An hour and twenty minutes later I finally got him to the pier and released him. We estimated his weight at over 150lbs. I was literally too tired to return today.

I got several pictures from tourists of me fighting the fish, but none when I had him laid up beside the pier. If you will pm your cell number, I will text what I have. I can't post pictures. Thanks

I hooked that one on a swim bait that Kevin and I put together. I'm going back in the morning, but supposed to be 90% chance of thunderstorms. Tarpon bite great in bad weather, but I don't like lightning!

Or maybe hanging a tarpon is the only way I can get their attention!!
