X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet

If you're looking to catch tarpon with artificial lures, you'll probably be using a mullet imitation. However, you're going to have to fish a little differently in the open waters than you would in saltwater. The best way to fish in open water is to keep your bait ten- to fifteen feet from the rolling fish. Slowly, use a series of twitches to move it around. Morris recommends that you take a short pause and then follow it up with a three second pause. Then, if you are retrieving erratically Morris suggests changing to a two count. This will make your bait seem easy to the Tarpon.

This red-white bunker-colored mullet is a good choice for deep-water fishing. This bait buster features a small, hollow body which allows for better hookups. The hook sits on the top of tarpon's lips and will flutter as it moves. This bait is best for fishing in deep waters.

Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper has a length of 8 inches and is made from tough plastic. This lure, also known as "D.O.A Shrimp", is a great lure for tarpon. This lure can be used to catch both big and small tarpon.

The Double Barrel Popper emits a large sound and leaves behind a lot of bubbles. The lure comes with a molded foam body, a synthetic tail or natural tail. It's most effective in shallow waters where there are spotted fish. The lure can be cast and retrieved just like a brushfly. Once you've found the right pattern, you'll be well on your way to catching tarpon.

Fishing for tarpon requires a medium to heavy spinning reel and a rod that is long enough to carry it. Waszczuk recommends braided line in the 40- to 50-pound range. You can choose the weight of line according to the size of your tarpon. Add a fluoroleader (or a leader) to your terminal end. Slowly work your bait with the tip. If you're fishing for tarpon in shallow water, try baits that resemble bunker and mullet. The colors vary depending on where you find them.
