Excellent coaches and mentors don’t shy away from the controversial topics. Glad you took the time to address these two conundrums; people and sharks. I salute you my friend and hope that people learn and practice this wisdom.
If you get angry hearing this, then you might be doing things wrong. I learned a very long time ago to give other anglers space, whether walking the shore or in a boat. Just don’t do to others what you don’t want them doing to you. The old golden rule applies- treat others the way you want to be treated.
45 years of tarpon fishing on the west coat of florida and I agree with everythiing you said.
I got a good one for you. I Tarpon fish off a kayak. I'm anchored up 100 yards off a Sarasota beach. A gaggle of scuba divers taking their open water test surround me and my buddy. The divemaster finally shows up and I request he take his divers a little farther down the beach. He tells me he hoped we would move. I explained to him I got up at 4:30 and have been sitting in this line for hours. Jetski's also have no respect!!
yes, welcome to Sarasota
Was beach fishing south lido the other day at sunset and a sunset pontoon cruise backed right over my casting line…took a lot of self control not to pelt the side of his boat with my swim bait
Thanks for sharing CA. Being someone on the receiving end of a bit of a scolding, I felt like a kid learning a lesson from Pop. It was very well received and I did learn due to the discussion. I took my licks like a champ and thanked the professional for the lesson, and as a rookie I became more versed on a beautiful fishing experience. Trying to catch the elusive Silver King!
I am a North GA guy that likes to fish in salt. Actually headed down in Aug to Apalachicola to fish in a friendly tournament with Atlanta Saltwater Sportsman's Club. Would love to try my hand at a Tarpon. I needed to see all of this! Thank you for doing this video!
Nothing controversial with what you said C.A. Spot on.
I have yet to go out on my own for tarpon, but have been out with a guide in your area (a friend of yours). I was upfront with him and told him I am there to learn, with the goal of going out on my own boat. While I am absolutely sure he didnt take me to his favorite spots, he did take the time to teach me some of the etiquette and I asked a bunch of questions about what NOT to do. I had an awesome trip and I feel like I am better prepared to hunt tarpon and not stand out as "one of those guys" when I am out there. Great video. Thanks!!!
One thing to do is start the engine if you see a shark while trying to break them off. Great video!
Hey cap, your trailer brake lights flash a couple of times in the video. Might need to check that. At 1:54 and 6:31 minute mark.
Ha - kept drawing my eye too!!! Good catch
Thanks C. a. for the directions on how to Tarpon fish. It is very important that everyone tries to follow what is taking place at a certain location.
The worst offenders I have witnessed are guides. I know its only 10 percent of them that think they own the water. Its that 10 percent that will never watch this video.
Agreed guides and tournament guys
Absolute truth
Just about every guide I know or seen they think they own the water .
Thank you C.A . Like you said , some people my get mad about what your saying . It needed to said . Well done sir , we'll done !
Have been watching you for a while trying to learn how to catch a tarpon Sunday night I finally got my tarpon little over 5' In little gas barrel pass thanks for all the advice love your show
This is the best video you have made. Thank you.
The most serious Video you every done since I am following Good and bad !
More people need to watch this video fishing educate and respect for other anglers should be taught I kayak fish in south Alabama and I have to watch out for boats All the time I can be fishing a spot by myself for over an hour and still have boats come in and almost run me over just because I'm fishing were they wanna fish I carry my 1911 with me to keep their drama down
Good advice for all fishermen.
Fishing curtesy is part of being a responsible fisherman, providing respect for both the fishery you are enjoying and the other fisherman that share the fishery. Thank you for your message and manner in which you share , what I hope will be, influential advice. We all get to enjoy better days, when we all behave better with understanding and respect for each other, and the fish we are seeking. Thank you, again. Good fishing!
😇Well said and I wish most people would do this. The jet ski's in Miami are terrible
Loved the video C.A. I’m glad your telling people about this. Looking forward to seeing you out there this tarpon season
needed this two weeks ago
This was good, really good advice and a pragmatic view of how things are and in the end need to be.
Thank you for sharing words of wisdom to those of us that aren’t from this world. Two ears and one mouth and a little common sense goes a long way!!👊🏼
Thank you , getting back into the game. Good refresher.
Thanks for doing this video. I am new with a new 25 foot center console and learning the ropes.
You used to be called Tarpon JESUS and you are absolutely right on everything you have explained on this video.
Thanks
Appreciate you old friend
@@flatsclasscharters Old in friendship longevity and AGE🤣
I applaud this video!
Great stuff CA great hearing this from you
People have to understand etiquette and be respectful to other anglers, shouldn't catch any heat for that! Great video Capt 🎣
Thanks for this. I’m not new to fishing, but I am new to tarpon fishing. I really appreciated the his video. Perfectly executed!
I could no agree with you more…!!! The worst I’ve encounter has always been the commercial fisherman who they think they owned the whole ocean and always trying to cut you off. You should make more videos like this. Thank you very very informative from a big fan…
Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge. I appreciate it greatly
Thanks for your video today, I always appreciate your advice. I don't fish for Tarpon as I am a redfish and speckled trout guy but this is good information that I can share with others when asked about Tarpon fishing!
Thanks Captain for this video! I agree with everything you said and anyone that doesn't had no business tarpon fishing. This video should be a requirement for anyone starting to fish tarpon!
Thanks for the badly needed video and advice! It was a very well thought out video! It’s gotten to a point where Tarpon fishermen should be tested in the same way that Shark fishermen are tested before getting their license permits. The ones that drive me crazy are the guide jerks that think that because they have a ‘no catch no pay guarantee’ that they are entitled to first consideration regardless of the circumstances and are willing to ruin everybody’s day to make sure they get their paying customers their opportunity! Incredible!
I wish you had spent more time with the subject of courtesy when tarpon fishing on the beach. People are constantly climbing all over each other to get their line in the vicinity of a tarpon and don’t care whose line they crossed to do it! There are many parallels with boaters courtesy but the possibility of confrontation, in my opinion, is much greater on the beach simply because of the proximity that many fishermen are to one another. It’s too easy for people to ignore the others because of the intensity of emotions when the moment comes when rolling fish have been spotted! People seem to be totally ignorant regarding the concept of shared space and how to cast to a Tarpon. It’s gotten to a point that the only times worth fishing are first and last light of the day when many fishermen aren’t interested in fishing. Thanks again!
Great video, thanks capt!!
I love your vids🙏🏼
Awesome.. !!! its only offensive to those that don't practice "safe" Tarpon fishing
All great topics, I am happy you touched on the shark issues.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Have you videos discussing catching or encountering dangerous fish? How do you handle #Shark #Baracuda #Stingray You know the list where there is a risk of getting maimed or killed if you do something wrong. Mako, hammerhead, Blacktip, Lemon. When do you want to hook a tasty shark, ie mako, but do you really want to hook a hammerhead? How does the beginner and intermediate skipper differ in how they handle the situations? Tne flat boat or V hull or Gheenoe . Is there a technique to pop off? Do you sacrifice artificials? Removing hook.
It’s always good to talk about it. It’s always gonna happen. We’ve all done it. Don’t run your motors over their migration routes, poll your way in. Minimize running your trolling motors. Pole your way into your spot. Give me a couple hundred yards and I’ll do the same and we’ll catch more fish.
Great video. There is no tarpon etiquette left in Pinellas Co. Worst year for a holes i have ever seen. I know why CA moved away.
Awesome educational video! Thank you CA!
Thank you sir. Very well said
Hey C.A I’m up in Eastern NC, on the Pamlico River we get these big guys late July/August I have noticed them last couple years while red drum fishing in brackish water, those fins and the speed they move are amazing .
Hopefully this year I’ll catch one .
Well said!
I agree with you one hundred and fifty-five percent CA
Excellent. Well said.
Hands-down, great information😊
👍 all good points. Thanks CA.
Well said on all points 👍
What the heck is going on with your trailer lights? Is it only me who notice they were flashing? 😂
Fish charleston SC for a long time and it seem that people just don’t care anymore they drop 100k on a boat can’t operate it and own the waterways just no respect same jack@&$ that think they are more important at the landing and cut people off ,one reason why I go out on weekdays and not so much on weekends
UA-camrs and social media have destroyed any chance of peace, respect and tranquility on the water, pretty much everywhere. From Flip to the thousands of "look at me" UA-camrs trying to get their faces recognized (kind of including my retired self) it has altered and destroyed what was once a leisurely form of recreation. No one to blame for all of it but ourselves. My reputation was built as a guide in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's, not with edited videos that make everything look phenomenal every second of everyday, but with good old fashioned elbow grease as a guide trying to emulate the guides that I thought were the super pros 40 years ago. It's all just a flat out shit show anymore. But we fish on.
Really enjoyed. I agree, approach every situation with a little respect for your fellow anglers. Shake your head at the dummies and be cordial. Side note, that’s a sexy boat
And circle hooks.
There is an ahole with Tampa on his boat that doesn't follow any rule. He ran out of the pass right over all my lines, literally 50yds from the beach. I wanted to throw 8oz weights off his boat.
Very good info. Too bad the worst offenders will never understand.
Too many Wally’s out there now. Hardly anyone gets it anymore. The worst are people who sit on spot lock vs actually taking the time to make the right drift.
My favorite is when people are spot locked where everyone is dipping crabs in a pass. 🤦🏻♂️ that really blows my mind.
Let’s not forget the jetskits and credit card captains that just run the fish over.
Don’t get me started. Tarpon fishing almost isn’t fun anymore with everything out there not playing by the rules.
Bet you were fishing out of the Anclote River if anyplace can raise your Blood Pressure that area can and that's why I avoid it now. It should be a requirement to have to watch a video like this, not just for Tarpon but general Fishing to get your Fishing License. I try to learn from anglers such as yourself.
That guy 😂
Idle means 1000 rpm’s or less.
Nothings changed huh? I can't remember how many times we responded to guides firing at each other in Boca over jigs and hooks! Enough for me to hold guides at very low esteem (not counting you, you use baitcasters) and wonder why anyone fishes for an inedible monster that destroys the inside of your boat.
Looks like a short in your trailer lights, they have been flashing all thru the video
If you don't get mad about fishing, you're a tourist lol
I was in Ft Pierce and encounter one of these fishing elitist. He was mad cause he said we were too close. I was at least a 109 yards away. He wouldn’t let it go. His wife was pleading with him and he wouldn’t. So we went to shore. I felt so bad but I had to put him to sleep. I apologized to his wife for her having to see that but he was begging for it.
Is this one of them talks where everyone thinks that they're entitled to be in your space? Where have you been sitting all morning or all afternoon? And they say We have every right to be there in your casting range and you and tell them that there's a whole f---ing ocean out here . And they start arguing the point. With? You. Been? There. Done? That. When I was a kayak fisherman, and they almost capsized my wife in her kayak And they didn't think a Hobie kayak would move that fast when I got between him and my wife He started running his gums, and then he flipped me off. Then he got what he'd never expected
The thing that pisses me off the most is the person that hauls ass across a flat that is clearly marked “no wake “ or “ slow speed “ I fish the flats around Bishop Harbor, Cockroache Bay Area a lot and see it all the time.
You didn’t mention the guy that runs aground all over the flats and chews up the sea grasses.
Great video Capt. CA there is a lot more along these lines that you can educate more on.
What does this have to do with tarpon fishing Mike lmao
@@Joey_Randazzo etiquette, but it doesn’t look like you will get the comparison. Lmao.
@@mikeryan6277 again, chewing up sea grass has nothing to do with tarpon fishing etiquette. Different problem with different a-holes.
@@Joey_Randazzo I don’t differentiate between Tarpon fishing over say Snook, Redfish or Trout regarding etiquette since you can find them all in the same places, but it’s clear you will find fault with anything I type so good luck and stay safe.
Great advice as always, if anyone is offended by your comments then they are likely the offenders you're talking too.
Two comments, one, how is what you said not 90% common sense? That's a rhetorical question. I believe most people know when they are being rude or wrong, but they just don't care. Those are the ones that I want to give a one finger salute, but I know I need to refrain from doing so.
Two, the commentary from guides that " this is my office, and I don't come into your office and sit at your desk" is total BS. For one, my office is a private space. The water is public. Moreover, yes, I work elsewhere, and I do so to make enough money to have the time and money to come out here and fish. Just because I don't make that money on the water means nothing. Unless I am breaking etiquette or messing things up for anyone else, be they a guide or a recreational angler, I have just as much right to fish that spot as anyone else. What's funny is that I DO go out of my way to let guides do their job. I respect that they are working. But I have no obligation to them as they seem to think.
Boring, obvious and stupid.
hey sir, I have a few questions about getting tarpon from my kayak. I have tried to message you on Instagram and Facebook woth no reply
Ocean or bay?
He’s a salesman. He won’t answer you. Who do you think he is , your personal guide ??
Great stuff!!
