    Done a lot of kayak fishing in my day but never for something like tarpon. Battling that solo on the water is ridiculous. What a catch!

    The fight of your life John? This one goes down to the books!

      No. I've landed a couple larger ones with the yak. I landed a monster from shore around 10 years ago and the length/girth calculation came out to 151#. But every single one of these is special!

    John, thanks for take me out for a ride. That was one hell of a battle. How’s the damn stunt of a tarpon especially the kayak man thank you.

    Nice work, my favorite as well. Such a challenge to land them, a lot has to go right.

      No matter how hard I squeeze, I just can't hold them with one hand when they thrash!

    Great Fish John. Never caught a Tarpon but I would feel undergunned with a 2000 class reel - but that's just me. But obviously its do-able

    Nice job, there were not as many fish there at the bridge this fall , buddy marked a bunch last week there. I fished a bunch above 31 bridge by owl creek for 3 months late summer into the fall.

      Thanks for that info. This trip was by far the least number of fish I'd ever seen there. I was beyond lucky to land one.

      @@JohnSkinnerFishing I know you don’t have side scan but some times they are not showing and you see piles of them. Bomber magnums in river fire tiger have worked really well besides the fly rod for me. See ya up there.

    I thought that this was going to turn into a "to be continued..." video production.

    Nice fish there, nice videos. But I can’t believe you would turn your back on the striped bass and call tarpon your favorite fish. May your season ahead be full of bluefish and weeds.

    I remember you had a Band-it for your elbow a while back. How is the elbow(s) after fight like this? I’m just watching and my elbows are screaming louder than your drag!

    Awesome video! What was the water temperature? Barometer? I have a spot inshore that I have seen numerous tarpon on livescope.

      I use it jigging in the fall, but we had nothing but wind and the fishing was off. I'll use it in the everglades for grouper.
