Some people seem to do OK with Tarpon on shrimp lures. The "Voodoo shrimp". My ideal Cavy day would be to see you do the slam, with Tarpon, Permit and Bonefish. Always great content. Nice one!
Awesome video! If you wanna come to Tampa, we have an awesome fishery! I’ll put ya on some snook or take ya offshore for some snapper and grouper. Cool to see you fishing Florida 💪🏼
Yeah I live in st pete. We can put him on tons of fish here at the moment. Are the tarpon eating the "pass crabs" at the skyway right now? I love going out there.
i Loved this guy since i started watching youtube as a kid seeing him fish america especially florida is just awesome to see i kinda freaked out the first time i saw him fish florida
Ya bro what great content! Tarpon are definitely a bucket fish for me, none here in Southeastern Ontario Canada lol. Somehow 1hr wasn't long enough. Great job Cavy.
When i saw this video, i was super pumped as it's pretty much the same style of fishing I do here in Aus. I chase Tarpon on a regular basis in ponds and lakes. Man, I wish ours grew as big as theres! Awesome video Cavy, hopefully next time you land that big Poon you're after 😉🤙🎣
Hey @CavyFishing , that thing at 22:30 we have here in Florida. We call them Leather Jacks. As you found out, they have terrible spines on the top and bottom of thier bodies. It is NOT a baby Mackerel, lol.
Spent 10 youthful formative years in florida. Best fishing ive ever done. Everywhere else is a big letdown! The mullet run is insane cavy! Big cobia and tarpon! Carrabelle, saint george island, apalachicola... also snook, speckled trout... and the fresh oysters... and the huge shrimp u can catch by the buckets if u have a cast net! The blue crab and stone crab!
Yeah good to be out of Mex, sucks it was not such a good trip. I blame it on not choosing my own spots! Anyways here in PR has been more fun! Cheers mate
Don’t know if you’re still here in the states but if you are you should try fishing by any boat docks where people filet a lot of fish. The huge tarpon hang out around cleaning stations and eat all the scraps people throw away. I’ve seen tarpon over 5 ft long weighing upwards of 125-140 pounds. Absolute units
I still can’t believe you was fishing in my neighborhood 🇵🇷 and fishing on the locals spots wish I could show you couple more spots for Big Resident Tarpon and Big Snooks near the ones in the video. And be Aware theirs a lot of alligators in almost every body of water in Puerto Rico I hook in to one specifically in one of the spots you were casting and seen a shark in the Lagoon also to answer your question 😅
Cavdog you are crazy!!! That water is nasty and you got in the water...now that's crazy!!! A white paddletail whith a 1/4 oz jighead or a weightless white fluke on a 5/0 hook would have given you a bunch of good hookups with those snooks and tarpon,i would have shown you a few places if we had coincided when you were here in my Island. You had fun nonetheless...
You would love coming to the Northern Territory during run-off we catch tarpon but you also get massive barramundi just of all the drains where the water is flowing off the roads
FLL airport Griffen road service road. I've passed by many times never thought of trying a line 😅 ty for showing me! I caught one two weeks ago on 595 sr84 new river canal on a blk/slvr rapapla #9
If you return in the not too distant future, I invite you to visit various points of the island since we have super exotic places and great fishing spots both on the coast and in the interior of the island.... Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🇵🇷🇵🇷 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Greeting bro you was fishing closet to where I live. I would haved like to meet you. But I miss the opportunity. Love all your video 💪🏼💪🏼🔥 I hope you got a lot of fun in the island and taste our gastronomy
@@CavyFishing hey legend! sorry mate! Had them finally arrive today 🤙 apparently some bs to do with australia being on the usps suspension list after speaking to local post! Cheering 🙂
That fish at 22:15 I believe is a leatherjacket (not your traditional dinner plate looking one), very similar to the look of a mackerel and yes those spikes have venom. I would definitely go get it checked if the pain is still there.
Cavy could you start listing the lures used in your videos that way we know which colors and sizes to buy ! Amazing video btw I love TARPON beautiful fish !
so who's gonna get cavy offshore for an over night swordfishing trip? Tarpon get very very keyed in on a certain food, be it 2" minnows red worms during that run they're weird that way. I've hooked 50+ lb tarpon jigging for pompano with 1/4 ounce tiny pompano jigs during the winter. They also love an easy meal. Just wind and jiggle, no big rod snaps, your soft plastics, keep em' a little higher in the water than you would think, and also smaller than you would think. back country big tarpon are a tough nut to crack.
Cavys idea of massive used to be 25kg GT, 20kg longie . These days Cavys idea of massive is 50cm 2kg tarpon. Wants one of the bigger ones but uses 5cm lures.. Still not a bad watch, love the enthusiasm.
Cavy taking his tarpon for a walk. On a side note, while you're in Fla. It would be cool to see a surf fishing collaboration with you and "Angler Up With Brandt" (on YT) in Pensacola, Fla. Catch, Clean, and Cook....
Cavy , You are Crazy for standing in the water in Florida. Angels must Be Watching You! Lots of Alligators everywhere. Be Safe We like Watching You. God Bless
Hey Cavy just a heads up next time you come to FL try a Vodoo shrimp. Some of the lures you use in Australia don’t work as well here. Like those hard stick baits don’t do as well for snook and tarpon it tends to scare them away for some reason.
oi cavy you should go hunting those areas where the alligator gar roam youd love that! no clue where that is or where you are or how long you there for LOL but that would be cool
And on those big snook their mouths are like sandpaper so you should try to get them in fairly quickly because they will fray through 60 pound test like it’s nothing
Nice video again, seems you are losing many fish on the jump, try to loosen the drag more, like in trout fishing, should let you keep the hooks set on the jumps. Cheers from Bulgaria.
Me and my oldest son joke around a lot being from New England talking about tarpon fishing like you guys are doing right now,is what is called Tarpon Fishing, some day hopefully we can go where about was this video shot?
Those baitfish that stung you are called “yellow tails or leather jackets” for obvious reasons, but yes they do sting and if they fin you, it injects a small amount of venom. Non lethal but enough to stink your wound 😂😅 it is painful for sure.
22:32 hey dude I'm pretty sure that's Oligoplites saurus. Often referred to as a leatherjacket (but leatherjacket is also a common name for a different species of trigger fish). Anyway, it's part of the Carangidae family, which you are very familiar with 😂
cavy if youre ever on the west coast of florida i can put you on snook over 40" and 30lb redfish near the tampa bay area. i have about 30 spots that all produce consistently
See Australia is on the other side of the world meaning that they are upside-down, when using a spinning rod and reel if you are right handed you grab the rod with your strong arm the right and wind the reel with your left
I hope you enjoyed our little but special Island Cavy👍🏻 do come again and explore it some more🇵🇷
Man as soon as i saw your video, i rolled up, grabbed a cup of coffee and the dog, walked out on the deck and fired up. Lets go
Fuck yeah
Ahh man! So good to hear that mate! Much appreciated, hope you enjoyed it yewww
@@CavyFishing always do brother
Hope it wasn't tobacco 😂
@dangerousbeans8067 that's disrespectful 🤣🤣🤣
Glad to see you enjoy the fishing in my island 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
Thanks mate! Hope can stay longer next time! Yew
You guys upload heaps of top quality stuff often. Killin it. 👍
Much appreciated bro

Always great content. Nice one!
The way cavy😂 says Tarpon gets me every time
Came here to comment this lmao. Its Tarp-in not Tarp-ahn
Yeah it’s so funny to hear a real ocka guy say something really poshly and then go back to speaking normally. Tar-pon
@@NickP8877 You realize he's from Australia, right? 😂
It's weird..the last like 3 videos Rob's Aquatics has been fishing for tarpon and snook too and he says tarpon weird sometimes..😅
@@Fodvorte I think it’s more than just an accent. Never heard any other aussies call them that
These vids are so high quality I can see you getting very popular soon.
Been awhile so hopefully soon hahaha
Haha I think he’s pretty popular already
Thats a dream and bucket list of fishing! I would love to get at least one big Tarpon and will be heading down next year to try.
Fishing is a grind man I'm glad you're showing that part
Awesome video! If you wanna come to Tampa, we have an awesome fishery! I’ll put ya on some snook or take ya offshore for some snapper and grouper. Cool to see you fishing Florida 💪🏼
Yeah I live in st pete. We can put him on tons of fish here at the moment. Are the tarpon eating the "pass crabs" at the skyway right now? I love going out there.
@@scottdouglas4725 awesome bro! tarpon are slowing down right now. there is still some around but not thick like spring/start of summer
@@ReelFloridaFishingChannel what do you mean by pass crabs I’ve never caught a tarpon and have been trying to catch one for the longest any tips?
So.. if im not an internet whore how can i find ya?…
@@still-tight-fishenget a dip net with a long handle and go to skyway and dip them right out the current
i Loved this guy since i started watching youtube as a kid seeing him fish america especially florida is just awesome to see i kinda freaked out the first time i saw him fish florida
Cheers dude!! Haha yeah was about time I came over to America to try fish! Quite different to what I normally do but good times none the less! Yew
@@CavyFishing hy ive been watching for years on years ngl even on other accounts ive always loves seeing you fish deadly current where the fish thrive
Ya bro what great content! Tarpon are definitely a bucket fish for me, none here in Southeastern Ontario Canada lol. Somehow 1hr wasn't long enough. Great job Cavy.
Yeah bro was a bucket list fish for me too! Your not so far away from them , definitely you should go try!! Plenty of places have them yewww
When i saw this video, i was super pumped as it's pretty much the same style of fishing I do here in Aus. I chase Tarpon on a regular basis in ponds and lakes. Man, I wish ours grew as big as theres!
Awesome video Cavy, hopefully next time you land that big Poon you're after 😉🤙🎣
If i had a dollar for every time I saw you comment on a tarpon video ben 😂

Mate another cracking vid! Love your work pal
That was a leatherjack Cav.. they have catfish like spiny fins on their bellies. Painful but harmless. Yew!
I thought leatherjacket was something else! But I was wrong haha that thing Stung a bit haha
They are venomous. We call them skipjack
Yep, leatherjacket. Got em in Texas, too!
We call them thorn bellies!
They also call them thorn bellies and are used as bait
awesome video champion, great stuff,

You had fun nonetheless...
We use the term “tea-baggin” as well for somethin else. 😎😭❤️🤙🏽 Beautiful Tarpon Cav dog!
I wanted to suggest a bait for you Cavy. It's called a Vudu shrimp. They work amazing. Great video
Cavy, the small fish with the yellow tail is called a thornbelly here in Forida. Good for tarpon bait on the beach!
Cracks me up everytime watching cavy use a lefty 😅
Poor mate Cavy! You got introduced to a Leatherjacket fish! Yes they have a proper sting and it lasts for like 30 minutes!
lol @44:17 is like when walt grizwald is fishing in the hoover dam. next you'll be fishing in the area 51 cooling pond lol
Growing up in Florida as a kid even during the 70s never disappointed when fishing
Must have been crazy!
You would love coming to the Northern Territory during run-off we catch tarpon but you also get massive barramundi just of all the drains where the water is flowing off the roads
Has to be done!
@@CavyFishing yeah mate, hit me up. I’ll drive you around for free. We can have some fun.
Awesome video. That tiny fish with spikes. Is poisonous. As you know. Lol. It's called a Skip Jack.
Cavy you are the man!!!!
Thanks man! Much appreciated 🤙🏾
FLL airport Griffen road service road. I've passed by many times never thought of trying a line 😅 ty for showing me! I caught one two weeks ago on 595 sr84 new river canal on a blk/slvr rapapla #9
very cool those tarpons. next mission: get a giant on a fly setup haha
The Silver King has you! Stay safe Cavy, hurricane heading your way, probably by Wednesday this week.
Thanks for the heads up! I’ll be out by then I think!!
If you return in the not too distant future, I invite you to visit various points of the island since we have super exotic places and great fishing spots both on the coast and in the interior of the island.... Greetings from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 🇵🇷🇵🇷 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Yes cav dawg as soon as I seen this video I sparked up as usual and watched the ledge legend ❤❤❤❤
Greeting bro you was fishing closet to where I live. I would haved like to meet you. But I miss the opportunity. Love all your video 💪🏼💪🏼🔥 I hope you got a lot of fun in the island and taste our gastronomy
Yeah mate, was good fun! I think back to saltwater fishing again soon! Yewww
Taa..PON, Great video cavy
Absolutely love the videos! Wouldnt order your lures again, been waiting for nearly a month for them to arrive now 👍👍
Ive purchased many times... Salty Passion has become one of my go to lures... never had a problem
For real??? Did you email the brand email, probably gone missing from the sounds of that. Normally it’s super fast
@@CavyFishing hey legend! sorry mate! Had them finally arrive today 🤙 apparently some bs to do with australia being on the usps suspension list after speaking to local post! Cheering 🙂
you would love coming to the Indonesia man👍🙏
Excellent video 🇵🇷
Cav dog on the SILVER KING!!! Better yet, canal ones. We gotta get you to the florida keys for those suckers.
that thing that spiked you is a leatherjacket those spikes at the bottom are venomous so glad you figured it out 😂
You have to try fishing in norway😁Love you and your videos
That was a fun watch CavDog. What’s next river monsters in the Amazon? Or head home and barrow a dingy and head out to an island would be rad. 🤙🏼
Island I think next! Back to salt yewww
Best fishing adventure vlog 🎣 yewww
Wow dude, I watched Survivor beast 🌴and wondered where are you gone (glad to the your new channel )
Ninja turtle system ! Niiiiiiiiice
Making me nervous walking on pipes in your crocs! You must be part billy goat! Lol
Pretty much a Billy goat mixed with an orangutan 🦧
Hi cavy love from philippines 🫡🤙🏽 the soft plastice you use is the main bait im using for snakehead in here 🎣 they are so fired up for that
SNOOOOOOOOOOOK! Gotta love it!
You were in PR and didn’t give me a call 😂🤙
Big Fish 👏👏🎣
Good to see a 1hr long video post
Nice vidéo bro !!
That fish at 22:15 I believe is a leatherjacket (not your traditional dinner plate looking one), very similar to the look of a mackerel and yes those spikes have venom. I would definitely go get it checked if the pain is still there.
Over here in Texas we call the fish at 22:40 leather jacks and they hurt like hell when you get spiked by em.
Yeeeeeewwwwwwwww, sick mate
Well done
Cavy could you start listing the lures used in your videos that way we know which colors and sizes to buy ! Amazing video btw I love TARPON beautiful fish !
Good idea bro! I could also list them in the descriptions! Thanks mate
The fish that stuck you and it burned is called a leather jacket or horn belly. Good king mack bait
That fish with the yellow tail is called a leatherjacket it’s a type of mackerel
Hahahahaha Awesomenessssssss....That was Badassnesssssss
The small one might be the biggest one here I caught in Malaysia 😢 nice video bro 🎉👍🏻
Nice tarpon

I think they are in Puerto Rico
Buds an ausi, cavy sleeps next to crocs, he kisses them goodnight, he gives them beers

Just bought a hand full of salty passions and a hoodie, your lures ask the fish to come Yew🤟
Legend! I actually saw that order! Thanks mate! Good luck with them ❤️
Fishing fresh and salt,feel real confident with your design to work both. 😎As my uncle said,pay attention can't pay your bills
nice cavvyyyy
I think they're called leather jacket. It's part of the Jack family and yes, those things really hurt.
That fish that fined you is called a lether jacket (crazyFish) they have those two spikes on bottom that will light u up feels like a cat fish sting
Cavy the fish with yellow tail is a skip jack two poisonous spikes on top and bottom
"I've got another TARP ON"
Those Meows are so mesmerising, should say Meow instead of yeow
Hahahahah
Dream fish right there
Come to Barbados 🇧🇧 bro catch some big permit and tarpon 👍yeeeww!!
Is a Monsta!
And you should find a good running spillway that connects to the ocean I always catch good fish in those
And on those big snook their mouths are like sandpaper so you should try to get them in fairly quickly because they will fray through 60 pound test like it’s nothing
Nice video again, seems you are losing many fish on the jump, try to loosen the drag more, like in trout fishing, should let you keep the hooks set on the jumps.

See Australia is on the other side of the world meaning that they are upside-down, when using a spinning rod and reel if you are right handed you grab the rod with your strong arm the right and wind the reel with your left
Correct
Correct, good thing is I'm left handed. So for me i fish 100% correctly, unlike many other Aussies.
@@CavyFishing Ok good answer keep that in mind when you loose a fish you may be using right handed hooks
😂😂😂
Wrong use you're strong hand to reel you can always use two hands when the fish is running then you got youre strong arm to pump them in. 😂
