Thanks bro! Sad part is, I knew that. Was so excited that i was actually hooking them, any knowledge I had about fighting them totally went out the window lol🤦♂️
I’m so glad there’s a fisherman in Jacksonville like me me and my grandad always pass by it going to Nassau sounds it used to be amazing there but he would always say we would turn to mutants if we caught fish and ate them near there
Strong little suckers huh? Only tarpon I've seen was washed up on shore at Sister's creek. Might be worth going back during mullet run. Landing one is a must! 👍
I've never caught a tarpon neither. You got excited when you realize It was a tarpon and let me tell you I would lose my mind if I got close to pulling in one of those beast. Another great video man 🔥
Try to what’s called bow to him whenever he jumps, i.e., drop your rod tip towards him and he’s less likely to spit the hook. I use to fish for them in the ocean, same place we fished for kings. Off of Jax beach and Ponte Vedra. I enjoy your channel. Giddyup brother!😊
Thanks brother! And I knew that too! But in the moment with the excitement, all that knowledge went out window😂😂 I’ll be better prepared next time, especially mentally lol!
Nice! I always drive by this and wonder what’s in these waters. At first I thought this was a big lady fish but upon closer inspection, it is a Tarpon! That’s crazy! Do you ever use an anchor with your kayak? Or do you just pedal and use your rudder to stay in place?
So crazy! I couldn’t believe it myself at first. I think they’re only there certain time of year. But to answer your question, I don’t use an anchor anymore. I like to stay in place like you said or keep moving. If I find a good spot with lots of fish, I’ll either park along the shore line or I’ll use an anchor pin that’ll keep me in place in 3ft or less of water. Keep it simple and less stuff to bring🙌
God Bless my brother is there any where to wade fish in Jacksonville Florida and where can I catch reds my brother from shore I don’t have a kayak thank you
No place will guarantee you catch a red, it’s pretty tough. I would just take a drive down heckscher drive going towards the ocean and fish any of those spots along the road. Get yourself some live mud minnows or finger mullet and toss it out near some oysters and just wait! Good luck bro!
Nice Tarpon hookups. They are a hard fish to land.
You ain’t lying!😂 And these were just juveniles! The hook ups were so fun though🙌
Awesome footage as always buddy! Them Tarpon were just fooling around with you 😆 thanks for sharing and God bless
Thanks for the support brother! Those darn tarpon!🥴lol!
@@VISUAL-LY 😆 you know where they’re at at least so you can gear up and fight em another day
@@BlessingsLoft lol true!! Maybe arm myself with some live shrimp next time👀
Definitely a bucket list fish to catch for me! I need to try that area🤔
Me too bro!! Particularly from a kayak! Im gonna have to try again soon🙌
Gotta bow to the silver king! Point that rod down when they jump and it’ll help to keep them hooked. Awesome video man 🤙🏽

😂Catch and release only back there! Cool place to fish though🙌
@@VISUAL-LY that’s good to know hopefully I can talk my mom into getting a a kayak like u have
@@christianAlston806 good luck man!
@@VISUAL-LY thx

So powerful! These were around 3ft+ I’m guessing. But yes! Definitely a must to catch one now!
One of your better vids. Really enjoyed this one. It had a little bit of everything. Great job!
Thank you!!🙏🤙
Great Video Bro!
Thank you!🙏🤙👊
I always wanted to see how the sheephead fishing was back there
I think there’s some back there, just gotta catch at right tide
Hahaha. Would have love to see your grabbing that green tarpoon with that net.
😂😂can you imagine?! Would’ve been mayhem!! Lol
@@VISUAL-LY and some swimming time... 🤣
@@1d12monkey didn’t think that far😅😂
What cam you use for those shots
I use 2 GoPros and iPhone for some shots🙌
I've never caught a tarpon neither. You got excited when you realize It was a tarpon and let me tell you I would lose my mind if I got close to pulling in one of those beast. Another great video man 🔥
Appreciate the support man! Last species I expected to find back there that day!🔥🔥

@@VISUAL-LY oh ok how do you anchor yourself with the anchor pin? Anchor trolley system?
@@TheRealRoman11 Yeap, exactly. I have trolley system on both sides of the kayak
3:46 😂tough break
😂😂maybe a blessing. Would’ve been chaos with that big fish in that broken net😅
bro ik exactly where that’s at it must be sheepshead mania.all those oysters an barnacles when the tide is high 🤔
Lol I tried for Sheeps all over that place - didn’t include in the video. Caught a few crabs when I launched. Not a single taker all day🤷♂️
@@VISUAL-LY ahhh man great video tho man !
Mav is watching with me asking when I’m eating a blue chip 😂
😂😂tell him the finale blue chip challenge is coming soon!
Is this in mayport
Nah; off heckscher

Gotta bow to the king (tip your rod down when they jump)
Crazy thing is I knew that but never hooked onto a tarpon before. So in the moment, didn’t remember anything🤦♂️😅
Careful back there,there’s a 10ft gator that hugs that sea wall
I’ll keep an eye out
Multiple of em
