"Tarpon are the game fish of choice for anglers of all classes!"
Tarpon
Tarpon migrate with warmer salt-water currents,
spawning offshore between May and September, and returning to grow and
thrive in bays, estuaries, shallows, mangrove-lined lagoons, and flats
along the coast. After maturity they feed more
exclusively on shrimp, crabs, and other fish such as mullets, pin fish,
marine catfish, sardines, and Atlantic needle fish. An elongated bony
plate along the upturned lower jaw allows them to crush crustaceans and
other food not consumed whole.
