Tarpon Cay Lodge 
Mexico
Tarpon Cay Lodge Fishing Program:
Tarpon Cay Lodge is located along the Yucatan coast in the charming little fishing village of San Felipe. Here you will have the opportunity to fish for baby Tarpon, 5 to 20+ pounds, amongst the mangrove-lined shores and turtle grass flats of the Rio Lagartos National Preserve – a protected Tarpon nursery.
“We had darn good fishing at Tarpon Cay Lodge. It was superb – the staff was gracious and the food was simple yet delicious. This is clearly undiscovered tarpon fishing. I hope to return soon.” D.V., WA
Tarpon Cay Lodge Daily Schedule:
*Breakfast: Served at around 5:30 AM, so you should be awake, dressed and ready for breakfast by then. Staff usually arrives by 5:00am to make coffee; so earlier risers can wake up long before breakfast. After breakfast, gather your fishing gear and head out to the boats.
*Lunch: Your lunch is packed by the cook and is taken with you in a cooler. Lunches consist of made-to-order sandwiches, snacks, and assorted beverages.
Your fishing program will be based on tides and weather conditions. On some weeks, you will fish from morning through the afternoon. On other weeks, the program may consist of fishing the AM hours, a break mid-ay (lunch/”siesta”!), and then an evening session of fishing. Your guides will determine the program based on the optimum timing of tides and weather.
*Dinner: After returning to the lodge, enjoy a cocktail, eat dinner, and share the highlights of the day with the other guests.
