Seasonal Tarpon Fishing
4 Hours$800
6 Hours$1,000

Every spring, Southwest Florida comes alive as massive schools of migratory tarpon — often exceeding 100 lbs — flood the waters around Sanibel Island and Boca Grande. This is one of the most legendary fisheries in the world and your best opportunity to hook into the fish of a lifetime.

Watch as giant tarpon roll on the surface, then hold on as one explodes on your bait and launches into the air with powerful, acrobatic jumps. Whether chasing your first tarpon or a true bucket-list catch, Captain Kevin will put you in the right place at the right time.
