Tarpon Fishing With Yo-Zuri Crystal Minnow Suspending

Tarpon are very finicky and may eat a certain bait one day, and then indulge on another bait the next day. I really can’t help you in your lure selection, but I would highly recomend having some pre-rigged baits ready in case you aren’t getting hits on your “go-to” tarpon lure.Yo-zuri crystal minnow suspendingWhen casting artificials for Tarpon, the floating, Yo-Zuri crystal minnows are my first choice. I’ve had big poons hammer the small 2 3/8 inch model and I’ve had 30-40 pounders hit the magnum series. It’s mostly preference. The magnum’s cast very far, and seem to be very appealing. When distance isn’t a problem, use a smaller minnow around the four inch range.Color. Without a doubt, I would use use the most natural color. Unlike the snook guys love the red head, white bodied lures, Tarpon are much more likely to hit a lure with “realistic” color rather than a colorful color. Many anglers know that lures are designed for the fisherman, not the fish……Crystal Minnow suspending lure follow in the footsteps of its floating and skinking namesakes with unmached looks, action and attraction. The difference is that these suspending lures swim frantically to a depht of 24-36 inches and stay there – even if you stop your retreive and let the lure sit. The suspending Crystal minnow features a streamlined body and brillant holographic finish that lights up in the water… even in low light. In every way, it’s perfect clone of frghtened baitfish.Very good lures for tarpon on night when fishing from bridge ou for snapper fishing. Better use it during cloudy time.
