Here are some tips to help you catch tarpon using artificial lures. We have already covered the Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper and MirrOlure 77M twitchbait are all covered, as well as the X-Rap 3 inch 1/4-ounce clear jig. Each of these flies is different, but each one works well.
XRap Twitchin’ Mollet
If you are looking to catch tarpon by using artificial lures, you will likely use a mullet imitation. However, you're going to have to fish a little differently in the open waters than you would in saltwater. It's best to put your bait about ten or fifteen feet in front if you want to retrieve the rolling fish. Then, slowly and with a series on twitches, move it slowly. Morris suggests that you follow a one second pause with three seconds of pause. If retrieving erratically, Morris recommends changing to a one 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 has a small, hollow body that allows for a better hookup. It can sit on top of the tarpon's lip and flutter while it swims. If you fish in deep water, this bait can be used.

Dr. Fish's Saltwater GT Popper, which is 8 inches long and made of heavy-duty plastic. This lure, also known as "D.O.A Shrimp", is a great lure for tarpon. This lure can catch large and small tarpon.
The Double Barrel Popper makes a loud sound and leaves a huge bubble trail. This lure is tied with either a natural or synthetic tail and a molded foam head. This lure is best used in shallow water for spotted fish. It can also be cast out and retrieved as a brush 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. You can choose the weight of line according to the size of your tarpon. For hooking, you can add a fluoro leader to the terminal end of your line and work your bait slowly with the tip of your rod. You can fish for tarpon in shallower waters by using baits that resemble bunker or mullet. The colors can vary depending on where they're found.

X-Rap 3-inch 1/4 ounce clear jig
If you're looking for a clear jig to lure tarpon, the X-Rap is a great choice. Capt. Jim loves to fish inshore waters with this bait. It is a great bait with excellent hooks, and it sinks when stationary. This bait is excellent in clear water. It can be fished along the shore or at a dock. It can also be used in brackish or shallow flats. These conditions are ideal for the gold and pilchard colors.

How To
How to Perfectly Cast a Fishing Rod
Casting a fishing pole requires that you use your wrist to guide the rod's handle toward the water. The rod should be held slightly away from the body so that it is parallel to the ground. As you move the rod forward, ensure that the rod tip is perpendicular with the water's surface. If the tip of the rod touches the water's surface, fish won’t bite. This technique allows you to increase the distance from the tip of your rod to the water's surface.
These are some tips that will make casting a fly rod easier if you aren't confident enough.
Hold the rod as close as you can to your chest. By doing this, the rod will move in the right direction and you won't have to bend.
Second, when casting a heavy rod, you may want to set up a tripod on the shoreline or on a rock ledge. This will allow you secure your rod and reel while keeping it in place.
Third, you might consider buying a smaller reel as an alternative to a larger one. A cheap spinning reel can be used to cast longer distances, and it will also help you with your hand-eye coordination.
A fishing pole holder is another option. These holders are made to securely hold the rod while maintaining its upright position. They are easy to store after use and protect the rod against damage.
Fifth, practice your casting technique until you feel comfortable with the motion. Casting a fishing line takes practice.
Sixth, patience will be your key to successful fishing. You need to wait until the right moment strikes and then work hard for the fish.
