Tarpon, that was on my mind today and thankfully David was thinking the same thing. After the last few days I nailed down the tarpon pattern and we hit it straightaway. Armed with a 10wt fly rod in hand and a black fly I located the tarpon right away and we went for it. Setting up on the schools David made some solid casts into the schools and was quickly rewarded with a hook up on a solid 60 lber that gave us a big jump before spitting the fly. Ok, lick our wounds and get back to work. A few schools later David hooks a solid fish that didn't jump but made a long run to open water. Ah, open water, time to relax. Oh wait, the fish is rushing the boat. David did a great job of keeping the light tight and the tarpon ran straight for a dock and broke us off. NO!!!! Well, that was the last hook up and we ended the day taking a few shots at some bonefish. I want revenge on these tarpon!
