May 22, 2014 Report

Day two with Greg and today we fished out of Key Biscayne much further north than yesterday. The goal was to get him on tarpon in order for him to the experience the silver range at the end of the line. While the action started slow, it got better by 7AM when he hooked a monster 100+lb tarpon. Three huge jumps later and the tarpon was off to the races. He was out over 150 yards before we knew it. As the fight settled we kept it on a short leash close to the boat and laughed as he dragged my skiff around. However, 15 minutes into the fight the tarpon made a dash for a series of bouys where he eventually broke us off. Heart broken we redrifted the area and got a second bite but the fish came off instantly. We ended the day fishing for sharks.
