Traditionally our tarpon season is most consistent in the spring. The migration begins in late April and carries on through the month of July. These fish are commonly known as “migrating tarpon” and show up here in Key West by the thousands, hungry from their long trek. Dates for these charters to fish the migrant tarpon fill up fast sometimes a year in advance so book as soon as you know when you will be in Key West.

However…. Here at Dream Catcher Charters learning from our patterns of years of fishing experience here in Key West we go fishing for tarpon year round. In our world you can tarpon fish consistently from mid January all the way through to November. Sometimes even the off months can be very good as well depending on conditions. A good warm front in February can really heat things up, however very unpredictable. From the slob size tarpon in the late winter to the baby tarpon in the fall and early winter we have a line on all tarpon fishing in Key West.
