Outstanding Tarpon Action All The Way!

I have had the guys from Fox fishing with me this last few days. The Tarpon action has been outstanding so far, Cathy Fox as usual is our star angler with 6 releases,  Followed by Cliff with 5 and Freddy with 2.

Day 1 we explored the backcountry and came up with 2 Tarpon. Cliff had a giant over 150lbs. Day 2 we really got into them. Hooked 11. Lost 2 in the bridge pilings and landed 7 for the day. Yesterday we played hide and seek with the weather. Tropical downpours were all around but got out at 10am and still managed 4 Tarpon. Live mullet fishing has been a blast literally..

Cathy Fox used the Fox Sport Fishing EOS 30 reel fitted on the 5 piece Tarpon Spincast rod. Cliff and Freddy are using the Sailfish Trek rod and Diablo 750 spinning reel. Check out the shots below, non stop action!
