Probably 250 pounds. I used to catch them outside Port Everglades using 15lb Bonito as bait with a wire leader. Hammerhead seem to be opportunistic predators, feeding on the ebb tide near inlets. Released them of course but fascinating creature to see up close.
Tarpon approx. 48" HH 7'+ Tarpon is a bit more than 50% of the length of the HH. On a side note, I had a HH swim up to me and I threw a live pilchard at it and it scurried away like a lil' scared bunny
watching this clip really pisses me off, i'm an avid angler and to watch these to bozo's stress that trophy fish out like that was completely unnecessary, not only were they ill equipped but the tarpon should have been landed immediately, photos taken and returned for future anglers.....ROOKIES that got lucky!!
That was ridiculous... and I'm an avid fisherman. So it's not a "don't sport fish" issue. That was pure irresponsibility and idiots at large, captain and fisherman alike.
Really great example of how NOT to treat a magnificent sportfish. Fishing in a dangerous area, and prolonging the fight until the fish was completely exhausted as well as endangering it with the proximity of the shark instead of just cutting it loose - all for the sake of a couple of close-up photos.
While I would agree, fish really dont have emotions. And those things are hard to fight. Center consoeles litterally exist to fight fish and let you walk around the whole boat. I used to sport fish but personally dont anymore, Id rather eat what I catch
Feel very bad how that tarpon was handled. They were more interested in footage than actually releasing the fish. Why did it take them so long to dehook and revive it? I bet that fish did not survive, it was too exhausted to swim and seemed to be in shock. There were numerous times it could have been released much sooner.
Why do you not ask the type of rod and line strength used ... any angler knows how much that affects the outcome, duration etc. when it comes to fishing larger game fish. Again this must be the 200th + ignorant comment on here. Bejesus, what are they putting in our tap water these days
@@JCMIAINTL it doesn't even matter what type of gear was used you don't fish in the inlet, let alone a dangerous inlet like Haulover, and you certainly do not fight a fish like this to pure shock. They spent way too much time worried about getting footage than actually releasing it correctly and the vast majority of competent fisherman would agree...foo.
@@teesamataua4028: I agree and I was thinking the same thing. I figured they didn't use a gaff because they were going to release the fish and they didn't want to injure it buy why they didn't use a net is even more puzzling.
@@sopmod556mm9 Big fish like this roll in nets and they get caught in the fins and gill plate creating chaos. I never use a net and would rather take the chance that the fish gets away.
@@sopmod556mm9 interesting that they possibly didn't want to injure the Fish. Yet, reeled it on against its will with a big hook in its mouth. Definitely some contradiction there.
Others have commented but I have to chime in - list of things NOT to do: -NEVER try to follow a hooked fish through a busy, dangerous inlet - they put every one in danger - themselves, other boaters and the fish -If you are a sportsman, NEVER fight an exhausted fish that long because: a. the fish is highly unlikely to survive even if it does manage to swim off b. a fish that tired is called shark-bait. They just can't swim fast enough to evade and attack. -NEVER fight a big fish from a small boat without a life jacket - just check out the many videos of people getting pulled overboard from much larger boats -NEVER leave the helm unattended in the entire situation - Haulover, boat traffic, large active fish, stupid angler leaning far overboard, almost always off balance, active shark. -NEVER hang over the side of the boat (with no life jackets and no one at the helm!) when there is an active shark in the area. Having a shark take a tarpon at boatside is COMMON and the shark doesn't bother with little details like what's fish and what's human arm. -Neither the anglers nor most of the viewers have ever seen a shark take a tarpon. It is explosive, the take could easily rock the boat enough for the anglers to go over the side. It's common for sharks to take half a 6' tarpon in one bite. Sure, bigger shark than the one that got into the video but no-one should doubt that there are plenty of much larger sharks in the immediate area. -ALWAYS assume that once you have attracted the attention of one shark, there are plenty of others that have come over to see what's going on -How big was the tarpon? Well, as big as it was ever going to get because there is no way it survived that abuse. Above all - CUT THE DAMN LINE immediately when you start to jeopardize the safety of the anglers, the rest of the boating public and the prize fish.
have you ever even fished and wound up with a fish like that on your line? beyond the over use of cameras instead of watching out for themselves, there was nothing on the fish side that was cruel in the slightest, in fact they acted as responsibly as possible towards the fish. They didnt haul it out for pics inducing more stress to the fish. They made sure to remove the tackle from the fish. They held the fish until it revived itself and was able to swim away under its own power. Exactly what was cruel to the fish?
Incompetence. Abusing the tarpon. Obstructing traffic in one of the most dangerous inlets. All for the sake of making it on Wavy Boats. This is what not to do 101. If they really wanted to get some footage, they should have just drove directly into the rocks.

I absolutely HATE guys that fish in an inlet. They pose a hazard to navigation and are generally just a nuisance. The worst are those that actually tie up to channel markers though.
The inlet is 370' wide and boats rarely go 100' on either side unless if they are PWC, fishing, or simply wish to avoid the wide center. Do you have any local knowledge regarding Baker's Haulover? Would love to hear back; howeevr, I believe I already know the answer ... prove me wrong please. :))
Fish don't have a prefrontal cortex and can't rationalise suffering or misery. That fish is back in the water slaying baitfish. She'll be OK so don't worry.
Regardless of how I feel about this video, that's horseshit. All you have to do is look at an octopus that has no brain as we know one, how intelligent & analytical they are for that argument not to hold water (haha). Obviously they don't process like we do, but it was just proven they absolutely do feel fear & pain. Some of the worst was when being taken out of the water & allowed to spend up to ½ an hour suffocating to death. Their lives should be treated as ANY other creature you would eat - meaning a quick & as painless as possible death.
@@stillstormie7222 They let the fish go so there was no death at all. I don't even think it was legal to keep regardless. None of what I said was horseshit either. Even plants/vines can respond/defend against predators or navigate their way up a trellis and they don't even have a brain.
Way too many people like this. Idiotic place to fish, no understanding of the word “angling”, and for Gods sake open the freaking bail to let the Tarpon save itself if you know that little about landing one. A Bull Shark would have ended that in one pass. Luckily a Hammer has its mouth on the bottom so it needed to basically mount that fish to kill it. Probably died anyway, after a googin does that they don’t have the strength to rejoin the group before becoming a target in one way or another. Nice finish, he acted like he scored a goal. Sad.
Anybody else wishing one of those bozos went overboard with the hammerhead? Clowns, fishing in the inlet mouth and not having clue what to do when they caught
@@JCMIAINTL well first thing is make sure you are fishing away from boat traffic, this is just common sense and minimises risk to other boat users. With regard the fish, they were not equipped to quickly land and unhook the fish, a fish of that magnificence needs to be handled properly not dragged around until exhausted and then treated to a bodged unhooking.
One minute we're watching folks with more money than brains stuff their bows into the waves and the next were watching National Geographic. I agree, horrible place to drop a line or chase a catch.
Spoiler Alert! That fish was dead within the hour. Overplayed and completely exhausted it, no respect for it whatsoever. But I'm sure the googans got some great footage with that chesty though!!
Total over played the fish and then when they got him next to the boat, no rush to get a pic and release. No let’s tire and stress the fish out even more. Rookies
I see TH-cam is putting out a survey asking what we DON'T like about comments on TH-cam. I personally like all comments on TH-cam , even the offensive ones. I may not like every opinion , but the right to say what you want is , to me, sacrosanct. Don't mess with TH-cam comments. Thank you Wavy. I enjoy watching.
Two guys who do not know what they are doing, they know the shark is around and are just interested in filming, cut the line and hope the fish can swim away instead of jerking around wasting time
Spot on. These guys are not true sportsmen. They should have quickly got the fish released. He probably won’t survive since they screwed around so long with this magnificent fish.
Yes in comment higher up someone said The Tarpon did not survive from all of the time wasted taking pictures, and it washed up on the Rocks within 20 minutes of being played to complete Exhaustion, and then not doing a correct recovery by getting the boat moving and holding The Fish while water is passing through it's Gills. But what great Drone Piloting by Wavy! Now back to watching Meatheads navigating The Inlet !
I was half expecting this guy's line to get cut by another boat passing in the inlet. A super inconsiderate place to be fishing especially with the wrong tackle for a Tarpon that big. I'm not a fan of tiring out fish that you can't even keep legally on the line like that.
You have no clue! The inlet in over 1200' Long starting on the East side of the bridge and 370' Wide at the point they were hooked to the Large Pilchard ... they stayed on the North Side throughout which is considerably shallower and not used by boats to enter or exit the inlet although PWCs use that side.
Omg look at me I caught a fish, I gotta take 50 thousand pics and vids for my tiktok to boast for shit I don't even care about all in the meanwhile of endangering others and not giving a shit about anyone or anything else but me and my self validation for attention. I really hate society, especially all these idiots on these social media apps doing mindless shit for attention.
Poor fish. Fighting for it's life until and can no longer fight. Then left exhausted and defenseless near a predator. One of your hardest videos to watch.
Fishing in the inlet. Not cutting the line when the shark gets there holding that Tarpon next to the boat forever!!! Yet you tell these clowns congratulations ?? I think the shark left cuz he didn't want to be caught on camera with these fools!! That tarpon will have been so tired the shark just swam up to him an ate his ass cuz he was too tired to run now!! If that guy running the boat was a guide he should be ashamed of himself!!
I don't know anything about fishing but I thought that was really strange to be fishing in the inlet being as choppy as it is and the fact that it is a high traffic area.
Falling out of the boat in Haulover would be ill advised due to boat traffic, but sharks not so much. The shark didn't even eat the fish. There are very busy beaches 100' away from the inlet and I'm pretty sure an apex predator like a shark knows there are humans in the water nearby. Yet, they ignore all those people day after day and go after fish (their diet) instead.
Out here in Hawaii that Hammerhead is a bit on the juvenile scale. They spawn in the area around Makapu'u on Oahu and the Sealife Park folks display them for all to see in a huge aquarium devoted to Hammerheads. Ours out here turn silver grey when an adult. As far as hunting, they tend to pick a spot in the reef that becomes their territory and they feed there exclusively. As a surfer I have seen them on the surface RARELY and they are pretty much known to only attack if you are hunting their reef. They also make most of their kills BELOW the surface and because of their unusual heads, they like to attack with a sideways oriented jaw...When you see them live, they look like dinosaurs...beautiful creatures for sure...
Tarpon are not an easy catch and they are not good eating fish! Fantastic game sport fish! Their jumps out of the water are spectacular! Warriors, they can wear a man out! Even the Hammerhead wouldn't take the easy meal! Jajajajajaja. That was a very cool video!! Surely something to remember for the guys who bagged him and anyone who watches this video!! Thanks!
A beautiful moment ruined by them trying to capture the moment on camera rather than in their brain. Catch and release as fast as possible to avoid prolonged stress on the fish.
I'd love to see that boat on the rocks. These young men showed zero respect for that tarpon. Maybe some of the comments here will open their eyes and they'll be more responsible in the future.
Easy for us to be critical of these two fisherman struggle with a protected species of fish The Tarpon ! When sharks started to attempt to feed on it that was time to cut line for release. Obviously not seasoned fisherman. A video to show what not to do for sure! DNR and FWC will be looking for them now. lol
Every time I watch these videos I think to myself that being on a boat does not look fun at all. I enjoy watching these videos (oddly), but I do not get the appeal of boating
From the medical journals I have read recently, boaters tend to come from a womb that was filled to capacity with amniotic fluid at birth ... any womb that leaked after the 2nd trimester and prior to birth, decreased one's chances of being in an aquatic setting exponentially
These guys are just plain jerks. There was absolutely no reason on earth to what they put that fish through and they give fishermen a bad rep. Probably pulled the wings off butterflies when they were kids.
I think that these guys' narcissisms were as big as the shark. This is really disgraceful. They spent all their time taking photos of themselves with the fish and by the time they wanted to release it, it was dead. I would hope that viewers would turn this video over to Florida Fish & Game and let them review.
Amateur hour with this captain!! They should have cut the line when the shark was on the fish. Then, the worst job I've seen landing a tarpon, such a shame to treat a magnificent sport fish this way!!
Yes so the shark can now chase and kill it ... I believe the HH Shark did NOT attack becasue the Tarpon did not respond appropriately (which in nature is to flee.) Since it stayed put, it most likely did not trigger the HH attack reflex. This is just a theory although based on much personal experience. Most of my depredation losses (depredation is most likely a word that most of the half-witted ninnies on here have any idea of the definition) have been when the fish runs and flees and not when it is stationary which is what this tarpon did.
@@JCMIAINTL must of been you on that boat ... truth and honest (valid) opinions must make you mad... they demostrated clearly how NOT to land a tarpon.
Horrendous way to treat a tarpon. This is why this fishery needs to be better regulated and managed. He basically killed the fish before the shark eventually did, it was way too tired to run from predators.
These guys seem more interested in pictures instead of Releasing this fish quickly If you're going to go out and bother fish at least do them the courtesy of trying to let them survive
Congratulations nice tarpon.That shark makes a great soup, Nice and salty when you get them in the inlet.Alot better than up the river .Rather have 2or 3 smaller ones.They taste better.
I was sick to watch them raise their hands in success at the end of the video. That was no success and it was a horrible example of protecting the fishing grounds in Florida. Frankly I wish they could be reported for the handling of that amazing fish. Everyone needs to have a hook release tool so that these giants and other amazing fish can be treated with respect.
Amateur hour at the inlet. Geez, release the fish instead of playing with it. It's no wonder the sharks know how to get an easy meal. That being said, what exactly did the shark attack? The troll headlines are getting a bit outta hand. I click less & less because of this since TH-cam changed it up for creators.
Placement wasn't good, but the fight was good until he decided to play with it at the boat instead of landing it. Hammerheads always seem to hit right when you get a tarpon up to the boat.
Hey guys, what size was that Hammerhead Shark? Lots of sharks at the inlet as of late. 😳
I would agree with Mike R Def not any smaller than 8!Also what is a given is the fact that those waters are packed to the Gills with other sharks..
My guess is 36” on the tarpon and 7-8’ on the hammerhead.
Probably 250 pounds. I used to catch them outside Port Everglades using 15lb Bonito as bait with a wire leader. Hammerhead seem to be opportunistic predators, feeding on the ebb tide near inlets. Released them of course but fascinating creature to see up close.

With regard the fish, they were not equipped to quickly land and unhook the fish, a fish of that magnificence needs to be handled properly not dragged around until exhausted and then treated to a bodged unhooking.
I love this channel no stupid music or computer voice just the natural sound as if you were sat there 👍👍👍
One minute we're watching folks with more money than brains stuff their bows into the waves and the next were watching National Geographic. I agree, horrible place to drop a line or chase a catch.
Following the outgoing tide have to do it
you must be + - 8 years old to have formulated such an erudite commentary all on your own
Wait, do you think they have the option of where the fucking fish wants to go once it is hooked? And do you have the option of where fish live?
@@ThatSB precisely!
Does anyone else feel a little bit dumber after reading these replies?
This must be the controversial "kill and release" method of fishing.😁
another DA comment
This fish is alive dummy
@@843Landbased not for long
Spoiler Alert! That fish was dead within the hour. Overplayed and completely exhausted it, no respect for it whatsoever. But I'm sure the googans got some great footage with that chesty though!!
Total over played the fish and then when they got him next to the boat, no rush to get a pic and release. No let’s tire and stress the fish out even more. Rookies
You and the other replies are simply moronic ... would yo like to debate ... I need to learn ;)
I see TH-cam is putting out a survey asking what we DON'T like about comments on TH-cam. I personally like all comments on TH-cam , even the offensive ones. I may not like every opinion , but the right to say what you want is , to me, sacrosanct. Don't mess with TH-cam comments. Thank you Wavy. I enjoy watching.
Great footage. Those guys were fucking clowns though. Not gonna lie, I was rooting for the shark to snatch the fish.
great Netflix plot, selfie dude vs. hammersharknado A+
I was rooting for the fish to snap the line and flee
@@zzopit I’d watch that!
I was rooting for the shark to snatch the guys.
Exactly why are they clowns? BTW, have you ever fished Tarpon?
So much for a quick catch and release! Losers! Should have their fishing license’s permanently revoked. Send tourists to Disney.
and Disney where they want to teach 7 years olds about being one of the Gabillion (actually only 78) genders out there ... Good luck with that Bud!
These dudes would be black listed in the Keys for the way they treated this fish
Two guys who do not know what they are doing, they know the shark is around and are just interested in filming, cut the line and hope the fish can swim away instead of jerking around wasting time
Spot on. These guys are not true sportsmen. They should have quickly got the fish released. He probably won’t survive since they screwed around so long with this magnificent fish.
100% truth
Yes in comment higher up someone said The Tarpon did not survive from all of the time wasted taking pictures, and it washed up on the Rocks within 20 minutes of being played to complete Exhaustion, and then not doing a correct recovery by getting the boat moving and holding The Fish while water is passing through it's Gills. But what great Drone Piloting by Wavy! Now back to watching Meatheads navigating The Inlet !
@@timsmothers8740 Your a freaking liar! Do you have any local knowledge of that inlet Mr. Smarty? If so, let me hear it
I was surprised to see a hammerhead shark there. These guys were amateurs fishing in Haulover cut.
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU WOULD FIND A HAMMER HEAD SHARK THEN !!!!! AT A BAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bozo Comment! Congrats!! Let's debate!!!
Yeah. In the ocean. Shocked
Hey Instead of unhooking it. Let just tire it out even more after it almost died. Just so you can get some pictures.
I was half expecting this guy's line to get cut by another boat passing in the inlet. A super inconsiderate place to be fishing especially with the wrong tackle for a Tarpon that big. I'm not a fan of tiring out fish that you can't even keep legally on the line like that.
You have no clue! The inlet in over 1200' Long starting on the East side of the bridge and 370' Wide at the point they were hooked to the Large Pilchard ... they stayed on the North Side throughout which is considerably shallower and not used by boats to enter or exit the inlet although PWCs use that side.
Love how they just let it sit in the water forever waiting for it to get eaten for the video so stupid
legend has is that till this day he's still taking pictures..
Omg look at me I caught a fish, I gotta take 50 thousand pics and vids for my tiktok to boast for shit I don't even care about all in the meanwhile of endangering others and not giving a shit about anyone or anything else but me and my self validation for attention.
I really hate society, especially all these idiots on these social media apps doing mindless shit for attention.
great drone video work. Too bad one of these clowns didnt fall out of the boat.
Poor fish. Fighting for it's life until and can no longer fight. Then left exhausted and defenseless near a predator. One of your hardest videos to watch.
Fishing in the inlet. Not cutting the line when the shark gets there holding that Tarpon next to the boat forever!!! Yet you tell these clowns congratulations ?? I think the shark left cuz he didn't want to be caught on camera with these fools!! That tarpon will have been so tired the shark just swam up to him an ate his ass cuz he was too tired to run now!! If that guy running the boat was a guide he should be ashamed of himself!!
Tarpon:. You won't believe the freaking day I've had
Terrible anglers…they should know to open the bail and give that Tarpon a chance…hacks…
Awesome video great footage I watch all of your videos keep up the great work love to see people having fun👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Sharks interested,you see it . Cut the GD line, coño !!
When they saw the Hammerhead, they should have cut the line.
I don't know anything about fishing but I thought that was really strange to be fishing in the inlet being as choppy as it is and the fact that it is a high traffic area.
You never stand and fight a fish on an outgoing tide, you sit unless you want to find yourself treading water.
Should have released the fish when the shark appeared .... piss poor sportsmanship
This should be a PSA. Don’t fall out of the boat in Haulover.
Falling out of the boat in Haulover would be ill advised due to boat traffic, but sharks not so much. The shark didn't even eat the fish. There are very busy beaches 100' away from the inlet and I'm pretty sure an apex predator like a shark knows there are humans in the water nearby. Yet, they ignore all those people day after day and go after fish (their diet) instead.
Bull sharks and Hammerheads have definitely been there forever.
Out here in Hawaii that Hammerhead is a bit on the juvenile scale. They spawn in the area around Makapu'u on Oahu and the Sealife Park folks display them for all to see in a huge aquarium devoted to Hammerheads. Ours out here turn silver grey when an adult. As far as hunting, they tend to pick a spot in the reef that becomes their territory and they feed there exclusively. As a surfer I have seen them on the surface RARELY and they are pretty much known to only attack if you are hunting their reef. They also make most of their kills BELOW the surface and because of their unusual heads, they like to attack with a sideways oriented jaw...When you see them live, they look like dinosaurs...beautiful creatures for sure...
It's small for here as well... Regularly see 15 - 20 feet at the inlets on the west coast.
Tarpon are not an easy catch and they are not good eating fish! Fantastic game sport fish! Their jumps out of the water are spectacular! Warriors, they can wear a man out! Even the Hammerhead wouldn't take the easy meal! Jajajajajaja. That was a very cool video!! Surely something to remember for the guys who bagged him and anyone who watches this video!! Thanks!
Spot on Clark!
a great example of dreadful fish handling - all for a load of photos - you need more respect for that lovely Tarpon.
really so how should they have ... ?
@@JCMIAINTL less time worrying about cameras and more time caring for the fish
@@charleselliott6999 Yes lots of pets and hugs, warm blankie with warm brine broth.
I'm surprised it is legal to fish in the Inlet.
Looks like it hooked out of the inlet and they followed it in.
I'm surprised you can haul ass in inlet or go out when rough.Lets make rules for everything.
A beautiful moment ruined by them trying to capture the moment on camera rather than in their brain. Catch and release as fast as possible to avoid prolonged stress on the fish.
If you're going to catch and release, why not fish barbless? Makes it so much easier to actually release them.
That post wins the DA Award for this millennium
These 2 guys probably killed the fish, they do not know what they are doing.
I'd love to see that boat on the rocks. These young men showed zero respect for that tarpon. Maybe some of the comments here will open their eyes and they'll be more responsible in the future.
The Hammerhead left because the tarpon got too close to the boat - NOT because he lost interest. What a stupid thing to say.
Great drone footage for shark week!
Easy for us to be critical of these two fisherman struggle with a protected species of fish The Tarpon ! When sharks started to attempt to feed on it that was time to cut line for release. Obviously not seasoned fisherman. A video to show what not to do for sure! DNR and FWC will be looking for them now. lol
Tarpon was maybe 80 to 100 pounds. Stupidest release I have ever watched. Get a quick picture and turn it loose. Don't beat it up.
Bad example as Fisherman should have broke it off as soon as the shark showed up!!!!!!
Every time I watch these videos I think to myself that being on a boat does not look fun at all. I enjoy watching these videos (oddly), but I do not get the appeal of boating
From the medical journals I have read recently, boaters tend to come from a womb that was filled to capacity with amniotic fluid at birth ... any womb that leaked after the 2nd trimester and prior to birth, decreased one's chances of being in an aquatic setting exponentially
Boating? Just riding around isn’t that fun but gotta have one to go fishing!!!
If they wanted the fish, a gaff or net would have ended this fight a whole lot sooner. Poor sportsmanship. Not to mention risky boating.
Amazing video tarpon looks to be in the 100 pounds class and the hammerhead is on maybe 8+ feet long
Was gonna give that guy props but watching him torture that fish for a few more 100 pics smh was disgusting
This is 8 minutes I’ll never get back.
The dude is scared of his fish, but wants a pic.
That was absolutely embarrassing... both on the captain and fisherman's part rite from the get go..
He had it Alongside of the boat for too long hes an amateur He was more worried about getting his pictures and he was letting a fish live
Couple of geniuses
Jesus. Watching this is giving me anxiety. Pull it in already ffs
They fish in the inlet for the audience guys like him always think everybody is admiring everything he does he's a gift from god and can not do wrong
Fishing within the inlet is not a smart thing to do at all.
These guys are just plain jerks. There was absolutely no reason on earth to what they put that fish through and they give fishermen a bad rep. Probably pulled the wings off butterflies when they were kids.
I think that these guys' narcissisms were as big as the shark. This is really disgraceful. They spent all their time taking photos of themselves with the fish and by the time they wanted to release it, it was dead. I would hope that viewers would turn this video over to Florida Fish & Game and let them review.
The fish swam away Karen
Jeez Karen, maybe it swallowed the hook and took a little time to release safely. It swam away afterall
@@NoName-gf6xo Fish have feelings too.
@@NoName-gf6xo That is Mr. Karen to you and the fish was a total loss. Apologize later.
Amateur hour with this captain!! They should have cut the line when the shark was on the fish. Then, the worst job I've seen landing a tarpon, such a shame to treat a magnificent sport fish this way!!
Pretty sure the dude was afraid of it!!
Yes so the shark can now chase and kill it ... I believe the HH Shark did NOT attack becasue the Tarpon did not respond appropriately (which in nature is to flee.) Since it stayed put, it most likely did not trigger the HH attack reflex. This is just a theory although based on much personal experience. Most of my depredation losses (depredation is most likely a word that most of the half-witted ninnies on here have any idea of the definition) have been when the fish runs and flees and not when it is stationary which is what this tarpon did.
@@JCMIAINTL must of been you on that boat ... truth and honest (valid) opinions must make you mad... they demostrated clearly how NOT to land a tarpon.
Horrendous way to treat a tarpon. This is why this fishery needs to be better regulated and managed. He basically killed the fish before the shark eventually did, it was way too tired to run from predators.
Guess you never caught a tarpon
These guys seem more interested in pictures instead of Releasing this fish quickly If you're going to go out and bother fish at least do them the courtesy of trying to let them survive
That was some nice photography wavy dude, thanks!
Some people are stupid
Some people are cruel
These fools are all of the above
The ocean will eat you if you show zero respect 🙏
Emotional reply based on absolute stupidity although this should be a published poem
Put down the damn camera and release the fish. They are not true fisherman because of their irresponsible behavior. Too many to list.
Pretty sure that poor tarpon swam away and died after how long it took them to release it.
Congratulations nice tarpon.That shark makes a great soup, Nice and salty when you get them in the inlet.Alot better than up the river .Rather have 2or 3 smaller ones.They taste better.
the photo shoot was more dangerous than the shark . just release it already
The Tarpon most likely died so sad.
Look like they were more interested in social media content than fishing. It's catch and release. Not catch and snap chat
if this is sport fishing count me out, fishing to eat yes but just screwing about with fish to get your kicks , bit sad isn't it.
Not gonna lie...the last 4 minutes of the video, I was hoping that hammerhead would come back and take hand or an arm off one of those guys.
your a sick pup and has been reported
Captain can't put the phone down.
I was sick to watch them raise their hands in success at the end of the video. That was no success and it was a horrible example of protecting the fishing grounds in Florida. Frankly I wish they could be reported for the handling of that amazing fish. Everyone needs to have a hook release tool so that these giants and other amazing fish can be treated with respect.
Would you like to debate your point(s) Who wins gets $1
hes not a fisherman. hes a clown
This video needs to go Viral. Share Share Share
This is one of the longest videos of fumble-fuck-ary that I have ever seen.
These two fisherman look very unprepared!!!!
can you explain why?
Amateur hour at the inlet. Geez, release the fish instead of playing with it. It's no wonder the sharks know how to get an easy meal.
That being said, what exactly did the shark attack? The troll headlines are getting a bit outta hand. I click less & less because of this since TH-cam changed it up for creators.
Excellent drone video footage, wellllll done.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! 👍
Too stupid to go barbless. A travesty what they did to that tarpon. I've seen bulls, makos and tigers there...they wouldn't have lost interest.
This was cool - definitely different from the normal bouncing bikinis! lol
If I could hear over the people babbling in Spanish or whatever
One hell of a video, great shots
Placement wasn't good, but the fight was good until he decided to play with it at the boat instead of landing it. Hammerheads always seem to hit right when you get a tarpon up to the boat.
Damn this is a once in a lifetime encounter of a truly dumb statement. Really, play with it at the boat and HH ... All wrong Bud!!!
Quit Hateing! This Video Is Very Clean And Professional, I Wish I Was There On The Boat, To Witness This Wonderful Action!!👏💪
Spot on Donald!
That Hammerhead must have been blind...worst hammerhead shark attack i've seen. Tried to take off the tail 10 times, 10 misses
