Tarpon at Keaton?

I forgot to mention the 4 foot tarpon that inhaled my buddy's jerkbait Saturday morning and went absolutely crazy, jumping out of the water 3 times before it shook the hooks. Are tarpon very common around Keaton? I don't remember anyone mentioning one in a post.

Only a couple occasions have I seen them bust the surface, never hooked one.

I got into one last year on a jerk bait and 10lb test. He was about 6'. We chased him with the boat for about 20 min. I don't think he knew he was hooked. He only jumped once at the end and threw it.
