Tarpon Season — Special Pricing
From April through August the tarpon tunnel between Fort Myers and Boca Grande lights up, and Flats Hound goes hunting the Silver King. These trips are timed to tides and bait runs, so pricing is set per trip. Call (239) 994-4027 and ask about tarpon dates — they fill up fast.
