Did some tarpon fishing last year around Sannibel in May. Was catching fish that were 125lbs. Caught six fish between 7 - 10 AM. As the morning warmed it started getting hot and the fishing died out. Had booked the charter for the day and finally at noon told the capt. lets call it a day. The next time I will only book a half day.
There is a great boat launch between Ft. Myers and the Sannibel bridge. Tarpon fishing from there is not as busy as Boga Grand, your only fishing amongst 15-20 boats instead of a hundred at Boga Grand.
The tarpon put on a good show once hooked, jumping and tailing. If you go tarpon fishing tell the guide you want to be fishing in open water, not the mangroves.
