While you can catch tarpon year-round in the warm blue waters surrounding, the big show takes place in May and June.
This is when the giant fish converge on the area like the college kids drawn to a few months earlier by the same urges.
Tarpon come to our area from the gentle waters as well as the depths of the windswept Atlantic Ocean to engage in the annual prehistoric spawning rites that regenerate their species.
On a calm morning, it is not uncommon to see dozens of fish "daisy chaining," or swimming in tightly knit circles, with the males fertilizing the discharge of egg-laden females. Marine biologists say that ripe females will lay as many as one thousand eggs.
While these fish are totally preoccupied, they will stop momentarily to snack on pinfish, mullet, crabs, and shrimp as well as lures or small flies stripped in front of their large underslung jaws.
Their favorite food is the palolo worm, which hatches every year in the water of the southern Keys on low falling tides on a new moon. It generally starts in the evening.
Small worms emerge from the bottom of the offshore shallows and ride the falling tide out to sea It is then that they are intercepted by the hungry spawning tarpon.
Whether that's true or not, these large fish lose all perspec tive when the hatch begins. Their usual wariness also disappears, and it is not uncommon to see them bouncing off skiffs as they clamor to suck down as many palolo worms as possible.
It is also amazing to me that these huge fish which grow to more than two hundred pounds, will stop to scarf up small feather flies. It speaks volumes about their incredible eyesight.
