What to Expect on the Water

We kick things off bright and early, chasing monster Tarpon as the sun peeks over the horizon. There's nothing quite like the rush of hooking into one of these silver kings as they explode out of the water. As the day heats up, we'll switch gears and set our sights on the elusive Tripletail. These oddball fish are a local favorite, known for their acrobatic fights and delicious meat. Our seasoned captains know exactly where to find them, and we'll use sight fishing techniques to put you in the perfect position for that epic catch.

Top Catches This Season

We're all about using the right tools for the job. For those dawn Tarpon battles, we'll be slinging swim baits to entice those big girls to bite. When it comes to Tripletail, sight fishing is the name of the game. We'll cruise the flats, keeping our eyes peeled for these masters of camouflage. Once spotted, it's all about a precise cast and a delicate presentation. Don't worry if you're new to these techniques – our guides will walk you through every step, from choosing the right lure to setting the hook just right.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Tripletail: These odd-looking fish are the stars of our show and for good reason. Tripletail are the ultimate tricksters of the sea, often floating on their sides near the surface, mimicking floating debris. Don't let their lazy appearance fool you – once hooked, they put up a fight that'll have you grinning from ear to ear. They average 5-15 pounds, but we've seen some real bruisers push past 20! The best part? They're absolutely delicious, making them a favorite for both sport and table fare.

Tarpon: Known as the "Silver King," Tarpon are the heavyweight champs of inshore fishing. These prehistoric beasts can grow over 6 feet long and tip the scales at well over 100 pounds. When you hook into one, hold on tight – they're famous for their gill-rattling jumps and blistering runs. Tarpon fishing is catch-and-release, but the memories of battling these giants will last a lifetime. The best time to target them is during their spring and early summer migration, when they show up in good numbers around Apalachicola.
