Launched early working bait pods for Kings. Well we didn't find Kingfish, we found Silver Kings. The tarpon was lightly hitting the plug making me think that something small was on. I grabbed the rod and pulled tight. I was rewarded by an incredible first jump and the fight was on. Thanks to the assistance of Cooknfish and a good friend named Dave, I was able to land the tarpon and get the photographic proof.

Big Manatee River tarpon! Hooked him while I was on a dock snook fishing and he started taking all the line off my pole. I had my buddy throw me a boogie board and he went to dragging me to the middle of the river. An hour into the fight a boat was driving by, and I yelled for help. They came over to get me and we got it into the boat. We took it back to the dock and there was twenty people waiting to see if I had caught it! This was taken right by Emerson Point - I'm in the middle of this photo.

I took Mike out on the river to be my photographer. I have been on a good tarpon bite but never had anyone there to take my picture. It turned out that I had to play cameraman for him that day.

Caught this tarpon on the first day of my Easter holiday to Islamorada. The best fishing experience of my life as it was pitch black and caught it completely on my own merit. Had the fish on for about half an hour and must have jumped at least 10 ten times. Simply awesome.
