If you're looking to catch tarpon on artificial lures, you've come to the right place. We have already covered the Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper is covered as well as MirrOlure 77M twitchbait and the X-Rap 3-inch 1/4-ounce clear jig. Each of these flies is different, but each one works well.
X-Rap Twitchin’ Mullet
You'll likely be using a mullet imitation if you want tarpon to be caught with artificial lures. In open water, however, you will have to fish slightly differently than you would in saltwater. To fish slowly, you'll need to place your bait about ten to fifteenft in front the rolling fish. Morris suggests following a 1-second pause followed by a 3-second pause. You can then change to a 1-two count if retrieving erratically. This will make your bait seem like an easy meal to the Tarpon.
This red-white bunker-colored mullet is a good choice for deep-water fishing. This bait buster is small and hollow, which makes it easier to hook up. The hook can be placed on the top lip or tarpon to allow it to flutter and swim. This bait is great for deep-water fishing.
Dr. Dr.
A great tarpon fishing lure is the Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper measures 8 inches in length, and is made of tough plastic. This lure is also known as the "D.O.A Shrimp," and it is an all-around great lure that's the best choice for tarpon. This lure can be used to catch both small and big 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 works best when used in shallow areas for spotted fish. This lure can be cast out as a brush or retrieved as a fly. Once you have found the right kind of pattern, it will be easy to catch tarpon.
You should fish for tarpon with a medium-heavy spinning and long rod. For line, Waszczuk recommends braided lines in the 40 to 50-pound class. The weight of your tarpon will determine the line you use. Add a fluoroleader (or a leader) to your terminal end. Slowly work your bait with the tip. 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 come in many appealing patterns and can sink to several yards. This bait is irresistible to fish because of its darting action. You can choose from a variety of natural colors and patterns.
This twitch bait has a suspending action that stays submerged for up to 36 inches. This type of tarpon bait shouldn't be fished as one lure. Slow and steady retrieves are recommended. The hot tiger colour, also known in Cuba as the Tropical color, is ideal for tarpon at night or under low light conditions. This bait is also great for cubera snapper and jack crevalle.

X-Rap 3-inch 1/4 ounce clear jig
If you're looking to lure tarpon with a clear jig, the X-Rap jig is a great option. This bait is a favourite of Capt. Jim's for fishing inshore waters. It has excellent hooks and a sinking action when stationary. This bait works well in clear water and can be fished on the beach or near a dock. It's also effective in brackish rivers and shallow flats. These conditions can be aided by the use of gold or pilchard color.
TerrorEyz is another clear jig that can be used to sight cast. It measures 3 inches and weighs 1/4 ounce. This bait is filled to catch juvenile tarpon with glitter specs. It looks great in clear water and is made with real shrimp. But if you're not sure whether it's stuffed with shrimp, don't worry because this bait is made of soft plastic, and it's still very effective at catching tarpon.
