We were targeting tarpon so the leader was 40 lb. -the fight was only a couple of minutes. Luckily I was able to turn his head soon and keep him from running into some root balls. I did hook a few tarpon but never got one to the boat. Had a marginal shot at a permit, but whacked the bones. I can’t get back soon enough.
Thanks Zach…………..I am officially off the market. However, I landed a good one. She is all for me taking off to NC to chase tailing reds and AJ’s off shore before the wedding, and we will be making the triangle hauling the drift boat for the honeymoon. We will spend a night in Jackson, Irwin, Island Park, then back home through the Park.
