Boca Grande Tarpon and Snook Fishing Report: Red-Hot Action Continues Through July with Salty Jaw Charters

The tarpon and snook fishing has been absolutely on fire this month and should continue blazing hot all through July as well. This is prime time for our fishing charter operations, and anglers are experiencing some of the best action we've seen in years.

We're witnessing an incredible concentration of massive female tarpon in the world-famous Boca Grande Pass. These silver kings are absolutely destroying baits and putting on spectacular aerial displays that make every fishing charter trip unforgettable. The big females are jumping aggressively on the line, with fish ranging from 100 to 180 pounds providing heart-stopping fights that test both angler skill and tackle limits.

Our fishing charter captains have been positioning boats in the deeper channels of the pass during the incoming tide, where these prehistoric giants are staging before moving into the shallows to feed. The tarpon bite has been most consistent during the early morning hours and again in the late afternoon, making our half-day fishing charter options perfect for targeting these magnificent fish.

The snook population is absolutely stacked up in Lemon Bay and throughout the waters surrounding Manasota Key. These aggressive predators are feeding heavily, making every fishing charter expedition productive for anglers targeting this prized gamefish.

During our early morning and evening fishing charter trips, we've been crushing snook on topwater plugs in the low-light conditions. The explosive surface strikes are providing incredible entertainment as these fish ambush lures with ferocious aggression. As the sun climbs higher and lighting conditions become brighter, our fishing charter strategy shifts to live minnows worked around structure, dock pilings, and mangrove shorelines where snook stage in the shadows.

The size quality has been exceptional, with numerous fish in the slot size range and plenty of oversized specimens that provide memorable photo opportunities before being released to fight another day. Our fishing charter guests have been consistently landing multiple snook per trip, making for satisfied anglers and fantastic fishing memories.

Before long, the mangrove snapper fishing will be absolutely on fire as these bottom-dwelling fighters move into their summer feeding patterns. Our fishing charter trips will soon be targeting structure and ledges where these tasty fish congregate in large numbers, providing non-stop action and excellent table fare for our guests.
