We love breaking out the long stick and targeting fish on the fly! The flats and inshore mangrove edges of the Suncoast are loaded with opportunities to target fish on the fly. Redfish, Snook, juvenile Tarpon and other species are all available year round! You do need to be able to cast 50'-80' in most cases. These fish are on high alert on the flats and can be spooky. Book any trip and just let us know you want to use fly gear.
Yes indeed! Sight fishing Tarpon during the migration is one of the most unbelievable experiences you can have as a serious angler. These fish eat a fly so well that it is my preferred way to target them. Casts here will be in the 60' to 80' range. This type of fishing can be grueling with long sections of idle time but its all worth it them that fish eats! Book your trip for the 2026 Tarpon Season!
We always have the best gear on the boat and fly fishing is no exception! Tibor Reels, Hardy Zane Pro rods and the best all clear lines on the market.
The fish might not always cooperate but the gear is never the problem. I love these set up's and fish with them personally. Fly fishing trip are usually best with two anglers. One is usually sitting while the other is casting. Come see for yourself!
