Morning tarpon

$900· 4 hours · 6:00 AM · up to 4 anglers

Out at first light for the Silver King. Tarpon are why a lot of anglers come to Marathon, and they are one of the fish the Callions have won tournaments on. Live bait is in the well before you arrive, and every tarpon goes back in the water after the photo.

Season: 1 April – 30 June

Afternoon tarpon

$900· 4 hours · 4:00 PM · up to 4 anglers

The same fish, on the evening session — the boat leaves at 4:00 PM. For anyone who would rather fish into the evening than be at the dock before sunrise. Every tarpon is released.
