Hunting for baby tarpon with a fly rod.

throwing gurgler for baby tarpon

[@derekspace]

Yes, getting them to strike is one thing, getting them in the boat is a whole different story! Enjoyed the video!

Looked like fun. Videos like this are making me want to move to Florida.

Hey buddy, an inexpensive pair of hemostats works wonders with deep hooked fish like that. Nice fly!

[@paulwong3359]

Baby sized Tarpons are the challenge to keep on the hook and bring in here too. Hook sizes and Build of the Flies too! Good persistence !

Cool vid

That EAT at 7:44 was pretty cool.

Loved the sound of that first strike!.... I’ve always dreamed of a juvenile tarpon trip.... where was this ?

[@michaelbacile8439]

Lmao they were playin’ with you man, they’re tricky. Still haven’t caught one myself. I’ve never seen that many hits in one day. I get 3-4 total if I’m lucky

Nice video. What fly line are you using? Seems to shoot pretty good

[@pimpoftheflies5473]

thanks! was using a rio bonfish quick shooter

[@erehwon777]

Enjoying you videos. How shallow can you go with the Hobie fins underneath?

[@pimpoftheflies5473]

probably like a foot, but you can also peddle softly and not allow your fins to go as deep to go a little shallower.

Where did you shoot this vid?

[@pimpoftheflies5473]

Shot it in the intercostal close to Saint Petersburg
