We had booked a 3 person half day charter for Tarpon fishing with Jeff. Jeff had us hooked on the Tarpon less than 5 minutes after dropping anchor. Everyone caught at least 1-2 Tarpon per person and the fight that these fish put up is unforgettable. We had the best time and would highly recommend Tight Lines Charter and Captain Jeff did a great job getting us on the Tarpon and had great patience with us for fighting a long battle with each tarpon. We also encountered a hammerhead shark that unfortunately... More

My friend and I went tarpon fishing with Captain Jeff Zellers on a 6 hour trip. Fishing conditions were not ideal, with steady east wind and a good bit of chop on the water. Captain Jeff did a great job anchoring the boat in such position to optimize our hook up chances. We brought one to the boat and jumped and fought4 others. We did not see any other boats with a hookup. Captain Jeff is patient, pleasant, and knows his stuff on the tarpon fishing. I would recommend him highly.

I enjoyed a fantastic 3/4 day out on the water with Jeff. 2 massive Tarpon and a Permit brought to the boat then released, the largest of which was 68 inches long and 39 inches girth and an estimated 136 lbs. The rest were brutal bust-offs after spectacular tussles and aerobatics. Jeff is a first class guide; knowledgeable, helpful and great company. I would whole heartedly recommend him to the serious angler wanting to fulfil their BIG Tarpon fantasies.

Our captain worked the water the entire time and kept us on the fish. Very knowledgeable and professional. We had a great time.

Wish I could say it was horrible so I could keep him to myself. But I can’t. The trip was everything I expected and more. Bucket list item for me and he did not disappoint. Great trip, he even suggested we wait a few hours so conditions would improve. Thank you Jeff we will be back
