You’ll curse yourself if you lose a lifetime tarpon because your reel’s drag breaks or you don’t have the spine on the rod to tire the fish.
Also, if you’re interested in coming on our annual SW Alaska fly fishing trip in early to mid September, drop me a PM. We are already setting up next year’s trip.

I get to pick our summer vacation next year....so will I pick something beachy and carribbean (for tarpon fishing) or something moutnainy and cool (for trout fishing)? Because every vacation I choose has fishing at the root and I always take a day or two to myeslf for that.
