Trust me, my fingers will tell you it’s VERY SHARP. Have a good day, friends.Diclosure: I am a Lower Keys Guide who strongly opposes the use of trolling motors that are used to “follow”‘, “chase” “troll in front of” or “get into position” while Tarpon fishing. They get relatively big. by the time the boat got across from us I had already jumped two on 6 shots. Post was not sent - check your email addresses! It's probably a combination of fishing pressure, pollution, and possible bait migration. I am assuming the leader is tied directly to the lure.

Is it the trolling motors that are the problems or is it the people with no fishing etiquette who use them the problem? And just like most other lure questions, the most important variable to consider above lure choice is the location of the feeding zones for whichever species is being targeted.

I think it has been acknowledged you get way more opportunities to cast to a fish when using a trolling motor, doesn’t that mean more experience and likely a better angler? The answer to the “best lures for big tarpon” question will most likely vary depending on who is answering the question. Assholes chasing assholes. I posted it to Club members right after the trip with a detailed assessment of the trip. Every guide at that meeting agreed it was the use of trolling motors.A more efficient way to fish seldom improves a fishery.There are changes on-going in the Boca Grande Fishery. This talk about how trolling motors don’t affect the fish is complete, utter BS. So what if I was to show up there someday with an attitude and means of fishing that completely ruined that fishery. There it’s more complicated than just pressure and too many boats.I have fished Boca Grande since i was a child and i am in my 30’s now. They’d set up in front of them, let their clients flail away, then crank up, loop around them and do it all over again. They still want to eat and we still want to feed them!It’s really interesting how the fish can be so intuitive to different techniques. I’m glad I didn’t have to get out my ink well and quill pen to draft this response in the light of a whale-oil lamp upon the lead-painted windowsill in the dying light of the evening!How old school should we go? I was in the middle keys. How To. Like you said, it is what it is. Technique: Tarpon are notorious for keying in on live baits such as crabs, threadfin herring or scaled sardines, so it's no surprise that Waszczuk recommends twitchbaits, swimbaits and wakebaits that mimic them. It’s my favorite thing to do and Ive been doing it for a lot of years and I’ve seen the Keys fishery degrade in recent years due to exactly what Louis and others describeSo at this point I could continue to rant about trolling motors at the risk of sounding like an old man yelling at kids to get out of his yard, but I’m not gonna do that. I mean no disrespect to the guides who use them but I didn’t care for it. I really enjoy Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. If you are in able to pole a boat and have to depend on a trolling motor to catch fish then there are plenty of extremely hard working guys that will be happy to pole you into fish that will eat opposed to beating dead horses. My guess is that you’d take offense. The sleepy funky vibe the keys used to have is slowly giving way to the glitzy big time homes and boats with 1200 horse power of outboards. They fire up the trolling motors and speed towards the oncoming strings, bow crashing, motors humming. What size reel were you using?

The fishery it self has been saturated with Guides and “PseudoGuides” that have “Tarpon Fever” and don’t care as long as they get a chance to hook up and they are willing to do whatever they feel isnecessary in order to do so.
