And this is why there's a rule against posting anything political in this thread. Many of us are mature enough to take it in stride, but there's always at least one guy that just has to start shit.

Well said and I couldn't agree more. I encourage anyone here to give it a shot if they are able and curious; if you're ever in the Keys, find a back country guide and do a half day for tarpon. Stick with medium or heavy weight spinning gear until you know what you're dealing with, then give it a try on light tackle or break out the fly rod.
Tarpon can reach 200lbs, don't tire from jumping out of the water like other fish do, and aren't exactly stupid either. Before I left the Keys for college, I went out for a day of fishing with my dad. We slammed the permit and bones that day, but the highlight of the trip was the 140+ lb tarpon he hooked with a live pinfish, who then proceeded to pull our skiff against the current towards a channel for more than an hour. After he had had enough of playing tuna, the tarpon decided it was time to dance and went skyward. The third jump was particularly high and acrobatic, and even though dad "bowed to the king" like he was supposed to, the tarpon's angle of descent gave his plates a clean shot at the leader and sure enough, pop went 120lb mono, cut in one pass like it wasn't even there. I dare anyone to go after them and not have a great time. Especially if you a fresh water-only kind of guy, used to chasing bass or trout.


Yep, tarpon rule. But they have it hard enough as it is with sharks just waiting for them to get hooked. Considering how much revenue the species brings down there, and how they are regarded by the locals and captains, I'm surprised the guy didn't get slapped with a beer bottle. Would have been nice to see someone there grab that guy by the ankles and just 'wheel borrow' his ass right on in. Hey, you wanted to get cuddly with the fish, there you go fuckwad! Bill's in the mail!

It's on my bucket list for sure. Trying to tie into a Tiger Muskie on a fly rod up here in WA currently. Mean bastards. Tarpon are mesmerizing. Easily one of the greatest game fish in the world.

That gif with the pedestrian illustrates why you should never stop in the middle of the road. The cop's view was obstructed by the other car, which I assume had the right of way and should've kept going.

I hate it when people stop on a multi-lane road to let a pedestrian cross. Or a car out of a parking lot. Yes, even when I'm the pedestrian or car...I have to try and wave them off with a 'thanks-but-no-thanks'...if they would just keep going, traffic wouldn't be congested and my opportunity to cross/pull out would come much sooner. And I wouldn't have to risk someone in the other lane plowing into me.

The law in most places is all traffic must stop if there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk.
