Pull your line sharply to make the foam head \"pop\" against the water, then let it sit still for a few seconds. Most strikes happen during the pause when the fly looks like a stunned baitfish.

The magic of the EP Tarpon SP happens on the pause; the lightweight materials allow the fly to hover and slowly sink, while the tail continues to undulate. For cruising tarpon, cast well ahead of the fish and begin long, smooth strips to get their attention. If the fish follows but does not commit, a sharp strip followed by a sudden stop can often trigger an aggressive reaction strike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhen To Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fly shines in shallow water or when tarpon are cruising high in the water column. It is particularly useful on bright, sunny days when fish are inspecting flies closely, as the realistic profile and natural movement can fool picky eaters. It is also a top choice for \"laid up\" tarpon that are suspended and stationary, where a heavy fly would sink too quickly and spook them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe love the EP Tarpon SP because it solves the problem of fouling that plagues many long-tailed saltwater flies. The materials are tied to resist wrapping around the hook bend, ensuring your fly is fishing correctly on every cast. Its ability to suspend in the strike zone longer than heavier patterns gives lethargic or wary fish more time to decide to eat, increasing your hook-up ratio on tough days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComparisons\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEP Tarpon SP Fly vs EP Tarpon Toad:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Tarpon Toad is designed to push a lot of water and hover almost indefinitely, making it great for murky water or very slow presentations. The EP Tarpon SP Fly has a sleeker profile that sinks slightly faster and \"swims\" more realistically on the strip.
