X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet

A mullet imitation is a good choice if you want to catch tarpon using artificial lures. However, you're going to have to fish a little differently in the open waters than you would in saltwater. The best way to fish in open water is to keep your bait ten- to fifteen feet from the rolling fish. Slowly, use a series of twitches to move it around. Morris recommends following a one-second pause with a three-second pause, and changing to a one-two count if you're retrieving erratically. This will make the bait appear easy to the Tarpon.

This red-white, bunker-colored mullet makes a great choice for deep-water fishing. This baitbuster's hollow body makes for a better hookup. The hook sits on the top of tarpon's lips and will flutter as it moves. This bait is great for deep-water fishing.

You should fish for tarpon with a medium-heavy spinning and long rod. Waszczuk recommends braided line in the 40- to 50-pound range. The weight of your tarpon will determine the line you use. To hook, add a fluoroleader at the terminal end of the line. Then slowly use the tip of the rod to move your bait. Try baits that resemble mullet or bunker if you are fishing for tarpon. The color of the bait will vary depending on where they are found.

How To

Finding the Best Fishing Spot

You must decide what type of fish you want. This will help you find the best fishing spots. It is important to decide whether you prefer deep sea fishing or shallow-water fishing. Deep sea fishing requires a boat, which costs money. Shallow water fishing is done from shore, so there's no cost involved. If you're interested in catching trout, you'd probably choose shallow water fishing. You'll need to travel to deeper water if you are looking for barracuda.

There are many fishing spots to choose from, depending on which type you prefer. Some places only offer one type, while others offer multiple options. One example is that some areas are known for their bass fishing and others specialize in fly-fishing. Others are known for their shark fishing, crabbing, and other activities.

The best way to figure out where to go depends on your budget, how long you plan to stay, and what you like doing. Do you enjoy camping? A place close to a lake might appeal to you. Do you prefer the city? You might prefer the beach. You might enjoy canoeing and sailing, scubadiving, kayaking, and surfing.

Ask someone who is familiar with fishing. You could ask them about everything, including where to go.

You can even search online for fishing spots near you. This will give many options. You can narrow down your options by reading customer reviews and rating. This is possible on a variety of websites.

Once you have selected a location to visit, it is important that you actually go there. Because sometimes getting there can take you longer than you anticipated, make sure to have directions. It is important to take everything you might need. You should also bring bait, sunscreen, and a tackle box.

Research the weather conditions at your fishing spot is also an excellent idea. Seek out the forecast to see the best times of day. You might need to adjust your plans if the weather changes.

You can now plan your trip once you know where you are going. Next is to decide what to fish.
