It was a fine day for fishing, went it 2 hours before the sunset. Its the high tide and the fish is biting. A tips about tarpon fishing is to cast near sunken timber or any underwater structure with tarpon rising nearby it.

| Well, its the wild card of the day - an estuary tilapia on charlie |
A thing with tilapia, normally it doesn't go for fly. But I guess the fly landed on their nesting area and normally they will attack anything that comes into that territory.

| One of the fierce jumper, caught me off guard. |
It wasn't that big compare to the next one but when I strike it, it jumps all around the canal and it was spectacular.

| The final tarpon, one of the biggest, sadly suffered with hooks at the gills |
The last tarpon is quite big compare others. caught it nearby an old small bridge that was disintegrating. However, I didn't release the last tarpon because it is badly hurt. But in respect to the one of the best fighter I did bring it back home and cooked it for dinner although it doesn't taste that nice.
