Saturday, 6/18/11 … trout, mackerel and a 9-10′ hammerhead

Took some youngsters out today and we caught trout & mackerel.

Then we looked for tarpon off the beach.  We saw some, but had no bites.

On the ride in, we saw a 9-10 foot hammerhead shark off Blind Pass, about a mile out.  We tried to catch him, but had no luck.

The video above will give you a sense of why you always have to be aware of hammerheads when you are tarpon fishing.

Fair winds and following seas,
