About Your Trip

There's nothing quite like watching a giant Silver King explode out of the water at sunrise, and this six-hour adventure is designed around giving you the best opportunity to experience one of Florida's most iconic gamefish. During tarpon season, Captain Marcos focuses his efforts on intercepting migrating fish along the beaches off Treasure Island, where sight-fishing opportunities can create unforgettable moments.

Captain Marcos specializes in reading the conditions, quietly positioning the boat, and helping anglers make the perfect presentation to rolling fish. Whether you prefer spinning tackle or fly fishing, he'll tailor the trip to your preferred style and the day's conditions. Fly anglers are welcome to bring their own gear or discuss tackle options with the captain before the trip.

Outside of the peak tarpon migration, these same productive waters offer excellent opportunities to target a variety of inshore and nearshore species. Depending on the season, you may spend the day chasing Snook, Redfish, Cobia, or Gag Grouper, giving anglers a reason to come back throughout the year.

Fishing takes place aboard a comfortable 22-foot bay boat equipped with GPS, fishfinder, livewell, and everything needed to efficiently cover the beaches, passes, and nearshore waters where these fish roam.

Whether you're checking Tarpon off your bucket list or chasing Florida's diverse lineup of inshore gamefish, Captain Marcos will put you in the best position to make the most of your day on the water.
