If you are doing a guided trip, those guys are usually pretty generous with some info for a customer. Book the trip and ask him if he knows any general areas you might wade for a few hours on some other days... I'd bet they'd give you some spots. Just be tactful... and give him a nice tip.

I go out with a guide on the Indian River (ICW - east coast) and he's offered to show me how to get to some areas to wade. I hadn't had time in prior years, but I'll probably take him up on it this year, since I'm going strictly to fish this year versus a family trip.

I'll be there in late March as well.

I know the tarpon run on the east coast is in May, though the baby tarpon (up to 50lbs) are earlier, possibly resident fish. Its mostly reds, trout, snook, jacks and spanish mackerel in March. I think the Gulf side is pretty similar.

I don't know about you guys, but my problem with tarpon is that we have fish up here in May. I want to go down there when its cold and crappy up here... something to get me through the winter. I guess I need to go further south.

Good luck guys.
