    Tarpon are such an impressive fish, and the fact that both Jeremy and his guide went for them with a fly and in a tiny inflatable craft, mad respect.

    One of the best episodes ever. I especially like that it shows his exasperation after losing the fish the first time after a four-hour battle and being completely exhausted. It doesn't show it here but just when I thought he was about to completely lose it he just says not quite, not quite, not quite. And then he comes back the next day after a bad thunderstorm and does it all again with an even bigger tarpon. That's what you call true grit, and determination. I also like that he has to use a weird method to catch this fish using an inflatable boat and flippers dangling in the water underneath the boat to get around in and having to fly fish which he wasn't real comfortable doing either and learning how to do it successfully. Great episode.

    It’s amazing how similar this fish is to the arapaima. Both are large fish close to, if not at the top, of their respective food chains, both are air breathers, and both can cause injury by slamming head-on into people.

    It puts it all into perspective when you are fishing for these monsters in open water and your main concern is the hammerhead sharks that will come in for the easy kill when the fish is close to the boat after a long battle. The area Jeremy is fishing looks like an estuary where the young tarpon spend the early years of their lives before venturing out into open water. A lot of those areas are protected.

    • @xtherealest
      @xtherealest 7 месяцев назад

      Losing a big fish is a moment that you just never forget. That memory lasts a lifetime. As a kid I went fishing for pike with my dad and I remember getting a strike after pulling my soft plastic bait above a fallen tree that was in the water. I knew the tree was there and so I knew there's a big chance I'll get snagged but after the first strike when I didn't hook the fish the next cast a big hit and my reel was rushing but it stopped after like 2-3 seconds, I was convinced it was a fish and I kept reeling and my rod was bent that it looked like it was about to snap, it was very strange I tried to reel in but nothing, my rod kept bending, reel kept screaming and I literally couldn't reel more otherwise the rod would just break, it was just as if I was snagged into the tree I just couldn't move it so I though I guess I'm just snagged so I tried to unsnag it and nothing for like 3 minutes of trying. Then I felt that it released so I started to reel in and suddenly a big pike jumped above the water with my lure in it's mouth and as the like was shaking her head in the air the bait just flew out. My heart literally stopped at that moment. Its worth mentioning that I was still a kid and even fished with a telescopic carp rod but still. I saw the whole pike as it jumped and it was bigger than anything I've ever caught and bigger by a lot, the pike didn't even know it was hooked. Even after many years I still think of how big the pike could've been. If I didn't try to unsnag it I probably would've caught that fish. My dad was fishing a spot that was like 30 meters away from me and I remember how he didn't believe me that it actually happened haha. Craziest experience ever, never had a fish that big on the line ever since, that thing was huge. I only saw it from a distance but even far away it seemed pretty big. Those are the moments why I decided to start fishing. Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to catch a fish that big. Next year is my chance.
