I decided to make it a quick trip and head out to my favorite spot. I make the paddle out to my spot and see a few fish rolling. Two minutes into my arrival I was hooked on my first fish. Faught him for a few and brought him yak side for a clean release.
I went 5 for 5 on Tarpon this day with one fish giving me a great show! Fish jumped over a dozen times with one really close or better yet near miss of hitting me and landing inside my kayak.
Than shark week began a little to early! After bringing in my last Tarpon I watch it get wild again yak side and knew something was wrong. Sure enough my experience with these fish and their behavior was right on! A 7 foot foot bull-shark came charging in out of the wood works and ate my tarpon with only two bites feet from my yak.I have no pic's as I was in shock and mesmerized by this display of sheer power.
Soon after that I hook a big nurse shark. By far the widest one I have ever caught!
All and all a great day on the water after a long week of work!
