Tarpon Trip out of Galveston

LIVIN · 05-13-2009, 12:04 PM

I thought you guys might enjoy some pics of the tarpon we caught last summer about 1 mile off of Galveston.
They start coming in around late May early June and stay too late August.
if you have never caught one put it on your list because there is nothing like it.....

Nice fish, looks like a fun time.
Do tarpon taste good?

Tarpon are catch and release only....
Besides, who the heck wants to clean a fish that size?

I fish in my parents local Tarpon tournament. Never caught one before. Just a bunch of skates, they call em pancake tarpon in the tourney. Going up there in the end of July for it this year. Can't wait. Any secrets to catching them? We usually chum up the water and wait.
