Big Tarpon from the Beach - Video & Pix

Post by Blacktip Hunter »

I brought a friend down from Canada, who had never fished in the Ocean before. This is what we caught on his first day!

Nice catch. I have people in town right now too. I hope I can put them on even a fraction of the fish you got. I really wish I knew what you were using for set up and bait. :toast:

I used the Olympus Stylus 850sw, but I did edit the photos.

I was using squid and ballyhoo for bait. The jack was caught on a 4/0 mutu light wire and the tarpon was caught on an 8/0 Gamakatsu octopus J hook.
