Hammerhead Shark attacks Tarpon on video in Florida Keys.

Whoa… Don’t know what’s better, caching the tarpon or watching the shark…
Nice!

How about those rednecks saying" oh, how sad!"!

Try to catch the professional tarpon series on one of the Fox channels (FL I think) and you will see a lot of this. Really big hammerheads and bull sharks.

I thought a Tarpon was a name of a kayak so I kept looking for ther kayak....

LOL.

Matt! Welcome back, brother.

Matt- stop smoking the bad stuff 

guitarzan, what do you mean "those" rednecks,  .

that must have been something to see in person. the 100+lb tarpon looked big until that hammerhead
came on it. shark was fast too.

a hammerhead killed a swimmer in the late fifties in la jolla. might not be a GWS, but it's no thresher either.

I stayed in the keys for a couple months april & may 2004, big pine key.  the boat in the house across the
canal was called the 'bada bing'. they spoke on a satellite phone in the backyard a lot. in italian.   

some crazy good fishing there.  I didn't really know what I was doing but I still caught a pile of fish, including
a small (around 70lb) tarpon from a bridge (wore out 40lb leader after a lot of runs and jumps).

and sharks or not, the snorkeling is insane. I saw a school of 6-8 foot long tarpon in a huge donut shaped
school,  it is some kind of tarpon mating thing I heard.

The setup is also actually pretty excellent for a fly in fishing vacation.

you can rent a 2 bedroom house with a backyard slip for a month for $1800 and a  nice new
20.5' 90hp boat for $200 a day (they park it in your slip) and absolutely fish your brains out if you wanted to. 

met a kayaker who liked to catch big sharks and tarpon from his kayak. lemon sharks I think. 

the scenery is nonexistant, all flat scrubland. I'd probably still choose baja, but it's a cool alternative.
