All the years I've been fishing fresh water down here, I've only managed 2 snook and zero tarpon....and the snook were a long time ago. Would like to learn more about freshwater tarpon fishing.

Re: Lakes for snook and tarpon?
Not only are they euryhaline but I often find snook and tarpon are hogs in fresh water since they do not have any natural predation so they load up on all those freshies-exotics. Try small snake heads on tarpon and mayans on snook, why bother to go to the ocean when you can bank hop, Markham Park.

Re: Lakes for snook and tarpon?
There certainly are Snook and Tarpon on the canal by Markham that parallels SR84, and if the water is moving East go directly to the West end at Krome avenue.avetlord1234 wrote:are there snook at markham park???

IF YOU ARE IN THE MOOD TO TRAVEL GO DOWN TO TAMIAMI(SW 8 street) THEN HEAD WEST(right turn) TOWARDS NAPLES(LOOK FOR CASINO ON LEFT)YOU WILL BE HEADING INTO RESERVATION,BIG CYPRESS(WATER WILL BE EVERY WHERE),BOTH HAVE FREASH WATER ,KEEP GOING TO EVERGLADES CITY,YOU WILL SEE MANY CANALS YOU CAN FISH,BRACKISH AND SALT,YOU PICK WHAT YOU WANT, YOU CAN GET BASS,SNOOK,TARPON,IT DEPENDS ON YOU,IF YOU KEEP GOING YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF NEAR MARCO ISLAND(LOOK FOR THE SIGNS) THEN NAPLES WHERE THEY HAVE THE PIER.IF YOU REALLY WANT SNOOK AND TARPON CLOSER TO HOME,THE MIAMI AIRPORT LAKES ARE YOUR BEST BET,IVE CAUGHT BOTH(TOPWATER IN A:M)YAK OR CANOE WILL HELP,THERE ARE VERY FEW PLACES TO FISH FROM THE BANKS MOST HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED, I KNOW IVE TRIED:!: TIGHT LINES
