After getting that fish into the cooler I am casting around a few times trying to locatesome morem bamm a good strike, i pull back to set the hook---nothin--before i could reel in the slack from the first hit bammm! another strike no need to set set this time---the reel mwas screaming a second or two later the water exploded and a large Tarpon launched itself about 6 ft into tyhe sky, I got 2 more good jumps as the line (20 lb braided) dissapeared and the mono backing was righy behind it, It eas gwetting near the end if the spool so I tried to brake the spool s0me with my hand----baD MOVE pow1 THE MONO SAID tHAT BIG A FISH ON GULP. in a kayak
