About Your Trip

Get ready to hook into the "Silver King" on an epic Tarpon fishing adventure in Daytona Beach! These hard-fighting, acrobatic giants are the ultimate challenge for any angler, and this trip gives you the best shot at landing one. Whether you’re new to the sport or a seasoned pro, this 4- or 6-hour private trip will have you targeting Tarpon using live bait as we drift or anchor in prime spots like Ponce Inlet, Indian River North, or Mosquito Lagoon.

We’ll meet right by the water where the boat will be waiting, and from there, it’s a quick ride to some of the best Tarpon waters in Florida. You’ll be fishing aboard a 20’ Carolina Skiff, equipped with everything needed for a smooth, successful day on the water, including a live well, PowerPole, and trolling motor to keep us locked on the fish.

Tarpon are known for their powerful runs and jaw-dropping jumps, making this a thrilling experience for any angler. With expert guidance, you’ll have the chance to battle these monsters while enjoying the beautiful Florida coast. Ice, drinks, rods, and licenses are all included—just bring your enthusiasm for an unforgettable fishing adventure!

Book your Tarpon trip today and come prepared for an exhilarating day on the water chasing one of the most prized fish in Florida!

We vet our guides and only partner with the best of the best. Our guides do their very best to keep you safe, show you a great time, and send you home with a memorable experience shared with family and friends.

Once you've paid your deposit at checkout, we'll send you a QR Code boarding pass. Just show your guide your boarding pass on the day of the trip, they'll scan it, the remaining balance will transfer automatically, and you'll be all set to get out there. Just make sure you bring a cash tip for the guide!

In the event of inclement weather, our guides will check the conditions and make the final call on whether its safe to go on the trip. If they decide the trip needs to be postponed, we'll work closely with you to reschedule or provide a credit for the full deposit, which can be applied to any of our trips in the US and beyond.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses. Additional costs may include leases, marina or slip fees, bait, and the expenses involved in providing and maintaining the necessary gear for your trip.

After booking your trip, we'll connect you directly with your guide to discuss additional details. In the meantime, our team is here to answer any questions via email, text, or phone.
