Boca Grande Tarpon Fishing Charters

Boca Grande Pass is known as The Tarpon Capital of the World! Every year tens of thousands of tarpon fill the pass from May to July. Considered by many to be the ultimate sport fish to catch, these fish range from 100 to 200Lbs with the State record being 240Lbs. Last season Captain Ken Mercer landed a tarpon that was over 7 feet long and weighed in just 20lbs from the record. The Silver King requires about 45 minutes to get reeled in and land. With spectacular runs that burn up the drag and require the captain to chase the fish with the boat as you battle from the fighting chair on the bow. These hard charges are typically finished with fish leaping up to 6 feet in the air! Over 50% of the fish hooked end up breaking the line or shaking it free. This is the Super Bowl of fishing and should be on every anglers bucket list. Nauti Knots has been one of the most successful charters in the pass for several years in a row. Many charter Captains won't even offer trips into the pass. Your success requires a highly skilled and experienced Captain to land these giants. Captain Ken is well known as one of the best guides in the area to get it done.
