Tarpon for bait!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Tarpon for bait!

Post by Guest »

I am heading Tarpon fishing in March and was told by the Captain we had a chance at seeing huge hammerheads who come in and feed on the tarpon. I have had 3 pound walleye fall victim to musky but seeing a 120 pound tarpon destroyed at boatside is just too much!

Bull sharks terrify me. They are the most agresive shark out there. Apparently they have higher testosterone levels than any other creature resulting in high levels of aggression. Wouldn't wanna fall off the boat with a school of them around! :shock:

Did this video take a while for everyone else to load? I can't get it to work? Am I just not waiting long enough you think? I have high speed, so go figure :!:

Took about 30 seconds for me WIG.

That is my fear and fate, I know it. I will someday be eaten by a fish. This is how it will end for me. :?

For those of you who have seen the movie "Open Water", and managed to stay awake, I think a scene like this would have made the movie a little more tolerable. Man what I would have given to see those two annoying fools get torn apart by a monster shark!

That video is just freakin' awesome!

Go get 'em crazyhook! We all know you don't get that name because of your punching ability. ;) PATOW!

Hawg! Another first! We agree twice in one day! :lol: :lol:

Pink Lady and I went to the show to see Open Water....I have a huge facination for sharks. This movie was hands down, the WORST movie I have ever seen in my entire life! When it started, the seats were about half full, by the end there were only 6 other people that made it through it. :lol: :lol: God it was awful.

Markus, should we push our luck and go for 3?? :)

By far the worst movie ever made. Even the unnecessary nude scene didn't make up for the rest of the movie. I can't believe Blockbuster had 50 copies of that movie. At least 50 other people had to suffer like we did!

I'm planning on going shark fishing in NS for a few days this summer Markus. Any chance you're planning on heading out East this summer? If so, we should try to coordinate. Let me know.

Crazy, not 100% sure on MTL yet. May have a tournament. We'll talk tomorrow.
