Tarpon season 2025 was one for the books! Having clean water again was definitely a contributing factor, as it seemed that our migration was heavier than the previous couple of years, and a lot of fish stuck around the Bay Area late into the year.
I expect that this year will be even more productive! We’ve always teased about jumping 1,000 fish in a year, and some years we’ve come close. I think this year may be the one!Whether you’re looking to catch a bunch of them, or just that giant fish of a lifetime,
@owen.mathis and I will get you hooked up on them!
I’d really like to thank several people for their help, allowing us to do what we do best. Without them, we wouldn’t be able to stay on the tarpon all season long!
My wife,
@smsparks89 , for putting up with the long hours and me falling asleep at the dinner table mid sentence and all the support at home.
@choosing_greatness and
@owen.mathis for all of their help on board, doing whatever it takes to make sure our clients get the best experience out of their fishing trip.
@bettsfishingcenter @minnkotaatbetts and
@jessewright_ @anthonyderosa00 for making sure all my trolling motor, rods and tackle are all in working order.
@calcuttaboats for making the most versatile, and comfortable 26’ boat on the water and keeping me running as I test her limits. This machine just flat out catches tarpon.
@fishseaguar for making the best leader material on the planet. Outfishes everything else 5-1, and can turn a 150 pound tarpon on its back.
@deckgear for keeping our customers comfortable while they’re putting an absolute whooping on the fish.
@fish_shimano_north_america for making the smoothest and most durable reels on the market.
@aftcogulf for protecting our hands all season long. By far the best gloves on the market.
Best of luck to everyone in 2026, and we’ll see you on the water!
