 6 feet of chrome clearing their complete body length from the water, while twisting and turning in mid-air. Blistering runs turn lesser tackle into piles of junk, bowing to the king to keep from parting the line, as well as the jumps and runs are what tarpon fishing is all about.
TARPON can be fished in many different ways and areas. Small tarpon can be fished at the jetties on certain tides, with larger fish targeted in the open bay and offshore out to several miles. Some of the largest concentrations are found offshore of the Gulf beach. This style of fishing involves trolling lures, drifti
ng natural bait, or sight-casting lures in and around roving schools. Tarpon can be fished in the bay and close offshore as weather permits.
Nearshore Gulf Fishing involves targeting multiple species of fish like Shark, Jack Crevalle, Bull Reds, King/Spanish Mackerel , Tripletail and Cobia (Ling) are common catches. For the fly fisherman, the open casting deck on the bow makes a stable elevated platform. With advanced preparation, we can practice chumming live or dead baitfish to bring multiple species up close for intense sight casting opportunities.
Offshore Fishing Texas State Waters involves fishing reefs, color changes and oilfield production platforms in the pursuit of King Mackeral, Spanish Mackeral, Tripletail, Red Snapper, Mangrove Snapper, Shark, Cobia (Ling) and Little Tunny (Bonito) all depending on water conditions and season.
