The Tarpon deserves great respect for being one Florida's most spectacular game fish- if not the most spectacular-and what could be more challenging, or more rewarding than sight fishing for these hard-fighting fish using fly tackle?

The west coast of Florida is well known for its great tarpon fishing, and Salty Fly Charters specializes in sight fishing for tarpon-big tarpon. Successful tarpon fishing anywhere in the world requires good local knowledge of the fishing area, quick access, and solid gear.

That's why the best tarpon fishing guides in Florida use customized flats skiffs mad by the Silver King boat company. Salty Fly charters uses nothing but Silver King skiffs for their tarpon fishing charters-the same make and model that presently took and holds the two largest, fly rod caught tarpon records in the International Game Fish Association records. Why? Because it's perfect for the job. Why Florida's west coast? Because it has the largest populations of tarpon, and is also home to many of the largest tarpon in the western hemisphere.

During tarpon season (in May, June and July), your captain targets record-size tarpon on the beautiful and world-famous beaches from Clearwater to Sarasota (including Ft. De Soto Park named numerous times America's #1 beach), but most of the tarpon fishing takes place around the mouth of Tampa Bay.
