Default Tarpon guide in Boca area?

I was told that there are guides who will take you night Tarpon fishing in SE Fla. Does anyone know anything about them, and if so, can you recommend someone in the Boca Raton area?


Thanks

Are you referring to Boca Raton or Boca Grande. Boca Grande in SW Fl is known for the super tarpon fishing although they are caught on both coasts.

Stox, give me a call anytime. Most of the night time tarpon action is south of you - particularly in the Miami Beach area.... You can divide it up between those that fish for the big fish out of larger center consoles with bait in the cuts and oceanside and guys like me who fish the smaller fish (20 to 40lbs average) with lures and flies around bridges and docklights in smaller skiffs (mostly sightfishing - you're looking at what you're trying to catch...). Check out the posting I made a few days ago on the Charter board for info on the 'Glades tarpon and contact info.
