I know exactly where you are lol. I won't spoil the secret. My buddy and I used to fish the exact same area when we had Gheenoes. There's some ABSOLUTE monsters when you reach the connecting points between the bigger bays in the back and creek mouths flowing into the bays on the incoming.
im in south fort myers on Estero Bay and while we had 8ft of water downstairs, many were much less fortunate and lost everything. thanks for the sick content brotha
Sick video! When I'm using soft plastic flukes for tarpon I rig them with a CPS ring and circle hook through the nose, hookup and landing percentage goes way up! You can get away with lighter leader and smaller hooks than you would expect too.
How do you tell that it’s tarpon you’re seeing in the water? Is it that they come up really quickly? How would I not mistake it with mullet or something else that comes to the surface?
The water was super clear that day and I could see them just swimming. Their shape is very different than a mullet. It really does help to have a good pair of polarized sunglasses.
Great Video as always. I am glad you are making videos again for the Gheenoe LT-25 Community and inshore Micro-Skiff anglers. Hopefully this month I will get my LT-25 from Custom Gheenoe and I will join you as another LT-25 inshore angler. Thank you.
Good to see the backwaters survived Ian somewhat. I’m heading down Nov. 1 for the winter and will be fishing Estero Bay Area. Can’t wait to get back on the mangrove backwaters. Glad to see it’s not littered with debris. Great video.
@@10kerick holy moly the camera makes it look bigger I thought y’all would have been using bigger stuff cause the tarpon go nuts,we pretty much use the same,I use Nasci 3000 size for reds and trout here in south Louisiana,we have caught some bulls on those little reels and they do great,best reel for 100 bucks shimano knocked that one out the park,glad y’all made it through storm ok,make more videos!!
