Tarpon Town Hosted Adventures
Campeche might be the world's top destination for juvenilleTarpon. An abundant population of Tarpon offers multiple fish days, plenty of jumps, and it's all on floating lines with small easy to cast flies. Anglers prefer nice light 9 weight rods and it's great fun. Our hosted trips offer complete trip planning from booking to airport transfers, and fishing alongside our guests.
Flights are easy to plan in/out of Merida, MX (MID) and originate out of Dallas, Houston, or Miami. American Airlines and United Airlines have daily services.

A Special Destination for Tarpon
Tarpon Town Fly Fishing operates out of the city of Campeche, Mexico. It's a long established outfitter focused on Tarpon. The waters surrounding Campeche are known as The Tarpon Coast, Tarpon Route, and Bahia del Sabalo (Bay of the Tarpon), and features nearly 100 miles of mangrove coast, hundreds of creeks, and sea-grass flats, making this geographic region ideal for producing big numbers of resident Tarpon.
Campeche is a cool town. It's much smaller and quieter than Cancun, but still offers some interesting tourist activities and is rich in both Mayan and Spanish history. Our itinerary offers flexibility for guests to dine as a group each night at a different restaurant and sample the local flavor and scenery.
The fishing setup is flats style sight fishing for big numbers of hungry tarpon in the 5 to 40 pound class. These fish are aggressive and it makes excellent fishing for beginning saltwater anglers. You'll get enough shots that if you screw it up.... don't worry! Another opportunity will swim your way in short order.

"My Tarpon Town experience was completely different from the Florida Keys. Lots of fish, low pressure, and they EAT. What they lack in size it is more than made up for in FUN."
The Tarpon Town Colonial home is located in the heart of the historic district, a block from the famous pedestrian 59th Street, and two blocks from the downtown plaza (Cathedral Square). The lodge features the most common modern amenities, while keeping the original architecture and decorations. There are three double rooms for up to six guests, with two full-size beds. Each room has their own bathroom with hot and cold water, including a spacious tile shower. You can enjoy the two courtyards that have manicured gardens and a swimming pool.

The Red's Hosted Experience
A Red's team member will travel with you and help make your experience the most efficient, rewarding, and best adventure we can. We're there to aid the lodge in coordinating ground transfers, assigning guides, meeting angler expectations, and helping problem solve should any challenges arise. Your host will mentor as necessary, work with the lodge's head guide to coordinate guide pairings, and make group wide decisions that best serve all Red's customers.
There is most often internet access, and we have an emergency contact number that you could be reached at if need be. Cell phones do not work down there. Just as well. If you absolutely need to stay in reach, bring a satellite messenger or phone.
