X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet
You'll likely be using a mullet imitation if you want tarpon to be caught with artificial lures. In open water, however, you will have to fish slightly differently than you would in saltwater. The best way to fish in open water is to keep your bait ten- to fifteen feet from the rolling fish. Slowly, use a series of twitches to move it around. Morris suggests following a 1-second pause followed by a 3-second pause. You can then change to a 1-two count if retrieving erratically. This will make your bait appear like a tasty meal to the Tarpon.
This red-white bunker-colored mullet is a good choice for deep-water fishing. This baitbuster's hollow body makes for a better hookup. It can sit on top of the tarpon's lip and flutter while it swims. This bait is ideal for fishing deep water.

How To
Why use a spinning arrow?
Spinning Rods can be used to cast your lure directly into the water, without needing to leave the boat. If you don’t have the time or desire to get back in your boat quickly after each cast, it’s a great choice. The spinning rod allows you to cast from any angle and still have control over your line. The rod consists of three main components: the handle and the reel seat. You hold the rod with your fingers and grip the shaft. The rod's tips are attached to the hook by the butt portion. Finally, the reel's seat holds the line and the reel. There are many different types of rods available today. Some rods are made for fishing specific techniques, like trolling or casting. Others can be used for a variety of purposes, such as fly fishing, spin-fishing, and bait fishing.
The type of fish that will be caught determines the type and size of the rod. If you want to target large predatory species, such as bass and pike, then you will need a heavier-duty rod. For smaller species such as salmon or trout, a lighter rod might be better. You could even go so far as to buy several rod sizes depending on how big the fish you hope to catch is.
Spinning Rods can be used for more than just freshwater fishing. They can also be used for saltwater fishing. Saltwater spinning reels are typically heavier than freshwater rods. This is because saltwater requires stronger materials to withstand saltwater. Saltwater spinners are more likely to use a longer length rod and have a wider diameter. They are able to cast farther distances thanks to this rod. However, keep in mind that there are some downsides to using a spinning rod for saltwater fishing. First, unlike freshwater spinning rods, saltwater ones do not come with reels. You must buy one individually. They can also be very expensive. A spinning rod is worth considering if you enjoy catching bigger fish.
Spin fishing is a method of angling in which a fisherman uses a spinning rod to cast a weighted lure into the water. When the lure is in the water, it will spin around the weighted central point. This causes the lure's motion to be unpredictable in the water and makes it difficult for fishes to see. Fish may also mistakenly eat the lure for food, and begin to feed on it. It will then attract more fish to the lure. The lure's line can then be reeled in by a fisherman. After the lure is retrieved, the fisherman can continue the process until he has caught the desired number.
