Hilton Head Island Fishing Off The Hook Charters
8/26 Monster Tarpon!

August 25, 2010 
What a awesome tarpon my client Chris Swenson from Atlanta, GA caught. The fight lasted a 
little over a hour and the fish jumped a good 8 times on the initial hook up and few more right 
before we boated the fish. I estimated the tarpon to weigh somewhere in the 120 pound range. 
This was Chris's first tarpon caught in South Carolina and his biggest of all time! 
The fish was released and swam away to fight another day.

The afternoon fishing was red hot with the Derryck family and they had a great trip 
catching some big redfish on the low tide flats!

Another day of dodging thunderstorms but fortunately I got my trips in with just a few drops of rain.
This a great shot of my client Steve Gaylord with his first of the 7 nice redfish we caught this afternoon.

Here are some great pic's from the past few days of my clients with
some real nice catches fishing in the backwater creeks and sounds.
The fishing has been great for redfish, trout, flounder, sharks and
big jacks. The tarpon fishing should be great this week..can't wait!

The past few days have been a little iffy with the weather. Lots of rain and clouds
which have been well needed and has been a nice little break from the heat of the sun.
The light tackle action in the creeks has been great for redfish, lady fish and big
bonnet head sharks.

The high tides for tailing redfish have been incredible the past few days with tide heights
well over 8.0ft. I happened to  have a cancelation yesterday and got a chance to go fun fish 
and try out  my new Sage 7wt. Xi3 and Tibor Everglades set up. I went to a new spot and 
there were tailing reds every where! This pic is from my third cast with my new set up and
was a nice little red to start off the day!
