Tarpon

Tarpon

saltwater

Targeting tarpon near Mooringsport, Louisiana, requires a strategic approach, as these fish are more commonly found further south along the Louisiana coast. However, determined anglers can find juvenile tarpon in the brackish waters of the bayous and canals that connect to the Gulf of Mexico, especially during the warmer months. Focus your efforts around areas with good tidal flow, such as bridge pilings and creek mouths. Live shrimp or small crabs fished under a popping cork can be effective. Remember that tarpon are powerful fish, so use appropriate tackle and be prepared for a fight. While Mooringsport isn't a tarpon hotspot, the thrill of hooking one of these 'silver kings' in these less-pressured waters can be especially rewarding. Respect the fish and practice catch and release to help maintain the population.
