TARPON at Econfina
Posted: May 19th, 2008, 8:23 am
Ashley Mock...Zara Spook...100 yards of line...100 pound TARPON...20 leaps in the air...Steve Taylor with a camera phone...bye bye TARPON...hello empty spool...bye bye pics(did not hit SAVE button).
We saw a couple dozen feeding on mullet.
The fish was hooked good and probably would have been landed. The time I spent taking pictures used up too much chase time.
It was my fault the big one got away.
But, after all...it was a trout tournament. Tarpon don't count at weigh in.
