XRap Twitchin’ Mollet
Mullet imitations are a great choice for catching tarpon with artificial lures. Fishing in saltwater is a different experience than when you fish in open waters. You'll want to suspend your bait ten to fifteen feet in front of the rolling fish and work it slowly with a series of twitches. Morris suggests that you follow a one second pause with three seconds of pause. If retrieving erratically, Morris recommends changing to a one two count. This will make your bait look like a simple meal for the Tarpon.
This red-white mullet, which is also known as a bunker-colored mullet, is an excellent choice for deep water fishing. The bait buster's small hollow body allows for better hookups. The hook sits on the top of tarpon's lips and will flutter as it moves. This bait is best for fishing in deep waters.

Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper measures 8 inches in length, and is made of tough plastic. This lure, also known to be the "D.O.A Shrimp", can be used to catch tarpon. This lure can be used to catch both big and small tarpon.
The Double Barrel Popper makes a loud sound and leaves a huge bubble trail. The lure is tied using a molded plastic body and a natural, or synthetic tail. It's most effective in shallow waters where there are spotted fish. The lure can be cast and retrieved just like a brushfly. Once you have found the right kind of pattern, it will be easy to catch tarpon.
A medium-heavy spinning rod and long, medium-heavy rod are recommended for fishing for tarpon. For line, Waszczuk recommends braided lines in the 40 to 50-pound class. You can pick the weight of your line according to the size and shape of your Tarpon. Add a fluoroleader (or a leader) to your terminal end. Slowly work your bait with the tip. You can fish for tarpon in shallower waters by using baits that resemble bunker or mullet. The colors can vary depending on where they're found.
