The Tarpon are plentiful at this point. I am seeing them in skinny water so we have working feverishly to catch them on fly which is an amazing, like no other fight! Before you come to fish tarpon on fly even if you are an avid fly fisherman you will need to make sure to practice your distance cast. Many people fly fish however, it is very different when catching tarpon and bonefish on fly. Distance and accuacy matter. You will need to lay the fly just past their mouth and then strip your line so the fly is presented right in front of their mouths. You will also need to cast far enough so the fish never gets a glimps of the boat! Once they see the boat, it’s over!

You will not have many shots so every cast is important..
