OH MY GOD!!!!!

Post by RockinNReelin »

This will be a weekend I'll NEVER forget!!!!! I launched Sat morning at 5:30 am and hooked up with my brother on the river. We must have paddled/peddled 20 miles and all we had to show for it was a dink trout and my bro caught a few rat reds. There were large tarpon rolling by the bridge and juvies rolling at another spot in the river.

The next morning got up at 4:30 and on the water by 5:00 paddled out to where the juvies had been rolling the day before. It was just about safe light when I started trolling a lip bait. Not long after the rod was almost ripped from my hands!!!! I screamed, think I peed a little, the drag was screaming, fish jumped and that was the end of the excitement!!!! I JUMPED MY VERY FIRST TARPON EVER!!!!! I can't begin to give you size or weight as I was so freakin' excited I was shaking to death!!! What I can tell you is that 60 seconds (or less) was the best sex I've EVER had!!! lol It was Incredible and bittersweet.

I met up with my brother a while later and here are some pics from the rest of the day which was not very stellar but it's still a day i'll never forget!

Congratulations Sharon. Now you know why everyone is so crazy about Tarpon fishing.
Being out on the water in the kayak is the prize. Catching fish is the bonus.
