I have a 6wt fly reel, broke my rod but I am going to replace it. I imagine that is enough for tarpon?

2020-12-03 04:28:31 UTC  

Snook are like bass on steroids, and tarpon are snook on steroids

2020-12-03 04:29:17 UTC  

so maybe not then xD

2020-12-03 04:29:23 UTC  

6 is way too low

2020-12-03 04:29:36 UTC  

10-12 size is better

2020-12-03 04:29:47 UTC  

oh jeez, I was thinking an 8

2020-12-03 04:29:51 UTC  

Nope

2020-12-03 04:30:12 UTC  

Oh and tarpon get up to 200 pounds so...

2020-12-03 04:30:22 UTC

2020-12-03 04:30:43 UTC

2020-12-03 04:30:58 UTC  

jeez, i didnt think snook got that big

2020-12-03 04:31:05 UTC  

I figured maybe 40

2020-12-03 04:31:29 UTC  

I think the world record was in Costa Rica

2020-12-03 04:31:37 UTC  

sounds about right.

2020-12-03 04:32:36 UTC  

Dude when I fish this place and a tarpon swallows a mullet, it sounds like somebody threw a cinder block in water

DURING A COLD FRONT

2020-12-03 04:37:56 UTC  

What kind of fish do you catch up in VA?

2020-12-03 04:38:08 UTC  

this is the only time we got snow the last time we were in Texas, but we were only there two years. It was gone by the time the sun was over the horizon fully.
