The TArpon Run

Tarpon fishing in Southwest Florida is an experience that brings anglers from all over the world to the region. Known as the Tarpon Capital of the World, Southwest Florida offers shallow and slowly sloping bottoms off its shore, creating an ideal haven for tarpon. These fish, also known as "The Silver King," can grow to more than 7 feet in length and weigh over 300 pounds. They primarily feed on crabs, fish, and shrimp, and can be found close to the shore where they gulp air directly from the surface.

Tarpon can be caught near the coast from Fort Myers all the way to Lee County near Gasparilla Island, with Boca Grande Pass being a particularly popular spot due to its deep waters filled with both tarpon and sharks. The best time of year to catch tarpon in Southwest Florida is from May through July.
