Fly fishing for Tarpon

5.00Fly fishing 1.5 days with captain Tommy and Miguel. Had a good time- guides put us on tarpon but since we were exclusively fly fishing it made it hard. Lots of tarpon around but sight fishing was limited while we were there. Boats are perfect for this water- stable with big casting platforms. We had our own equipment but borrowed some from the guides which was excellent. Would suggest they add trolling motors to be able to position the boats in deeper water where we couldn’t cast to keep us in the “zone” better and avoid right shoulder winds. (Unless you’re good at backcasting!). We saw lots of big tarpon but mostly rollers which were deeper when feeding. Suggest intermediate sink tips and selection of flies to bring. We got best results on the rollers from large (9-10inch) baitfish patterns that moved some water. Overall would do again but not really for beginner fly fisherman unless you just want to practice and get a saltwater experience. (Guides will help you cast and one of our group ((77 yr old with no saltwater fly casting experience) did jump one tarpon and got a nice snook. Had a

5.00This could have been a miserable trip with the rain, mosquitoes, and being towed back to shore, but it was not! Captain Miguel did a great job of getting us on fish immediately! When we were waiting for the fish to bite, we talked and had an enjoyable time! This was a memorable and amazing experience! Thank you Captain Miguel! I highly recommend this for anyone who enjoys nature and fishing!

5.00We had Captain Abi on our tour today with me, my wife, and our 10 and 12-year-old boys. We did the 7 AM for our tour and had probably around 10 bites and were able to land one solid tarpon, about 15 pounds)! Even though can’t ever guarantee fish on a fishing trip, more importantly, we had great conversation and a peaceful morning on the lagoon. Abi was great with the kids, and they really enjoyed seeing the tarpon come up for air all around us. A few barracuda bites made for some excitement also! Make sure to bring extra bag/cooler with snacks and additional drinks. Great way to see a different side of Puerto Rico. Highly recommend!
Amazing

1.00Hooked into nothing, guide was an hour late our original fishing time was 9-11am Was on phone most of the time talking to other guides trying to figure out a bite. Hey I get fishing isn’t guaranteed, but if you’re charging an exuberant rate ($350) I would expect a way better experience w this. Felt like I threw away 350
No Tarpon, Small Snook. Nice day on Water
Sarah H,17 thg 4, 2026

3.00We are very experienced fishermen who understand tarpon fishing is not easy. We did not hook any tarpon, and only caught a total of 5 under 12” snook in our 4 hour trip. Our captain was good conversation and communication but did not chum, come with live bait, or fish at all to get an extra rod in the water. We were able to get a small amount of live bait from another captain after we expressed our expectation based on the website saying “we specialize in live bait fishing”. Additionally, The boat also does not have a trolling motor (to be quiet for the tarpon) or a depth finder (to see fish below for bridge fishing). In my opinion, all of these controllable items contributed to us not catching anything. We had a nice day on the water but I would choose another company next time
Javier was a great guide!...

5.00Javier was a great guide! He has been fishing San Juan for more than 20yrs and knew the waters well. He was great with my two kids and helped them land their tarpon. It was a wonderful afternoon!!!
