Fort Myers Tarpon Fishing
Starting in April as the tarpon begin flooding into the area. The back bays of Fort Myers and
Ft.
Myers Beach will play host to thousands of tarpon, this is when Go
Fish Charters and Guide Service begins targeting tarpon on a daily
basis. These tarpon will establish a pattern of movement from area
to area. To insure our fishing charters are productive we start
targeting tarpon as soon as they show. Setting up in various
locations and chumming and live baiting the area. These tarpon
charters in the early part of the season are spinning rod and sight
casting trips and can be mixed up with a flats and backcountry trip
for snook red fish and other species. As May approaches and the
water temps get optimal these giant tarpon move North into Boca
Grande Pass. This is where all the fast paced action takes place as
veteran tarpon guides and anglers converge on the pass for the next
two months. This tarpon fishing fleet will operate 24 hours a day in
a truly phenomenal display of what is locally known as the Boca
Grande Dance. Go Fish Charters and Guide service and Capt Andy
Boyette will shift in to high gear and fish from daylight till dark.
With the long days it affords a two fishing charter a day schedule. Each charter is 6 hours long with a morning tarpon fishing charter beginning at 6am and lasting till noon. This charter consist mostly of jig fishing in the pass. After a lunch break Capt Andy will pickup another fishing charter party for the afternoon 1pm-7pm returning to Boca Grande Pass for a time, to jig fish, but as this trip progresses the tarpon will start to break up into smaller groups and move slightly
off shore to the Beach, the rest of the trip will be sight casting
and free lining live bait. Both the morning and the afternoon
fishing charters are equally productive. Go Fish Charters and Guide
Service and Capt. Andy Boyette have the experience to produce
consistently on either of these tarpon fishing charters. So if you
want to fish early and spend the afternoon on a Fort Myers golf
course, sightseeing on Ft Myers Beach Florida's beautiful coast
or want to check out the local night time scene in downtown Fort
Myers; and sleep-in and catch the afternoon fishing charter we can
accommodate you. Tarpon Fishing Charters are available for up to
four anglers or group arrangements can be made. Tarpon Fishing Fort
Myers, Ft. Myers Beach, Boca Grande Pass, Charlotte Harbor, and
along the beaches, live bait, jig fishing, or fly fishing
