X-Rap Twitchin' Mullet
Mullet imitations are a great choice for catching tarpon with artificial lures. But, in open water you'll need to fish slightly differently to saltwater. The best way to fish in open water is to keep your bait ten- to fifteen feet from the rolling fish. Slowly, use a series of twitches to move it around. Morris recommends that you take a short pause and then follow it up with a three second pause. Then, if you are retrieving erratically Morris suggests changing to a two count. This will make your bait seem like an easy meal to the Tarpon.
Deep-water fishing is easy with this red-white bunker-colored Mullet. This bait buster is small and hollow, which makes it easier to hook up. It can sit on top of the tarpon's lip and flutter while it swims. When fishing in deep water, try using this bait when you're fishing in slow-water conditions.

How To
Why would you need a spinning rod?
Spinning rods are used to cast your lure into water without having to leave the boat. If you don't want your casts to take too long, a spinning rod is a good choice. The spinning rod allows you to cast from any angle and still have control over your line. The main components of the rod are the handle, reel seat, and butt section. The handle is where you hold the rod and grip the shaft. The rod's tip is attached to the hook at the butt section. Finally, the reel seat holds the reel onto which the line is attached. There are many options for rods. Some rods are made for fishing specific techniques, like trolling or casting. Others can be used to fly fish, spin fish, baitfish, and so on.
The type you catch will affect the type rod you choose. For example, if you target large predatory species like bass or pike, you would probably want a heavy-duty rod. For smaller species such as salmon or trout, a lighter rod might be better. You could even consider buying multiple rod sizes, depending on how large the fish you are trying to catch.
Spinning Rods are not limited to just freshwater fishing. They are commonly used for saltwater fishing too. Saltwater spinning reels are typically heavier than freshwater rods. This is because saltwater requires stronger materials to withstand saltwater. Saltwater spinners are more likely to use a longer length rod and have a wider diameter. They can cast further distances because of this. However, keep in mind that there are some downsides to using a spinning rod for saltwater fishing. Saltwater spinning reels come without reels, which is a big difference from freshwater rods. You will need to purchase one on its own. The second reason is that they can be quite expensive. A spinning rod is worth considering if you enjoy catching bigger fish.
A spin fishing method is when a fisherman uses his spinning rod to cast a weighted lure in the water. The weighted center of the lure turns as the lure moves through water. The lure will move in a erratic manner, making it hard for fish to recognize the lure. Fish may also mistakenly eat the lure for food, and begin to feed on it. The lure will draw more fish to itself. The fisherman can then reel in the line attached to the lure. After the lure is retrieved, the fisherman can continue the process until he has caught the desired number.
