hi maxine , i live very close to the skyway bridge at the mouth of tampa
bay . i couldnt possibly recommend a better fishing spot for HUGE tarpon !! right now they are lined up aong the pier (old bridge) like cord wood ....... the entire 7 miles of pier mind you . and as for 100 lbs ...... sorry but that aint nothing .. even my 4 y/o has hooked a silver king .... heehee proud mom here ! but then again youre going for ultra light tackle you might want a smaller fish . an amusing story .... a few weeks ago , i think about two weeks , a young man was pulled right over the side of the skyway ! he hooked into something large . i suspect a good size tarpon or possibly a shark , and goliath grouper arnt unheard of at the bridge . the coast guard had to come recue him as the tides rip thru there . when asked what happened he said " its a brand new pole !!! i couldnt let go of it !!" the coast gaurd said when they picked him up from the pilings he was still holding his brand new rod , lol . this guy btw weighed over 275 so you can imagine the size of the fish that pulled him over !!! ................................ best to all , Nan |
