Tarpon
While not as widely known as other Gulf Coast hotspots, Port Vincent, Louisiana, offers a chance at tarpon for the adventurous angler. The key is understanding that these silver kings are more migratory here, showing up primarily during the warmest months, from late June through September. Focus your efforts in the deeper channels and passes leading into Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas. These fish follow schools of baitfish, so keep an eye out for surface activity. Live bait is always a good bet, but large artificials like swimbaits and topwater lures can also trigger explosive strikes. A local tip: target areas with strong tidal flow, as tarpon often use these currents to their advantage when hunting. Be prepared for a serious battle; tarpon are incredibly strong and acrobatic. Keep in mind that Louisiana has specific regulations regarding tarpon fishing, so be sure to check the current rules before heading out.
