Hooking Tarpon when nobody else could

I’m from the Pacific Northwest and love Salmon fishing, so naturally I wanted to try out another fish that could take line and run with it. We found Captain Chris on Tripadvisor as the highest rated guide on the island. Knowing Tarpon fishing to be hit or miss, we wanted somebody who could really get us on the fish. In a half-day, we hooked into 11 fish, landing 5 (2 were over 100 lb threshold). As we fished, boats would start to congregate around us. We were fighting 2 fish at once, and all day we only saw one other boat with a fish hooked. That’s 11 hooked for our group of 3, and well over a dozen other fisherman spread across several boats with a single hooked fish. It was an awesome day with a superior guide. Highly recommend! Book in advance because you don’t want anyone else to guide your Tarpon fishing trip in Boca Grande.
