I had the pleasure of taking out Tom & Kim from California for some tarpon and snook fishing. Tom figured.

Fort Lauderdale would be a good place that both of them would enjoy and catch some big fish. Tome did a great job and caught some really nice snook but Kim had the luck on her side. We had our lines in the water less than 20 minutes when Kim hooks into a 100lb tarpon. The fish was truly spectacular, jumping in the clear blue water off Fort Lauderdale Beach numerous times. Kim did a great job fighting the fish and the fish was leadered next to the boat. She also landed a trophy snook that night.

Beautiful fish with beautiful people how can you beat that.

Thanks for traveling all that way to fish with the Lunkerdog.

Good luck out there and be careful!
