Texas Tarpon!

Post by Killerbee »

Ok, I can't keep it in anymore! 1 fish leadered,1fishlanded,3fish lost.

Yall will have to be patient with me on the video. I work all week and this is the first time I have ever shot video or edited. I will post the video as soon as I get it uploaded.

Always wanted to catch a tarpon but never thought it would be in texas out of a yak!

It was crazy! I wish I had known what I know now. I would have had two gopros instead of one. Missed some amazing jumps. That ram camera mount is made to be static I think. I fought with it the entire trip trying to get it moved around.

I think that I will have one mounted to my head next time and the ram mount facing me.

Congrats on the Tarpon. I've hooked several from the jetties but never landed one. That's just excellent right there.
