Another tarpon trip

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.
Something at the end of the line that doesn't shows any acrobatic action

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.
