OK BFW - nice tarpon but why did you call it " Freshwater King" ?

I am going to search for them in the near salt portion of freshwater Cape Coral canals as I have found at least one culvert where they can cross from salt to fresh.

I am still looking for tarpon to show up here where I found some that size last year while paddling the creeks and some flats drop offs.

I read where the big ones have arrived at Boca Grande Pass. It is a zoo out there - not my thing.
