the greatest fish caught on dry land - how to catch texas tarpon 

Wow! I can't believe the number of Tarpon that were that close to the jetty. I've hooked a few over the years but never landed one. After seeing how you rigged up with the tied on circle hooks I can't wait to try it. I really appreciate the way you educate viewers on taking care of our resources. Keep up the good work!

I remember your 1st tarpon still one of my favorite videos "what am I even gonna do with my life now" lol

So happy to see you reel in your second tarpon, Coop. That O.G. silver king is still one of my favorite vids of yours.

Great job man that was so awesome anytime you can catch any size tarpon on light tackle makes it the best day ever!!!! Keep the 🔥🔥🔥 coming

Nice too see water looking blue. I liked the tied on circle hooks. If you can find them, AH style hooks also work very well. Online Hawaii or Japanese tackle shops always have them. Combined with about 4 inches (after tying) of 27 pound wire leader tied directly to mono with an Albright knot, then use the combo haywire twist , barrel wrapped style to attach the wire to hook. 3-4 inches of wire is usually enough length to prevent most toothy fish from cutting line. 27 pound wire is thin, strong and it doesnt effect the bite much in clear water. Works with lures or live bait. The tiny Number 16 sized AH hooks are awesome for catching small or medium bait..

love the morning tide water release. epic fish man. all the love from Australia

great catch Coop! impressive as always!

Badass catch, Thresher! Great info about how to handle the Tarpon when landing them. 💪

Congratulations on your tarpon, super impressed!

Right on Coop! Nice Tarpon on the DOA! Thanks for the Awesome Work my Brother!

My Bucket list fish! Congratulations, awesome catch!

The only fishing yt I rewatch.. high quality

man that is awesome i didn’t even know tarpon were in Texas until I saw a video a couple months ago. I think some people even get them in Galveston every now and then.

As always, great video. Congrats on the👑! Thank you for sharing that circle hook tie job. Does the bait swim decent?

That water looks so nice!! You might see me out there late September or early October

Texas tarpon is impressive. I hooked one using a live mud minnow while I was in the Florida keys

Congrats on that sick little tarpon on north pack that was awsome !

Hey Coop I’d recommend to use the smaller 2.75 DOA Shrimp you will have better luck to catch them! That what I use for targeting Tarpon

That was a cool catch...i got 3 tarpon that size with a gold spoon on Sanibe Islandl in June...DOAs are great as well...I've never fished for tarpon with one though.

Great catch🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟 That Tarpon wanted to throw that hook...Nice save and release!! Kudos

Awesome tarpon action man. Keep them coming brother 🤘👌👏👍

You're the man. Awesome job as usual!

Congrats on 270k Coop

Your catching drum. You’re the best fishermen I know. Wow a 16ich drum. Your the man,

I’ve been fishing in Galveston the last couple days and the surf has been hella nice them trout be hungry👌🏾

Cool overview shots!

I used to hook up with them on the started issue blue and silver rattle trap in the arroyo

You always got to bow down to the king 👑

Enjoy all your videos ✅🎣

Just picked up these 0.01 lures I bet the trout will love it

Awesome coop!

Lots of big tarpon at the old brown sugar terminal in aquadilla puerto Rico. 100 lbs at up, near crash boat, old Ramey AFB

Nice video, Coop. I want to go to the Baffin bay flats...

That guy wasnt impressed, He might have been in shock. hehehe. Great stuff my man. Thumbs up!

nice lil tarpon bro👍🏾

That was the strangest tarpon fight I've ever seen!

Lands a tarpon using a baitcaster, Legendary! I'm always afraid to cast at big fish with my baitcasting reels as I'm afraid I wont have enough line for the run.

You called that trout my nickname..."Madlad" Love the video bro...

I was out there with you on the jettie in port a on saturday afternoon when you were catching the bull redfish, sorry i didnt recognize you then. Had some questions inwanted to ask you.

Nice Tarpon!! Have never hooked one. Looking forward to catching my first!! What happened to the catch and cook on that nice drum? Lol. GREAT VIDEO!!

Oh yes I’m paying attention to this one. 🔥❤️

Those DOA shrimp are the ultimate lure giant trout reds flounder you name it ive landed one with that lure

Are we just going to pretend there wasn't a random person lying on their back with VR goggles?

New upload let’s go

Alright Hamilton, Great Job Coop

Nice fish man!

Nice work!

Tarpon always love a good white fluke, unless you can get some live mullet or menhaden. Great catch though

great video

That's crazy bro. IV lived and fished in Rockport avidly my entire life and have never caught a tarpon. IV heard people say we had tarpon in our bays but didn't know how true that was. Well now I know lol

Yo with the Elden Ring music! Should have went with David to the jetties that day.

Elden ring theme song lol no copyright?! That’s dope!

Have you ever heard of NLBN??? You should look into the lil mullet!

my top dream texas fish

Tell me why I thought this was going to be a troll video about lady fish lol 🤣

They must be all there cause there are very few on SPI. Nice work.

Epic music 🎶 love it! Also love the guy’s reaction about you throwing the DOA shrimp 😅 Great catch Coop!

Bad ass Coop!

Sweet tarpon! I go down to the Everglades every winter to catch the juveniles on my fly rod. Love those fish but I do not understand them. And yes, a very high percentage of them throw the hook.

It on my budget list great job brother God is good 👍 8

Nice job coop ! Lets gedo !

Love the Elden ring music😊

Bow to the King 👑

Next level music edits

I was waiting for that music to drop 😂

What cleats do you use for the slick rocks??? I haven’t found a pair yet that will hold together in the rocks?? Thanks for any help you can provide.

6:41 audio glitch 🤣

I wish I have your skills😇😇☻☻killin it as always bro😎

oh wuhhhh?! i did not know or even have any idea I was suppose to rig my DOA shrimps like that. Have never caught anything on them despite seeing videos and them having a pretty good reputation. I always had tied it just like a regular jighead and thought I was working it wrong or the bite just wasn’t into that color I had. What kind of rig is that? Like, hybrid Carolina rig or something? except with a DOA shrimp?

Nice!

Bro the elden ring music in the beginning lol 😆

Fishing in the streets and Elden Ring in the sheets 💯

Also big tiger sharks

Hay thresher did you win the red tournament or are you still in it

I hooked a tarpon once, about a 5 footer on a 2 oz spoon. Yep thru it grrr

Legend

Sup coop. Saw u at HEB :)

yo coop my guy, which jetty u at?

Mantab kawan spot mancingnya 👍🎣

Was that Sargent again?!

September on the Port N. Jetty, they come in schools following the mullet. The fall run is a little early though this year. I caught one like that at Bob Hall Pier, on my mitchell 300 with 10 lb line when fishing for Spanish macs. Unfortunately, the light line litterally worried it to death instead of bringing it in easily for release.

New sub ! Liked 😊🙌✌️😊

What was that music?

That music is 😂😂😂

What reel is that?

Was this in August

Go to the florida keys and fly fish for them monster silver kings one day in your life.

I’ve lost 20 tarpon in the past two years… one 6 footer and a bunch of 4 footers I need a tarpon so bad😂😭💀 a couple a days ago I was 2 feet away from landing a 4 and a half foot poon

Elden ring music was epic

Is this in Corpus Christi?

Which jetty is this?

i was curious about Texas regulations and was very surprised to find out that you can actually keep one tarpon per day in Texas! Very surprised. Lol BUT- it has to be 85 inches minimum length😂. Go figure. Might as well make it a catch and release only like Florida does. But dang. If I ever catch a 85 inch tarpon you can bet I’m gonna keep it and eat it! Hahaha thems the rules, so hate at me. Lol but the probability of me ever actually doing that is like, zero percent. So I will always catch and release a tarpon.

is that the league of legends theme? lol. I thought my computer was tripping cuz I had league open in the background.

you gotta fix that “glitch” in the mic😂

Can anyone tell me the rod and reel combo he caught the tarpon with?

Elden ring theme music 👌

“DOA shrimp”…my mans inside said…don’t be an ahole bro….what did you really throw?!?🤪

thought i had my elden ring open in the background at first

Any gators up there yet?
