Good luck! Tarpon are a real adrenaline rush. Over the last 3 years I've seen a bunch, hooked several (all on the guide's 12 wt), but haven't landed any (yet). They either cut me off (they have some rough patches deep in their throat) or throw the fly on a jump. When a 100+ pounder comes clear of the water 50 ft from the boat and tail walks, it takes a week to get your heart rate back to normal.
