If you are an angler, and have never experienced Tarpon Fishing in Southwest Florida…you are in for a treat! Boca Grande Pass on the West coast of Florida is regarded as the “Silverking Capitol of the World”!! This deep water pass is the primary opening into Charlotte Harbor, just North of Fort Myers Beach. It lies between the southern point of Gasparilla Island and the northern shore of Cayo Costa Island. Large amounts of water flow in and out of this pass and carry huge amounts of food for the tarpon, which arrive by the thousands. The fish begin to show up in early April and congregate in the 80-foot deep hole just off the tip of Gasparilla Island. Tarpon continue showing up in the pass feeding on the thousands of small crab that flow out to the Gulf from Charlotte Harbor. With the arrival of the tarpon comes the arrival of the tarpon fishermen eager to take on the great silverkings. Each year, the fishing here gains even more popularity. It is a very exciting place during the tarpon season, due to the number of fish in the pass. Schools containing hundred of tarpon will roll beside your boat. The atmosphere in the pass is very exciting, with as many as 20 fish being fought at the same time by the anglers!
