I just got back from Big Pine Key, Florida and had the opportunity to fish for Tarpon for 4 days with my dad and two uncles. In all, we hooked and fought approximately 25 tarpon, and got 8 of them to the boat estimated at 100-120 pounds. All fishing was done at the Bahia Honda Bridge and it's tough to keep the fish away from the pilings. We also caught a few snapper, grouper, jackfish, and 1 almoco jack as well. None of us had ever landed a Tarpon before and everyone agreed that they have incredible strength! We will definitely be back again next year! I will add some pics when I get them....
