May 25, 2010 - Tarpon Fishing at Cudjoe Key

We met up with Capt Bob from Double Haul Charters and headed out in his Maverick HPX skiff. Debbi had never caught a tarpon before, so she was first on the rod.

It didn't take long to get bit and Debbi reeled in her first Jack Crevalle. Soon after that, Debbi was in for a 1 hour battle with a tarpon in the 80-90 lb class.

Later, I hooked into a tarpon as well, but after a hectic battle around the bridge pilings, the hook eventually pulled.

Here is a short video
