  • Florida's most chaotic fishery just might be the legendary Boca Grande Pass. This singular pass is home to thousands of migrating tarpon, hundreds of hungry sharks, and more boats than you can imagine. This is a fishery I have always wanted to experience and would love to see again in the future. Get ready, this is some legitimate Florida Tarpon fishing!

      Glad to see you in my neck of the woods! Was hoping to see you hook up on on of those 200 pound class ones out there or one of those big hammers or bulls. Always a pleasure to see you and Alec SLAYING the Silver Kings. One day Alec will bow! Dope seeing one of my fishing mentors cutting it up next to Gasparilla and Cayo Costa. So many damn boats it looked like the effin... Catalina Wine Mixer! tight Lines buddy!

    The only gripe I have with this reel is the weight, but that goes with the size of the reel ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxM68VkfsQhHaabDce1IwOCXuvumcpbZ_k . I brought this salmon fishing up in Oswego, NY. I coupled it with a Cabela's Whuppin Stick. I had no problem pulling in a 14lb salmon. I will probably use this for surf fishing this summer and downgrade to a 3500 series Battle II next salmon season to save my wrists. All of the operations are butter smooth and the bail is nice and thick and has a solid flip to it. Everything about this reel is sturdy and strong. The drag system held up to the salmon and was also super smooth. I did use a scale to set the drag properly before going out to the river and this worked out tremendously. A bunch of other guys on the river would hook up and snap almost immediately. Just because you have a good drag system doesn't do anything if you don't set it correctly.

    It’s quite a spectacle. I hope the fish don’t get tired of the pressure and being shark bait and stop using the pass. Then that whole section of coast will have less fish hanging around. It happened in Homassassa. I prefer to run down the beach and look for smaller numbers. It’s too much pressure in there. You got googans running right up on the rollers, the guides think they own it, and 100’s of boats. They should probably limit the season or close down fishing in the pass for a while to make sure it stays the way it is. Awesome video though
