Mullet Migration - Tarpon Fishing From The Beach

Tarpon Fishing From The Beach during the Fall Mullet Migration
The fall Mullet Migration is the best time to catch Tarpon from the beach. As the bait travels down the coastline they are chased and corralled close to the shore and often trapped in corners of inlets and jetty. Depending on your beach you can expect the beach to get crowded with other happy baiters trying to catch a Snook or a Tarpon or even doing extreme beach shark fishing. Thats why it is a good idea to fish with a friend. You will often have to wade out in waist deep surf, and with sharks and barracudas mixed in the surf its better to have another person with you. Almost all of the Florida shark attacks happen during the Mullet Run, from Sebastian to the Keys. Once the shark attack reports start popping up regularly in the news, you can bet the bait is in that area. Also its alot easier to land a Tarpon or Shark with an extra set of hands, the last thing you want to do is throw your combo onto the sand to free up your hands.

It happens fast and if you aren't ready you miss it. . Once the nets are in order, we will turn our attention to the buckets and wells. That includes pumps and plumbing. The biggest struggle is always separating 5 gallon buckets that are stuck together. The rods and reels were just overhauled but I will go over them anyway, and get anything fixed that is questionable. New line and leaders and hooks. The point here is to have your gear ready so you can get bait and whack some trophy fish. Tarpon, Snook, Jacks, and Sharks. The Old Timers call it Happy Bait, I call it The Run, either way dont show up with gear that don...
