Slow Motion Tarpon Hit

While tarpon fishing in Key West, we got close up film of Tarpon of how a tarpon eats a 10inch Hogy Original. We shot this at a local marina and hooks were not used. Way Cool!

All- We thought shooting from the marina would give us an angle that would otherwise be very difficult to replicate on the flats. It's not everyday you see a tarpon hit from directly above. Yes, those marina fish will eat anything. No, hooks were not used. We were just trying to get a birds eye view, that's all. Nothing more. Over and out. -Hogy

Close. It was a " hookless" Hogy. Only way we could get a shot from above. I thought it was an interesting perspective. That's all...
