Title: Tarpon, Redfish, Bluefish, Jack Crevalle, & Sharks
Post by: Stoner on October 03, 2012, 01:42:16 PM
Went fishing over the weekend; one day we targeted bull Redfish and the other two days targeted fish in the surf. I had a good friend from Tennessee come down for a weekend of fishing. From the beach we caught Redfish, Tarpon, Bluefish, Jack Crevalle, and Blacktip Sharks. I fought the Tarpon for 58 minutes before I had it up on the beach. It almost spooled me, it took 400 yards line and I was seeing the steel in the bottom of the spool. On another rod we almost got spooled when the fish broke the leader. Overall a good weekend fishing.
The first few photos are from a boat but the rest of the photos are from the beach.
