If you are looking for artificial lures to catch tarpon, this is the place to be. We have covered the X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet, Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper, MirrOlure 77M twitch bait, and the X-Rap 3-inch 1/4-ounce clear jig. Each of these flies has a different action, and each works well.
X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet
If you are looking to catch tarpon by using artificial lures, you will likely use a mullet imitation. Fishing in saltwater is a different experience than when you fish in open waters. Your bait should be suspended ten to fifteen yards in front of the fish, and you will need to slowly work it with a series twitches. Morris recommends following a one-second pause with a three-second pause, and changing to a one-two count if you're retrieving erratically. This will make your bait seem like an easy meal to 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 is designed to be placed on top of the tarpon, allowing it to flutter along with it as it swims. This bait is ideal for fishing deep water.

Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper, which is 8 inches long and made of heavy-duty plastic. This lure, also known as "D.O.A Shrimp", is a great lure for tarpon. This lure can be used to catch both big and small tarpon.
Double Barrel Popper creates a loud, clear sound and big bubble trails. 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've chosen the right type of pattern, you're well on your way towards catching tarpon.
You should fish for tarpon with a medium-heavy spinning and long rod. Waszczuk recommends braided 40-50 pound lines. You can choose the weight of line according to the size of your tarpon. To hook, add a fluoroleader at the terminal end of the line. Then slowly use the tip of the rod to move your bait. If you're fishing for tarpon in shallow water, try baits that resemble bunker and mullet. The colors vary depending on where you find them.
MirrOlure 77M twitch bait
MirrOlure 77M shad twitchbaits are great for snook, bluefish, tarpon and jack. These twitchbaits are available in many eye-catching colors and sink to several feet. This type of bait imparts an irresistible darting action to the fish. There are many options for natural colors and patterns.
This twitchbait is suspended and stays submerged for 36 inches. This bait should not be fished with one lure. Instead, it should be slowly brought in and used for a slow and steady retrieve. Its hot, tiger-colored color, also called the Tropical color in Cuba is perfect for tarpon when it's dark or low-light conditions. This twitchbait also works well on cubera snapper, jack crevalle, and other fish.
MirrOlure 77M twitchbait is all-purpose and can be used for trolling or casting. It is made of ABS and has a UV protective finish. It is durable enough to withstand all water conditions. The holographic reflections make this lure a standout in any situation.
X-Rap 3-inch 1/4 ounce clear jig
If you're looking for a clear jig to lure tarpon, the X-Rap is a great choice. This bait is a favourite of Capt. Jim's for fishing inshore waters. It is a great bait with excellent hooks, and it sinks when stationary. This bait works well in clear waters and can be fished either on the beach or close to a dock. This bait is also very effective in shallow flats and brackish rivers. The gold or pilchard colors are great for these conditions.
TerrorEyz's 3-inch 1/4-ounce clear jig can also be used for sight casting. This bait has glitter specs that are designed to catch juvenile Spanish tarpon. It also looks great when it's clear water. The manufacturer even claims that the bait is stuffed with shrimp. If you are unsure if it's stuffed, it can be used as a soft plastic bait and still catch tarpon.

How To
How to fish in Freshwater
Freshwater fishing can be described as catching freshwater fish from streams, lakes, rivers and ponds. Common fish species include bass, catfish and crappie as well as trout, trout, sunfish and walleye. These fish can be caught using a variety of methods. Casting, trolling and spinnerbaits are some of the most popular methods to catch these species.
Finding a good spot to catch fish is the first step in any fishing endeavor. This means that you should choose a location near the water source. Next, you need to decide on the type of equipment that you want.
If you plan on using live bait, you should choose something that looks like food to the fish so they will bite at it. Live bait may include worms.
Artificial lures are baits that are made from plastic, metal, foam, feathers, metal, rubber and other materials. Artificial lures are available in many sizes and shapes. They are able to imitate aquatic prey, such as shiners, crawfish, grubs, minnows, and other animals. Many people prefer to use lures because they don't require much skill to cast them into the water. It is easy to set up lures and to retrieve them once they have reached their target.
If you do not want to use live bait or if you just want to try some new techniques then you might consider learning how to cast. Casting is one of most effective ways to catch fish. It requires very little effort and no special skills.
You will need a rod, reel and line. You can cast with just a pole. Casting is as easy as holding the rod vertically high above the water. You then slowly lower your rod's tip to the water. The line will begin unwinding from the reel once it reaches the water. You can let go of your rod when the line reaches its full length and the lure will fall into the water.
Another method of catching fish is trolling. Trolling is the use of a boat to transport a lure across the water.
Fishing can be fun and rewarding. There are many types of fishing, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Some methods are easier to learn than others but all require patience and practice.
