Today I had a great trip with Paul and his little 10 year old boy Thomas. We started off getting some live pilchards and then hitting a tarpon spot but although they were there they were not interested in feeding. Wearing thin on Thomas's patience tarpon fishing we hit another spot and absolutely crushed the Jacks. First fish of the trip was about a 5 to 7 lb Jack and next to the boat a giant Barracuda came and ate it up leaving only the bloody head. Quickly I put the bloody head on a big rod with some wire and dropped it behind the boat in the strong current and just let it sit. As we continued to catch jacks and watching them blow up on our bait the rod went off and we were on. After 150 almost 200 yd run we had to chase the big bull shark down and 10 minutes later the hook was straightened out. Bull sharks 1 us-0. We went back and repeated the process continued to catch Jacks and within minutes we were hooked up to another big bull shark which ended up breaking us off. Well as they say third time's a charm and that was the case as once again a few minutes later we were back on a big bull shark and this one we got to the boat, in the hundred fifty plus pound range. We wrapped up the day continuing to crush the Jacks and absolutely wore out Thomas. He had a blast so did we and we are scheduled to fish again on Monday. Capt.
