Did some inland fishing on the Indian River last week. Caught my first tarpon and then my son-in-law caught one over twice as big. Fun as hell. Couldn’t even get his in the boat. Caught a stud triple tail that turned into an awesome dinner for two families that night. Got into some snook and specs as well. Dang good day on the water. banana

good job, I think triple tail rank very high on the good eating scale. Fun to catch also. That is a good size tarpon to catch, big ones can
resemble work to land.

On medium-heavy spinning gear that tarpon was all the fish my SiL could deal with. 12 minute battle to get him boat side. Wish I had a video of the initial jump he made. Full on tail wagger.

Sort of. Guide knew of some structure they like to hang near and we dropped some cut bait right on his head.
