Let me get this straight - you are going to fish for tarpon from a jet ski? If you snag a 50-pounder, I sincerely hope you get him to the jet ski before he drags you halfway to Cuba. Geez, talk about extreme fishing.

What's next, water skiing behind a cruise ship? :floor:

I think when you and I ever get to meet, we need to try this tarpon fishing/jet skiing combo. We can review this funn new sport for the outdoors forum!!! The visual I am having right now is hilarious!

I snagged a 45 lb tarpon in a 12 foot john boat in a canal in Ft. Lauderdale one night and 45 minutes later and 2 miles downstream I pulled him into the boat about midnight. :clap_1:

yeah, it can be fun - nice tarpon are worth the trouble and the only way to get into that skinny of water is to use the jetski (easy) or a mitzi skiff and pushrod (too much like work)

if you want to see a local go weak in the knees, have ms kitty drive down to port st joe and yell TARPON! then watch their eyes glaze over as they imaginarily fight the monster goldfish and hang it off the back of the boat for the ride home!

Tarpon reported at second sandbar two days ago, along with a few 7-8 ft sharks.

a tarpon among sharks is a little surprising...they make a pretty good meal for a couple of sharks...

I am still a bit new to saltwater fishing and if I do hook into a Tarpon where do I get the $50 tag. Also what is the best way to fish for them?

Plenty people fish for big fish while in kayaks, Tarpon included. I have a sit-inside made for flatwater/swamp etc. but I take it out in the Gulf. I rarely fish saltwater but would like to get better outfitted for it and do it more often in this area. I'd love to play with a Tarpon.
