Little unchanged for
eons, tarpon need to surface and “gulp air,”
to compliment the oxygen pushed across their
gills while swimming.
Tarpon can be seen,
happily gulping air and rolling in the early
mornings and late evenings as they prepare for
breakfast and supper, respectfully.
And those are the
times that savvy guides take you to the
fishing hot spots that test both your tackle
and muster.
Tarpon are a
semi-renewable source of excitement for fly
fisherpersons and should be afforded the
utmost respect from anglers.
A Giant Tarpon will
battle you until it is on death's door and
needs to be respected by an angler by putting
the screws to the metal and not backing down.
Whoever blinks first, loses!
